Introducing the AI chip leading the world in precision scaling
To keep fueling the AI gold rush, we've been improving the very heart of AI hardware technology: digital AI cores that power deep learning, the key enabler of artificial intelligence. At IBM Research, we've been making strides in adapting to workload complexities of AI systems while streamlining and accelerating performance โ by innovating across materials, devices, chip architectures and the entire software stack, bringing closer the next generation AI computational systems with cutting-edge performance and unparalleled energy efficiency. In a new paper presented at the 2021 International Solid-State Circuits Virtual Conference (ISSCC), our team details the world's first energy efficient AI chip at the vanguard of low precision training and inference built with 7nm technology. Through its novel design, the AI hardware accelerator chip supports a variety of model types while achieving leading edge power efficiency on all of them. This chip technology can be scaled and used for many commercial applications -- from large-scale model training in the cloud to security and privacy efforts by bringing training closer to the edge and data closer to the source.
Leading AI & Machine Learning Research Trends 2021
To help you stay well prepared for 2021, we have summarized the latest trends across different research areas, including natural language processing, conversational AI, computer vision, and reinforcement learning. We also suggest key research papers in different areas that we think are representative of the latest advances. Subscribe to our AI Research mailing list at the bottom of this article to be alerted when we release new research articles. In 2020, NLP research advances were still dominated by large pre-trained language models, particularly transformers.This year we're likely to see some more interesting research ideas on improving the transformer architecture and the efficiency of its training. At the same time, we can be sure that top tech companies will continue to exploit the model's size as the main factor for improving the performance of language models, with GPT-4 or something similar likely to be introduced in 2021.
Deep Learning Technology and EMR Software
Deep learning or deep structured learning, is a form of machine learning which uses algorithmic architecture to analyze data. Deep learning technology helps to analyze data faster and with more accuracy. Deep learning models become more efficient and precise as they process more data, learning from previous results enhances its ability to make corrections. Deep learning can unlock hidden opportunities in clinical data which can facilitate healthcare providers to offer enhanced patient care and hence improve patient outcome levels. Electronic Medical Record (EMR) software systems store patient data such as demographics, lab results, and medical history and make it accessible to healthcare providers to aid diagnosis.
Featurespace Touts New Anti-Fraud System
U.K.-based Featurespace, which offers anti-fraud systems for financial institutions (FIs), on Thursday (Feb. In a press release, the company said the new product, intended for the card and payments industry, provides a "deeper layer of defense to protect consumers from scams, account takeover, card and payments fraud, which cost an estimated $42 billion in 2020." The new product is "truly the next generation of machine learning," said Dave Excell, founder of Featurespace. The company said that it involves "a breakthrough in deep learning technology" that is capable of pinpointing potential fraud before the victim's money is removed from their account. That serves as "the best line of defense against scams, account takeover, card and payment fraud attacks," the release stated.
How Transformers work in deep learning and NLP: an intuitive introduction
The famous paper "Attention is all you need" in 2017 changed the way we were thinking about attention. Nonetheless, 2020 was definitely the year of transformers! From natural language now they are into computer vision tasks. How did we go from attention to self-attention? Why does the transformer work so damn well? What are the critical components for its success? Read on and find out! In my opinion, transformers are not so hard to grasp.
A new technique called 'concept whitening' promises to provide neural network interpretability
Deep neural networks can perform wonderful feats, thanks to their extremely large and complicated web of parameters. But their complexity is also their curse: The inner workings of neural networks are often a mystery -- even to their creators. This is a challenge that has been troubling the artificial intelligence community since deep learning started to become popular in the early 2010s. In tandem with the expansion of deep learning in various domains and applications, there has been a growing interest in developing techniques that try to explain neural networks by examining their results and learned parameters. But these explanations are often erroneous and misleading, and they provide little guidance in fixing possible misconceptions embedded in deep learning models during training.
100+ Free Machine Learning Courses by Kaggle, Fast AI, DeepMind, Intel, MIT and Other Biggies
This was a very well-designed class. Each problem set was lovingly crafted, and each problem helped me understand the material (there weren't any "filler" problems or long derivations where I learned nothing). The lectures were fantastic, and if you didn't like watching lectures, the lecture notes were great too. The class was a lot of work. Each set took one or two days, but there were only four sets in the class.
