Thales and Atos create the European champion in big data and artificial intelligence for defence and security
Paris, May 27, 2021 – Atos and Thales announce the creation of Athea, a joint venture that will develop a sovereign big data and artificial intelligence platform for public and private sector players in the defence, intelligence and internal state security communities. Athea will draw on the experience gained by both companies from the demonstration phase of the ARTEMIS programme, the big data platform of the French Ministry of Armed Forces. The contract to optimise and prepare the full-scale roll-out of the ARTEMIS platform was also awarded jointly to the two leaders by the French Defense Procurement Agency on April 30, 2021. The new joint venture will initially serve the French market before addressing European requirements at a later date. With the exponential rise in the number of sources of information, and increased pressure to respond more quickly to potential issues, State agencies need to manage ever-greater volumes of heterogeneous data and accelerate the development of new AI applications where security and sovereignty are key.
Popular Sci-Fi Movies that Showed the Glimpse of NLP Technology
Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a technology that is embedded in almost every machine learning device. Voice assistants that we use on a daily basis like Siri and Alexa also use NLP to understand our commands. Basically, NLP allows the device to hear what you say, understand it, and act on it. This technology is a part of artificial intelligence and enables devices to understand the human language. So, it is safe to say that NLP is all around us, in mobile applications, in smart home devices, and in movies too.
[D] Machine Learning - WAYR (What Are You Reading) - Week 113
This is a place to share machine learning research papers, journals, and articles that you're reading this week. If it relates to what you're researching, by all means elaborate and give us your insight, otherwise it could just be an interesting paper you've read. Please try to provide some insight from your understanding and please don't post things which are present in wiki. Preferably you should link the arxiv page (not the PDF, you can easily access the PDF from the summary page but not the other way around) or any other pertinent links. Besides that, there are no rules, have fun.
