#artificialintelligence

Libraries like TensorFlow and PyTorch take care of most of the intricacies of building deep learning models that train and infer fast. Predictably, this leaves machine learning engineers spending most of their time on the next level up in abstraction, running hyperparameter search, validating performance, and versioning models and experiments to keep track of everything. If PyTorch and TensorFlow (and now JAX) are the deep learning cake, higher-level libraries are the icing. For years now TensorFlow has had its "icing on the cake" in the high-level Keras API, which became an official part of TensorFlow itself with the release of TF 2.0 in 2019. Similarly, PyTorch users have benefited from the high-level fastai library, which is exceptionally well-suited for efficiency and transfer learning.


Best Artificial Intelligence Learning Resources Online in 20

#artificialintelligence

The artificial intelligence market is booming, with an expected annual growth of 35.6% CAGR from 2021 to 2026. The demand for artificial intelligence experts is mounting as the economy widens and companies inflate their technology usage to improve their businesses. While this presents great opportunities for many to start a career in AI, gaining the in-demand skills can be a challenging task, especially when there is no guidance or conflicting guidance available. We have compiled a list of some of best online courses and Youtube channels which are freely available. Although various articles have published lists of top/best courses, most of them do not cater the requirement of the learners which could vary with their background.


Full Deep Learning Portfolio Project Part 2

#artificialintelligence

Every application needs a front-end. The front-end part is very important, because this is the part the user is going to interact with. The front-end for this project is developed using html. The html code is created in Code Pen. Code Pen is a webpage, where users can create and visualize their html code online in an interactive environment.


Transfer Learning: The Highest Leverage Deep Learning Skill You Can Learn.

#artificialintelligence

Transfer learning is a machine learning technique in which a model trained on a specific task is reused as part of the training process for another, different task. Here is a simple analogy to help you understand how transfer learning works: imagine that one person has learned everything there is to know about dogs. In contrast, another person has learned everything about cats. If both people are asked, "What's an animal with four legs, a tail, and barks?" The person who knows all about dogs would answer "dog" while the individual who knows everything about cats would say "cat."


How to stop Overfitting your ML and Deep Learning models

#artificialintelligence

Overfitting in machine learning and deep learning is a common problem. This is a result of the model being too biased toward the data and not generalizing well. In this article we will go through a few common ways to mitigate overfitting. We will use some of the most common overfitting solutions which can be used for Python or R, with a full example run-through with Python and Tensorflow. The most controversial way to stop overfitting a model is to reduce its complexity.


Hand Labeling Considered Harmful

#artificialintelligence

We are traveling through the era of Software 2.0, in which the key components of modern software are increasingly determined by the parameters of machine learning models, rather than hard-coded in the language of for loops and if-else statements. There are serious challenges with such software and models, including the data they're trained on, how they're developed, how they're deployed, and their impact on stakeholders. These challenges commonly result in both algorithmic bias and lack of model interpretability and explainability. There's another critical issue, which is in some ways upstream to the challenges of bias and explainability: while we seem to be living in the future with the creation of machine learning and deep learning models, we are still living in the Dark Ages with respect to the curation and labeling of our training data: the vast majority of labeling is still done by hand.

Unsolved ML safety problems

AIHub

Along with researchers from Google Brain and OpenAI, we are releasing a paper on Unsolved Problems in ML Safety. Due to emerging safety challenges in ML, such as those introduced by recent large-scale models, we provide a new roadmap for ML Safety and refine the technical problems that the field needs to address. As a preview of the paper, in this post we consider a subset of the paper's directions, namely withstanding hazards ("Robustness"), identifying hazards ("Monitoring"), and steering ML systems ("Alignment"). Robustness research aims to build systems that are less vulnerable to extreme hazards and to adversarial threats. Two problems in robustness are robustness to long tails and robustness to adversarial examples.


Deep Learning for Text Detection (Part2)

#artificialintelligence

Instance segmentation is the process of classifying each pixel in an image to one of N categories. Moreover, there also needs to be a distinction between pixels belonging to the same class but to different objects (we need to distinguish between a pixel belonging to person A and a pixel belonging to person B in the same image). Instance segmentation, just like object detection, is a general-purpose method that can be used for several tasks, not just text detection. In the following sections, we're going to look at some of the deep learning architectures that perform text detection using instance segmentation. Two famous instance segmentation techniques for text detection are based on Fully convolutional networks (FCN). FCN is an architecture that is based mainly on convolution layers and without the use of fully connected layers.


The Coming Convergence of NFTs and Artificial Intelligence

#artificialintelligence

Non-fungible tokens (NFT) are becoming one of the most important trends in the crypto ecosystem. The first generation of NFTs has focused on key properties such as ownership representation, transfer, automation as well as building the core building blocks of the NFT market infrastructure. The hype in the NFT market makes it relatively hard to distinguish signal versus noise when even the most simplistic form of NFTs are able to capture incredible value. But, as the space evolves, the value proposition of NFTs should go from static images or text to more dynamic and intelligent collectibles. Artificial intelligence (AI) is likely to have an impact in the next wave of NFTs.


Modern Computer Vision with PyTorch

#artificialintelligence

An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is a supervised learning algorithm that is loosely inspired by the way the human brain functions. Similar to the way neurons are connected and activated in the human brain, a neural network takes input and passes it through a function, resulting in certain subsequent neurons getting activated, and consequently producing the output. There are several standard ANN architectures. The universal approximation theorem says that we can always find a large enough neural network architecture with the right set of weights that can exactly predict any output for any given input. This means, for a given dataset/task we can create an architecture and keep adjusting its weights until the ANN predicts what we want it to predict.
