Dine like Da Vinci, unleash your inner diva – 101 ways the arts can slightly improve your life

The Guardian

If you're seeing something long and challenging, remember that having an alcoholic drink beforehand is asking for trouble. So be sure to do it. Decorate a room as if you're a set designer, letting your imagination run wild. As William Morris said, bin whatever isn't useful or beautiful. Study your favourite standup and learn their best joke off by heart. It's not just about making your friends laugh: comedy teaches confidence and communication. From Evan Hansen to Alexander Hamilton to Mary Poppins, find a character whose feelings mirror yours – then unleash that emotion. Improvisation isn't just some zany thing comedians do on telly. It's a philosophy, as Pippa Evans' recent book Improv Your Life shows. When you're thrown a curveball, deviate from your standard script.

Hear from top leaders discuss topics surrounding AL/ML technology, conversational AI, IVA, NLP, Edge, and more. Ankit Sirmorya, Amazon's machine learning (ML) engineering manager, is an emerging thought leader in the artificial intelligence (AI) and ML space. He serves as the community lead for Global AI Hub, a group dedicated to AI that is growing at a rapid pace. He reviews software engineering and data science-related books and provides feedback after in-depth analysis. Sirmorya also has a YouTube channel, Tech Takshila, which has a worldwide audience.


Active Audio-Visual Separation of Dynamic Sound Sources

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

We explore active audio-visual separation for dynamic sound sources, where an embodied agent moves intelligently in a 3D environment to continuously isolate the time-varying audio stream being emitted by an object of interest. The agent hears a mixed stream of multiple audio sources (e.g., multiple people conversing and a band playing music at a noisy party). Given a limited time budget, it needs to extract the target sound accurately at every step using egocentric audio-visual observations. We propose a reinforcement learning agent equipped with a novel transformer memory that learns motion policies to control its camera and microphone to recover the dynamic target audio, using self-attention to make high-quality estimates for current timesteps and also simultaneously improve its past estimates. Using highly realistic acoustic SoundSpaces [14] simulations in real-world scanned Matterport3D [12] environments, we show that our model is able to learn efficient behavior to carry out continuous separation of a dynamic audio target.


Unsupervised Speaker Diarization that is Agnostic to Language, Overlap-Aware, and Tuning Free

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Podcasts are conversational in nature and speaker changes are frequent -- requiring speaker diarization for content understanding. We propose an unsupervised technique for speaker diarization without relying on language-specific components. The algorithm is overlap-aware and does not require information about the number of speakers. Our approach shows 79% improvement on purity scores (34% on F-score) against the Google Cloud Platform solution on podcast data.

FICO Announces Winners of Inaugural xML Challenge

#artificialintelligence

FICO, the leading provider of analytics and decision management technology, together with Google and academics at UC Berkeley, Oxford, Imperial, UC Irvine and MIT, have announced the winners of the first xML Challenge at the 2018 NeurIPS workshop on Challenges and Opportunities for AI in Financial Services. Participants were challenged to create machine learning models with both high accuracy and explainability using a real-world dataset provided by FICO. Sanjeeb Dash, Oktay Gu nlu k and Dennis Wei, representing IBM Research, were this year's challenge winners. The winning team received the highest score in an empirical evaluation method that considered how useful explanations are for a data scientist with the domain knowledge in the absence of model prediction, as well as how long it takes for such a data scientist to go through the explanations. For their achievements, the IBM team earned a $5,000 prize.


A Story About the Digital Revolution

#artificialintelligence

The Digital Revolution timeline refers to the shift from mechanical devices and analogue electronic technology to digital electronics as a means of storing, transferring and utilizing information. This era started during the 1980s and is ongoing. The Digital Revolution is called the beginning of the Information Era. This is the starting point of what we refer to as the digital revolution which began in the second half of the 20th century. Digital revolution example is the adoption and increase of digital computers and digital storage of information.
