How I Qualified for DataScienceNigeria 2019 Artificial Intelligence Bootcamp.
Good day, The biggest AI bootcamp in Nigeria is here! Will you be part of the best of the best who will make it to the all-expense paid residential Artificial Intelligence Bootcamp?... This was a mail I received on September 24 from Data Science Nigeria. And below is a snippet of what I got on Data Science Nigeria's website today. I started my programming journey back in September, 2018 with the most highly rated course on Udemy courtesy of my mentor, Fakorede Abiola.
The AI Skills Shortage - ITChronicles
The robots are coming โ for jobs. This is the plain, cold, hard fact we now face as we head towards the third decade of the 21st Century. The technology-driven world in which we now live is one filled with promise โ cars that drive themselves, algorithms that respond to customer service inquiries, automated business intelligence on tap. Yet, this brave new world is also filled with challenges. For even as AI and automation increase productivity and improve our lives, their widespread adoption means that many work activities humans currently perform will soon be displaced โ if they haven't been already. What this doesn't mean, however, is that there will be a shortage of jobs in the future.

Humans taught a robot how to be a teaching assistant in just 3 hours
Striking the right balance between robot autonomy and human control is a core challenge in social robotics, in both technical and ethical terms. On the one hand, extended robot autonomy offers the potential for increased human productivity and for the off-loading of physical and cognitive tasks. On the other hand, making the most of human technical and social expertise, as well as maintaining accountability, is highly desirable. This is particularly relevant in domains such as medical therapy and education, where social robots hold substantial promise, but where there is a high cost to poorly performing autonomous systems, compounded by ethical concerns. We present a field study in which we evaluate SPARC (supervised progressively autonomous robot competencies), an innovative approach addressing this challenge whereby a robot progressively learns appropriate autonomous behavior from in situ human demonstrations and guidance. Using online machine learning techniques, we demonstrate that the robot could effectively acquire legible and congruent social policies in a high-dimensional child-tutoring situation needing only a limited number of demonstrations while preserving human supervision whenever desirable. By exploiting human expertise, our technique enables rapid learning of autonomous social and domain-specific policies in complex and nondeterministic environments. Last, we underline the generic properties of SPARC and discuss how this paradigm is relevant to a broad range of difficult human-robot interaction scenarios.
Booming STEM careers in virtual reality, artificial intelligence, and software engineering
November 8 is National STEM Day, a day celebrating science, technology, engineering, and math. The STEM field of 20 years ago looks very different than the one of today and will look very different in even just five years. Inspired by the air shows he saw growing up, Bill Marx went into the aerospace field in the mid-90s. Now, he is the chief technology officer at Intuitive Research and Technology Corporation. "A lot of the stuff you used to use a supercomputer for 30 years ago," Marx said.
Teaching machine learning through robot application development on AWS Amazon Web Services
Today, machine learning influences research and consumer products and is leading to breakthroughs across industries like healthcare, manufacturing, finance, and retail. In the field of reinforcement learning, machine learning meets the real world when applied to robotics. Knowing this, how can we ensure students are skilled and prepared to leverage the power of this technology? Intermind Co. is an education group bringing academic programs from leading universities on subjects like machine learning and artificial intelligence to international college students. We recently created a project-based learning experience around the use of Robot Operating System (ROS), the leading open-source framework for writing robot software, and AWS RoboMaker, a service that helps develop, test, and deploy intelligent robotics applications at scale.
Adaptive versus Standard Descent Methods and Robustness Against Adversarial Examples
Since this phenomenon was first observed, researchers have attempted to develop methods which produce models that are robust to adversarial perturbations under specific attack models (Wong and Kolter (2018); Sinha et al. (2018); Raghunathan et al. (2018); Mirman et al. (2018); Madry et al. (2018); Zhang et al. (2019)). As machine learning proliferates into society, including security-critical settings like health care (Esteva et al. (2017)) or autonomous vehicles (Codevilla et al. (2018)), it is crucial to develop methods that allow us to understand the vulnerability of our models and design appropriate countermeasures. Additionally there is a growing literature on the theory of adversarial examples. Many of these results attempt to understand adversarial examples by constructing examples of learning problems for which it is difficult to construct a classifier that is robust to adversarial perturbations. This difficultly may arise due to sample complexity (Schmidt et al. (2018)), computational constraints (Bubeck et al. (2019); Degwekar et al. (2019)), or the high-dimensional geometry of the initial feature space (Shafahi et al. (2019); Khoury and Hadfield-Menell (2018)).
