Introducing TensorWatch: Microsoft Research New Tool for Debugging Deep Learning Programs
Debugging is one of the most difficult aspects in the lifecycle of deep learning problems. The recent advancements in deep learning frameworks have lowered the entry point for creating really sophisticated models that are both effective and hard to interpret at the same time. Very often, researchers need to understand why the metrics of a specific model are trending in certain direction and they rely on relatively subjective techniques to do so. Additionally, the ecosystem of debugging and visualization tools hasn't evolved at the same speed of the development stacks so very often engineers end up creating models that are next to impossible to debug. Recently, Microsoft Research open sourced TensorWatch, a new tools that takes a new approach to solve the debugging and visualization of deep learning programs.
Penn State Students Earn $25,000 For Artificial Intelligence Work
The Nittany AI Alliance awarded three Penn State student teams a combined total of $25,000 on Tuesday, September 10 at the Nittany AI Challenge Celebration event. Students Christina Warren and Mathew Mancini developed Revu, a product designed to keep students engaged during reading assignments. Revu works by generating multiple-choice quizzes and other tests to measure comprehension of key concepts in order to keep students focused. Warren and Mancini won $15,000 for their product. In the future, they hope to add features that will generate flashcards, save quizzes and notes, and design a mode specifically for instructors.
Interview with Nathan Bruzat: Data Scientist interview
During my studies in engineering school in computer science, I had the opportunity to launch two entrepreneurship projects related to Machine Learning. The first is a project on the translation of sign languages into written languages through bracelets and an automated translation system. This project continues under the name of SignBand. Following my departure, I started to train in Machine Learning. I have taken several online courses and participated in several competitions on Kaggle and hackathons.
Machine learning python
With modern technology, such questions are no longer bound to creative conjecture. You have just found Keras. Today i will give a brief introduction over this topic which created headache for me when i was learning this. All video and text tutorials are free. I use Anaconda package that almost wraps up all the Python packages including Jupyter notebook.
DataRobot launches centralised machine learning hub
Enterprise AI service provider DataRobot has unveiled MLOps, a machine learning operations (MLOps) solution for deploying, monitoring, and managing machine learning models across the enterprise. MLOps combines DataRobot's existing model management and monitoring solution with capabilities from MLOps category leader ParallelM, which DataRobot acquired in June. DataRobot's new MLOps offering provides a centralised hub for deployment, monitoring, and governance of models created from a variety of tools. As a result, organisations will be able to cut the time it takes them to deploy and scale machine learning-based services in production. Despite the investments in data science teams and infrastructure, many companies have not been able to derive measurable value from AI projects.

This course is not part of my deep learning series, so it doesn't contain any hard math - just straight up coding in Python. This course is not part of my deep learning series, so there are no mathematical prerequisites - just straight up coding in Python. You'll start by preparing your environment for NLP and then quickly learn about language structure and how we can break sentences down to extract information and uncover the underlying meaning.
PDE-Inspired Algorithms for Semi-Supervised Learning on Point Clouds
Crook, Oliver M., Hurst, Tim, Schönlieb, Carola-Bibiane, Thorpe, Matthew, Zygalakis, Konstantinos C.
Given a data set and a subset of labels the problem of semi-supervised learning on point clouds is to extend the labels to the entire data set. In this paper we extend the labels by minimising the constrained discrete $p$-Dirichlet energy. Under suitable conditions the discrete problem can be connected, in the large data limit, with the minimiser of a weighted continuum $p$-Dirichlet energy with the same constraints. We take advantage of this connection by designing numerical schemes that first estimate the density of the data and then apply PDE methods, such as pseudo-spectral methods, to solve the corresponding Euler-Lagrange equation. We prove that our scheme is consistent in the large data limit for two methods of density estimation: kernel density estimation and spline kernel density estimation.
sZoom: A Framework for Automatic Zoom into High Resolution Surveillance Videos
Saini, Mukesh, Guthier, Benjamin, Kuang, Hao, Mahapatra, Dwarikanath, Saddik, Abdulmotaleb El
Current cameras are capable of recording high resolution video. While viewing on a mobile device, a user can manually zoom into this high resolution video to get more detailed view of objects and activities. However, manual zooming is not suitable for surveillance and monitoring. It is tiring to continuously keep zooming into various regions of the video. Also, while viewing one region, the operator may miss activities in other regions. In this paper, we propose sZoom, a framework to automatically zoom into a high resolution surveillance video. The proposed framework selectively zooms into the sensitive regions of the video to present details of the scene, while still preserving the overall context required for situation assessment. A multi-variate Gaussian penalty is introduced to ensure full coverage of the scene. The method achieves near real-time performance through a number of timing optimizations. An extensive user study shows that, while watching a full HD video on a mobile device, the system enhances the security operator's efficiency in understanding the details of the scene by 99% on the average compared to a scaled version of the original high resolution video. The produced video achieved 46% higher ratings for usefulness in a surveillance task.
