Compact edge AI box runs Ubuntu Server on 24-core Arm SoC with choice of NPUs
Like most embedded system manufacturers, Vecow focuses on Intel-based products. Yet earlier this year the Taiwan-based company released an i.MX6 UL powered VIG-120 IoT gateway for electric vehicles and it has now unveiled a similarly compact and Arm/Linux-driven VAC-1000 series. The rugged, 170 x 118 x 40mm system features a Foxconn FXN3102 SoC with 24 up to 1GHz Cortex-A53 cores and offers a choice of GTI Lightspeeur 2801S (VAC-1000) and Hailo-8 (VAC-1100) NPUs. Although Vecow lists no additional FXN3102 features, the headless SynQuacer SC2A11 features a 4MB L3 equipped cache coherent interconnect. Up to 64 SC2A11 chips cab be combined for a server with 1,536 cores running in parallel.
Building a Chatbot for Mental Health Awareness and Education
According to Forbes, around 60% of millennials have used chatbots, and over 70% of them had a positive experience. On top of that, Accenture reported that 57% of their surveyed executives noticed that chatbots had huge Returns on Investment with minimal effort. Lastly, chatbots have huge potential for scale, and personalized experiences. In recent years, chatbots have impacted several industries from retail, banking, finance, healthcare, to energy, investment has skyrocketed. Which got me thinking, to broaden my knowledge within the realm of AI and chatbots, what problems can I solve using the power of tech?
Facial Expression Recognition using Keras
Keras is a very powerful open source Python library which is runs on top of top of other open source machine libraries like TensorFlow, Theano etc, used for developing and evaluating deep learning models and leverages various optimization techniques. In this project we will implement facial expression recognition using Keras. Our dataset ( already divided into train and test set) consists of images of different facial expressions downloaded from Kaggle repo. In order to make the most of our training examples, we will "augment" them via a no. of random transformations which inturn helps prevent model overfitting and helps the model generalize better. We will be using convnet for this task.
Researchers open-source benchmarks measuring quality of AI-generated code
The applications of computer programming are vast in scope. And as computers become ubiquitous, the demand for quality code draws an ever-growing number of aspiring programmers to the profession. After years of study to become proficient at coding, experts learn to convert abstracts into concrete, executable programs. But what if AI could do the same? In recent years, large-scale AI language models have shown promise in generalizing to tasks including writing code, implying that humans' work may be one day supplemented by AI systems.
3D-printed 'electric nose' can SNIFF out COVID-19 in just 80 seconds with 94% accuracy
New technology aims to speed up coronavirus testing by'sniffing' the patient's nasal cavity and produce a diagnosis in just 80 seconds. Scientists at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel designed a 3D-printed electric nose that analyzes aromas of chemicals in those infected with COVID-19. Dubbed Pen3, the instrument consists of a long tube fitted with sensors, which fits into the nostril to analyze the naval cavity. Deep learning algorithms sniff around the nose and return real-time detection of COVID-19 infections โ and with 94 percent accuracy. New technology aims to speed up coronavirus testing by'sniffing' the patient's nasal cavity and produce a diagnosis in just 80 seconds Project leader Professor Noam Sobel said in a statement: 'The e-nose generates a pattern in every odor โ it characterizes the smell of COVID-19.
Beijing AI academy unveils world's largest pre-trained deep learning model
The Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence (BAAI) unveiled a newer version of its hyper-scale pre-trained deep learning model, the country's first and the world's largest, at an ongoing AI-themed forum in Beijing, in the latest signal of China's ambition to become a global leader in AI. The latest version of the model, known as Wudao, literally meaning an understanding of natural laws, sports 1.75 trillion parameters, breaking the record of 1.6 trillion previously set by Google's Switch Transformer AI language model, the academy announced Tuesday at the three-day forum that runs through Thursday. Wudao was only initially released in March. Wudao is intended to create cognitive intelligence dually driven by data and knowledge, making machines think like humans and enabling machine cognitive abilities to pass the Turing test, Tang Jie, BAAI's vice director of academics, said during the forum. The newer version of Wudao is both gigantic and smart, featuring its hyper scale, high precision and efficiency.

Learn Artificial Neural Network From Scratch in Python
Welcome to the course where we will learn about Artificial Neural Network (ANN) From Scratch! If you're looking for a complete Course on Deep Learning using ANN that teaches you everything you need to create a Neural Network model in Python? You've found the right Neural Network course! This course will get you started in building your FIRST artificial neural network using deep learning techniques. Following my previous course on logistic regression, we take this basic building block, and build full-on non-linear neural networks right out of the gate using Python and Numpy.
Finding Best Hyper Parameters For Deep Learning Model
Creating a deep learning model has become an easy task nowadays because of the advent of new efficient and fast working libraries like Keras. One can easily create the model by using different functionalities of Keras but the difficult part is to optimize the model to get higher accuracy. We can tune the hyperparameters to make the model more efficient but sometimes it can be a never-ending process. Storm tuner is a hyperparameter tuner that is used to search for the best hyperparameters for a deep learning neural network. It helps in finding out the most optimized hyperparameters for the model we create in less than 25 trials.
