Reducing bullying with AI-powered WatsomApp on the IBM Cloud

#artificialintelligence

Bullying is a serious issue in schools around the world, and the growing popularity of social media can make it harder than ever for victims to find safe spaces. Bullying can lead to low self-esteem, isolation and depression. Even though its effects are very serious, bullying goes unnoticed by a student's parents and teachers for an average of nine months. The goal for WatsomApp, a startup based in Spain, is to prevent and reduce harassment in the classroom. WatsomApp's founders knew that identifying and addressing bullying faster would improve children's learning experiences and quality of life.

Find 16 colors out of millions of colors (24 bit to 4 bit reduction) which represents a picture best, using unsupervised learning algorithm K-means for clustering. You can see the result of my programming exercise at the top. Nice example to visualize how you can reduce highly dimensional problem spaces into something which a computer can handle better without losing the core information.


Few Machine Learning Problems (with Python implementation)

#artificialintelligence

This problem also appeared as an assignment problem in the coursera online course Mathematics for Machine Learning: Multivariate Calculus. The description of the problem is taken from the assignment itself. In this assignment, we shall train a neural network to draw a curve. The curve takes one input variable, the amount traveled along the curve from 0 to 1, and returns 2 outputs, the 2D coordinates of the position of points on the curve. The below table shows the first few rows of the dataset.


5 Expert Tips to Make Machine Learning Development Work for You - N-iX

#artificialintelligence

We can see a lot of hype about AI and Machine Learning, and its potential to transform businesses. More and more ัompanies are adopting machine learning solutions, setting up accelerators, opening R&D centers, and investing into startups. On the other hand, there are many companies that are using old-fashioned data analytics tools and labeling them as AI. Also,there is a large number of reports with AI market estimates and forecasts. However, it's challenging to get the right information on machine learning development that will actually work for your business. As a company that has delivered successful Machine Learning and Data Science solutions across such industries as Healthcare, Aviation, Media and Entertainment, and Technology, we've decided to talk with our experts and collect top guidelines for making your machine learning development project work.


Start-up SpotDraft tests new waters with AI-powered business

#artificialintelligence

CHENNAI: Drafting legal contracts -- be it employment documents or the highly complex merger agreements -- has been a constant pain for larger corporates. For smaller enterprises that may not be able to hire legal organisations to vet such documents in detail, it is even harder to manage and map laws to particular contracts. With the development of Artificial Intelligence, legal contract mapping and management has been automated to a large extent and is turning out to be an area of growth for technology start-ups such as SpotDraft, which makes about $5 million in revenue every month. Amid Indian players like VakilSearch, Legal Desk and Near Law, SpotDraft is one of the first few to provide contract management services using Artificial Intelligence. The legal tech start-up, founded by Harvard Law School graduate Shashank Bijapur, along with Madhav Bhagat, a former software developer at Google, looks to expand its operations from its home base in India to European countries, Singapore and Hong Kong, among others, this year to cash in on the rapid growth in the $80 billion contract automation market.


Cousins of Artificial Intelligence โ€“ Towards Data Science

#artificialintelligence

Artificial Intelligence is a broader umbrella under which Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) comes. Diagram shows, ML is subset of AI and DL is subset of ML. AI is composed of 2 words Artificial and intelligence. Anything which is not natural and created by humans is artificial. Intelligence means ability to understand, reason, plan etc.


Responsible Community Pilot Program Launched To Train Drone Pilots

#artificialintelligence

Various companies collaborate for better future, and International Association of Community Drone Pilots (IACDP) is partnering with a drone pilot community, DroneUp to launch the Responsible Community Pilot program. The RCP program focuses on engaging drone pilots through training, certification, idea-sharing and community. The program will also cover online courses and exams, standard of conduct and detailed safety guidelines. "Our efforts to build this community through training and a sense of purpose are having dramatic positive effects on ensuring air safety," says Tom Walker, CEO and founder of DroneUp. "IACDP is motivated by a desire to make a positive impact on the industry," says John Evans, President of IACDP.


Forces of change

#artificialintelligence

The future of work signifies the opportunity to evolve our workforces and workplaces. This evolution is being shaped by two powerful forces: the growing adoption of artificial intelligence in the workplace and the expansion of the workforce to include both on- and off-balance-sheet talent, often referred to as the open talent continuum. These shifts could lead us to reconsider the roles of individuals, organizations, and societies at work. From the individual nine-to-five workday to how entire industries function, work seems to be changing faster than ever. Big shifts threaten to create massive societal and economic disruption unless we look seriously at making the future of work productive and rewarding for everyone.

Nonlocal Neural Networks, Nonlocal Diffusion and Nonlocal Modeling

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Nonlocal neural networks have been proposed and shown to be effective in several computer vision tasks, where the nonlocal operations can directly capture long-range dependencies in the feature space. In this paper, we study the nature of diffusion and damping effect of nonlocal networks by doing the spectrum analysis on the weight matrices of the well-trained networks, and propose a new formulation of the nonlocal block. The new block not only learns the nonlocal interactions but also has stable dynamics and thus allows deeper nonlocal structures. Moreover, we interpret our formulation from the general nonlocal modeling perspective, where we make connections between the proposed nonlocal network and other nonlocal models, such as nonlocal diffusion processes and nonlocal Markov jump processes.
