Gradient Boosted Trees? Deep Learning? In less than 5 minutes? You Bet! RapidMiner
As most of you are already aware, RapidMiner is a kick-ass platform offering pretty much everything you need for doing data science in a very efficient way. But what you don't know is that … RapidMiner Studio just got even more awesome! Wait… is this even possible? Well, it was no easy task – but we have done it: Introducing RapidMiner Studio 7.2. Let's take a look at some of the new features: We've added 4 new algorithms for machine learning, and I am still having a hard time figuring out which one I like the most: Naturally, I gave them a test run on some data sets, and was pretty freakin' impressed with the prediction accuracy, automatic tuning capabilities, and runtimes.
Machine learning versus spam
Machine learning methods are often presented by developers of security solutions as a silver bullet, or a magic catch-all technology that will protect users from a huge range of threats. But just how justified are these claims? Unless explanations are provided as to where and how exactly these technologies are used, these assertions appear to be little more than a marketing ploy. For many years, machine learning technology has been a working component of Kaspersky Lab's security products, and our firm belief is that they must not be seen as a super technology capable of combating all threats. Yes, they are a highly effective protection tool, but just one tool among many.
Information Extraction with Stanford NLP
Open information extraction (open IE) refers to the extraction of structured relation triples from plain text, such that the schema for these relations does not need to be specified in advance. For example, Barack Obama was born in Hawaii would create a triple (Barack Obama; was born in; Hawaii), corresponding to the open domain relation "was born in". The system first splits each sentence into a set of entailed clauses. Each clause is then maximally shortened, producing a set of entailed shorter sentence fragments. These fragments are then segmented into OpenIE triples, and output by the system.

Google AI On Raspberry Pi? Yes Please!
Google has been working on a number of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning projects for some time. Now its looking to bring some of this technology to Raspberry Pi to help the maker community create smart devices. While its original purpose was to provide low-cost computers to underprivileged children, the Raspberry Pi range has been embraced by the maker community. Many people have already been using Raspberry Pi computers for home-made electronics and robotics projects. "Google's range of AI and machine learning technology could enable makers to build even more powerful projects," according to a blog post by the Raspberry Pi Foundation. It said Google is planning to bring some AI and machine learning tools to the Raspberry Pi platform this year but will need some directions from the maker community.
The Rise Of The Chatbot: 10 Easy Tips For Launching Your Own
Communicating with customers is at the top of many a business' list of things to do right. Point of contact can make or break a company, so setting up easy, quick engagement strategies is paramount. But still, many large companies are using email or telephone as their main contact strategy, even though messaging has been proven to be much preferable for billions of people. Those companies in the know have started to use chatbots to field the FAQs and cut down call center times, but chatbots can be limited in their use cases and complicated to set up. Palo Alto company OwnerListens has bridged the gaps in chatbot marketing strategy by linking them with already existing messaging platforms, helping businesses and customers instant message with each other safely and at scale. I was able to speak with Adi Bittan, Founder and CEO of OwnerListens, to get her advice on the biggest challenges with chatbots, and how to circumvent them.
ALDI – A New Paradigm for Integrating Marketing Analytics with Data Science
Owing to the data deluge and the Cambrian explosion of machine learning techniques over the past decade, one might have expected the transformation of marketing strategy into a predominantly quantitative discipline by now. The fact that it hasn't happened yet, and the observation that marketing is still influenced by a lot of qualitative inputs can be ascribed to two reasons, in my opinion. The first and principal reason continues to be institutional inertia. Second, there is a significant communication and knowledge gap between data scientists and marketers, owing to their relative lack of familiarity with the other side's perspectives and paradigms. The successful marketer of the next decade is someone who is conversant with management theories of Kotler[1] as well as machine learning advances by Hinton[2]/LeCun[3]/ Ng[4].
Product recommendations in Digital Age
Since then, as Digital tsunami flooded, there are tons of websites selling everything on web but these two are still going great because of their product recommendations. We as customers, love that personal touch and feeling special, whether it's being greeted by name when we walk into the store, a shop owner remembering our birthday, helping us personally to bays where products are kept, or being able to customize a website to our needs. It can make us feel like we are single most important customer. But in an online world, there is no Bob or Sandra to guide you through the product you may like. This is where recommendation engines do a fantastic job.
Artificial Intelligence helps scientists gain insight into cancer biophysics
A team of scientists has used artificial intelligence (AI) to gain insight into the biophysics of cancer with their machine-learning platform predicting a trio of reagents that generated a cancer-like phenotype in tadpoles. The research, reported in journal Scientific Reports, showed that during these extensive experiments, the biologists observed that all the melanocytes -- a mature melanin-forming cell -- in a single frog larva either converted to the cancer-like form or remained completely normal. In their study, the researchers asked their AI-derived model to answer the question of how to achieve partial melanocyte conversion within the same animal using one or more interventions. "We wanted to see if we could break the concordance among cells, which would help us understand how cells make group decisions and determine complex body-wide outcomes," said Tufts University's Michael Levin, who is the paper's corresponding author. The AI model ultimately predicted that a precise combination of three reagents -- altanserin, a 5HTR2 inhibitor; reserpine, a VMAT inhibitor, and VP16-XlCreb1, mRNA encoding constitutively active CREB -- would achieve that outcome.
Where the Cloud Won't Work: Machine Learning for the Industrial Internet of Things - The New Stack
A quiet race is going on to set up the infrastructure needed for the industrial Internet of Things (IoT). It is generally agreed that the cloud model won't work to manage sensor data in real time, so instead hardware and network providers are rushing to evolve their technologies and sign up industrial customers to pilot and early implementation initiatives in edge processing. Stage one of the race is well underway, with the current focus on enabling edge processing on hardware gateways located in the field (factories, workplaces, cities, farms and buildings). To do that, many are leveraging Dockerized containers (and Moore's Law) to do more powerful data processing. Once this infrastructure has a little more robustness behind it, introducing machine learning (ML) at the edge will spark a second wave of the race.
