IAIED International AIED Society

AITopics Original Links

AIED is an interdisciplinary community at the frontiers of the fields of computer science, education and psychology. It promotes rigorous research and development of interactive and adaptive learning environments for learners of all ages, across all domains. The society brings together a community of members in the field through the organization of Conferences, a Journal, and other activities of interest. The International AIED Society is governed by an Executive Committee according to the IAIED Constitution, which seeks to support AI in Education developments throughout the international community. Membership statistics show that over 1000 members from 40 countries have joined since the Society's launch on January 1 1997.

How Fliplearn plans to flip the way students study in India

#artificialintelligence

The platform is providing a holistic online solution for teachers, students, and parents. Over two decades ago, Educomp set out to change the entire education system in the country. Since then, it claims to have empowered over 30 million learners and educators across over 65,000 schools. While Educomp was continuing to overhaul the education ecosystem through its smart class programmes, the top leadership in the company realised that they needed to take education beyond the conventional classrooms. Now, instead of taking students to classrooms, they had to flip the normal course and take classrooms to students, beyond boundaries.


Multitask diffusion adaptation over networks with common latent representations

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Online learning with streaming data in a distributed and collaborative manner can be useful in a wide range of applications. This topic has been receiving considerable attention in recent years with emphasis on both single-task and multitask scenarios. In single-task adaptation, agents cooperate to track an objective of common interest, while in multitask adaptation agents track multiple objectives simultaneously. Regularization is one useful technique to promote and exploit similarity among tasks in the latter scenario. This work examines an alternative way to model relations among tasks by assuming that they all share a common latent feature representation. As a result, a new multitask learning formulation is presented and algorithms are developed for its solution in a distributed online manner. We present a unified framework to analyze the mean-square-error performance of the adaptive strategies, and conduct simulations to illustrate the theoretical findings and potential applications.


Cloud World Thoughts on Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

#artificialintelligence

Recently, I joined many colleagues at Oracle Cloud World in New York and delivered a session on Oracle Analytics. This event provides an out-of-the-ordinary environment for me to connect with prospects, customers, and partners to learn about their use of analytics and their plans for the future. At the event, I spent some time with one of our global client advisors for a large multinational customer and talked strategy about his clients' plans for an artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) platform to support marketing analytics efforts. I also spoke with the analytics leader at a well-known higher-education institution; we discussed ways to segment its diverse population of analytics consumers as well as the prioritization of strategic needs for analytics--both important for updating the institution's analytics roadmap for the next five years. I also enjoyed getting feedback from attendees on our session's content.


How Artificial Intelligence Brings About Changes In Education

#artificialintelligence

Artificial Intelligence or AI was seen to change the field of education in the near future. Bots may be used to do tasks that usually require large workforce. Artificial intelligence can check millions of standardized tests and make learning materials in just a short time. IT can assist human instructors in online courses. Education experts supporting AI sees the following changes in the field of education, according to Venture Beat.


Deep Learning and Machine Learning Guide: Part I - DZone Big Data

Step 6 is to look at cool projects. Eigenfaces and facial recognition are really cool use cases and have many practical security applications.


Deep Learning for Natural Language Processing

#artificialintelligence

This is an advanced course on natural language processing. Automatically processing natural language inputs and producing language outputs is a key component of Artificial General Intelligence. The ambiguities and noise inherent in human communication render traditional symbolic AI techniques ineffective for representing and analysing language data. This will be an applied course focussing on recent advances in analysing and generating speech and text using recurrent neural networks. We will introduce the mathematical definitions of the relevant machine learning models and derive their associated optimisation algorithms.


Pay pros for lessons on sucking less at video games

Losing to a 12-year-old in Super Smash Bros. can be a real downer, but there are a few ways to prevent that. You can challenge kids who aren't as good, practice and improve on your own, or, if you have a few bucks to spend, get a video game tutor from Japanese company GameLesson. The service, which doesn't yet have a launch date, promises coaching for games like Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Splatoon, Street Fighter V, and Shadowverse. These titles are big in the increasingly competitive eSports scene, which has been especially popular in Japan. Tutors will go directly to the homes of customers in Osaka and Tokyo, while online training is available everywhere else in the world.
