Artificial Intelligence Students Are Learning These Skills
Uninformed Search: This is used when creating an action sequence that doesn't account for any changes along the way. Heuristic Functions: These allow for decisions to be made without accurate or complete information. Adversarial or Moving Agent Search: This is used when there are other entities making decisions that influence one another. Piotr Gmytrasiewicz, associate professor in the department of computer science at the University of Illinois at Chicago, teaches three courses: Artificial Intelligence 1, Artificial Intelligence 2 and Applied Artificial Intelligence. Artificial Intelligence 1 covers logic-based approaches, while Artificial Intelligence 2 showcases numerical and mathematically focused approaches based on probability theory.
Who sets the agenda on algorithmic accountability?
A discussion on algorithmic accountability and transparency is missing from Europe's digital economy framework. Citizens need assurances that machines are treating them fairly, writes Liisa Jaakonsaari. Algorithms are the fundamental, invisible building blocks of our digital societies. However, there is currently no legislation, best practice or guidance on algorithmic accountability or transparency. A dialogue among tech companies, consumers and regulators is urgently needed not only in Europe, but globally, to ensure that algorithms are audited and that citizens' rights are safeguarded.
Forget chatbots, KLM banks on a hybrid of humans and machines
Dutch airline KLM has partnered with DigitalGenius to help incorporate machine learning into its customer service, but humans are in no way getting replaced. Robots remain a common theme in the'who will take your job?' discussions accompanying much of the debate about the future of work. However, very few have looked at the complementary rather than the industrial, revolutionary side of things. Monotonous, mundane tasks have forever come under attack from technology, with machines now operating across most manufacturing lines – though that doesn't mean we should all fear change. Take customer care, for example: it's something that seems menial, but would struggle to fully work on automation.
Moving machine learning from practice to production
With growing interest in neural networks and deep learning, individuals and companies are claiming ever-increasing adoption rates of artificial intelligence into their daily workflows and product offerings. Coupled with breakneck speeds in AI-research, the new wave of popularity shows a lot of promise for solving some of the harder problems out there. That said, I feel that this field suffers from a gulf between appreciating these developments and subsequently deploying them to solve "real-world" tasks. A number of frameworks, tutorials and guides have popped up to democratize machine learning, but the steps that they prescribe often don't align with the fuzzier problems that need to be solved. This post is a collection of questions (with some (maybe even incorrect) answers) that are worth thinking about when applying machine learning in production.
llSourcell/genetic_algorithm_challenge
This is the code for Genetic Algorithms by @Sirajology on Youtube. In this demo code we use the MAGIC Gamma Telescope dataset to build a classifer. The classifier will train on the dataset and then be able to classify whether or not some energy is either Gamma Radiation or Hadron Radiation. Instead of guessing and checking the best ML model and hyperparameters to use, we use a genetic programming library called tpot to do that for us by trying out a bunch of them. See this link for an IPython notebook version of this code.
Machine Learning: Can a Computer Judge a Book By Its Cover?
And could software design book covers that could be judged--correctly--by humans? Research in Japan says maybe. 'Designed To Be Judged' At At MIT Technology Review, an article from looks at work being done by Brian Kenji Iwana and Seiichi Uchida at Kyushu University in Japan. According to the report, they've trained a deep neural network to study book covers--to see if the network can identify genre. "Book covers are designed to give readers an idea of the content," after all, the report points out. "Good book covers are designed to be judged.
