Using AI to predict retinal disease progression
However, we know there's still a lot to do – this work does not yet represent a product that could be implemented in routine clinical practice. While our model can make better predictions than clinical experts, there are many other factors to consider for such systems to be impactful in a clinical setting. While the model was trained and evaluated on a population representative of the largest eye hospital in Europe, additional work would be needed to evaluate performance in the context of very different demographics. A recent study examining the use of a different AI system in a clinical setting highlighted just some of the sociotechnical issues for such systems in practice. Another difficult point to contend with is that any prediction system will have a certain rate of false positives: that is, when a patient is found to have a condition, or predicted to develop one, that they don't actually have.
NVIDIA Announces Ampere - The Most Exciting GPU Architecture For Modern AI
The GPU Technology Conference is the most exciting event for the AI and ML ecosystem. From researchers in academia to product managers at hyperscale cloud companies to IoT builders and makers, this conference has something relevant for each of them. As an AIoT enthusiast and a maker, I eagerly look forward to GTC. Due to the current COVID-19 situation, I was a bit disappointed to see the event turning into a virtual conference. But the keynote delivered by Jensen Huang, the CEO of NVIDIA made me forget that it was a virtual event.
Everything You Wanted to Know About Machine Learning but Were Too Afraid to Ask
Machine Learning, AI, Deep Learning are buzz words being heard daily on TV, in workplaces, at gatherings, etc. Maybe you're a little bit embarrassed to ask what's Machine Learning or AI, or maybe you have the wrong understanding of Machine Learning. Either way that's okay because this article serves as an introduction to Machine Learning, I wrote it in a Q&A format so it becomes easy to follow and understand. Machine Learning is a subset of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and it's about writing software codes to enables computers (or machines in general) to get better at a given task on their own without human intervention. Some people argue that Machine Learning is a fancy way to say "Statistical Analysis" which is the science of collecting data and uncovering patterns and trends. Either way, think about all the data being generated daily and how people try to make sense of it to make their lives better, that's Machine Learning.
OpenAI Finds Machine Learning Efficiency Is Outpacing Moore's Law
Eight years ago a machine learning algorithm learned to identify a cat--and it stunned the world. A few years later AI could accurately translate languages and take down world champion Go players. Now, machine learning has begun to excel at complex multiplayer video games like Starcraft and Dota 2 and subtle games like poker. AI, it would appear, is improving fast. But how fast is fast, and what's driving the pace?
AI Edge Partners Unveil Video Analytics Server
Hailo, the AI chip startup, is teaming with a Japanese systems designer and manufacturing giant Foxconn to develop an AI edge processor aimed at video analytics applications. The edge partnership is based on Foxconn Technology's BOXiedge platform that integrates the Hailo-8 deep learning processor with a parallel processor from Japanese system-on-chip designer Socienext Inc. The combination creates a local video management server designed to shift workload processing from the cloud to the edge. Yokohama-based Socionext specializes in low-power edge processors, including the recent release of an AI processor based on deep neural network technology. The approach is said to be "quantized," that is, the device is tuned to specific values such as signals, rather than a continuous range of values.

Improving Convolutional Neural Networks for Text Coherence Modelling using Class Balancing…
Lately, Deep Learning is gaining huge popularity due to its supremacy in terms of accuracy when it comes to very complex problems. It proved efficiency in NLP and was widely adopted by many problems to address them opening new doors for more meaningful and accurate modeling approaches. While many problems in NLP involve text syntheses such as text generation and multi-document summarization, text quality measures became a core requirement, and modeling them is an active problem. Of these measures, the problem of text coherence is key and needs special handling. Text coherence, which means the degree of the logical consistency of text, is a problem that dates back to the 1980s, where several models were suggested.
Machine Learning is Fun! Part 4: Modern Face Recognition with Deep Learning
Let's tackle this problem one step at a time. For each step, we'll learn about a different machine learning algorithm. I'm not going to explain every single algorithm completely to keep this from turning into a book, but you'll learn the main ideas behind each one and you'll learn how you can build your own facial recognition system in Python using OpenFace and dlib. The first step in our pipeline is face detection. Obviously we need to locate the faces in a photograph before we can try to tell them apart!
Applying Genetic Programming to Improve Interpretability in Machine Learning Models
Ferreira, Leonardo Augusto, Guimarães, Frederico Gadelha, Silva, Rodrigo
Explainable Artificial Intelligence (or xAI) has become an important research topic in the fields of Machine Learning and Deep Learning. In this paper, we propose a Genetic Programming (GP) based approach, named Genetic Programming Explainer (GPX), to the problem of explaining decisions computed by AI systems. The method generates a noise set located in the neighborhood of the point of interest, whose prediction should be explained, and fits a local explanation model for the analyzed sample. The tree structure generated by GPX provides a comprehensible analytical, possibly non-linear, symbolic expression which reflects the local behavior of the complex model. We considered three machine learning techniques that can be recognized as complex black-box models: Random Forest, Deep Neural Network and Support Vector Machine in twenty data sets for regression and classifications problems. Our results indicate that the GPX is able to produce more accurate understanding of complex models than the state of the art. The results validate the proposed approach as a novel way to deploy GP to improve interpretability.
An Overview of Privacy in Machine Learning
Over the past few years, providers such as Google, Microsoft, and Amazon have started to provide customers with access to software interfaces allowing them to easily embed machine learning tasks into their applications. Overall, organizations can now use Machine Learning as a Service (MLaaS) engines to outsource complex tasks, e.g., training classifiers, performing predictions, clustering, etc. They can also let others query models trained on their data. Naturally, this approach can also be used (and is often advocated) in other contexts, including government collaborations, citizen science projects, and business-to-business partnerships. However, if malicious users were able to recover data used to train these models, the resulting information leakage would create serious issues. Likewise, if the inner parameters of the model are considered proprietary information, then access to the model should not allow an adversary to learn such parameters. In this document, we set to review privacy challenges in this space, providing a systematic review of the relevant research literature, also exploring possible countermeasures. More specifically, we provide ample background information on relevant concepts around machine learning and privacy. Then, we discuss possible adversarial models and settings, cover a wide range of attacks that relate to private and/or sensitive information leakage, and review recent results attempting to defend against such attacks. Finally, we conclude with a list of open problems that require more work, including the need for better evaluations, more targeted defenses, and the study of the relation to policy and data protection efforts.
