Handwriting Recognition With C#, CNTK, And A Deep Neural Network

#artificialintelligence

Here's how to set up a new console project in NET Core: Microsoft.ML is the Microsoft machine learning package. We will use to load and process the data from the dataset. The CNTK.GPU library is Microsoft's Cognitive Toolkit that can train and run deep neural networks. And Xplot.Plotly is an awesome plotting library based on Plotly. The library is designed for F# so we also need to pull in the Fsharp.Core library.


Questioning The Long-Term Importance Of Big Data In AI

#artificialintelligence

AlphaGo, the Go-playing artificial intelligence program developed by Google's DeepMind, defeated ... [ ] legendary human Go player Lee Sedol in a 2016 match in Seoul, South Korea. No asset is more prized in today's digital economy than data. It has become widespread to the point of cliche to refer to data as "the new oil." As one recent Economist headline put it, data is "the world's most valuable resource." Data is so highly valued today because of the essential role it plays in powering machine learning and artificial intelligence solutions. Training an AI system to function effectively--from Netflix's recommendation engine to Google's self-driving cars--requires massive troves of data.


GPT-2: How to Build "The AI That's Too Dangerous to Release"

#artificialintelligence

The sentence you just read wasn't written by me, the author of this article, nor was it written by the editor. No. What you just read was written entirely by OpenAI's GPT-2 language model, prompted only with the word "Today". Apart from another fancy acronym, GPT-2 brought along somewhat coherent (semantically, at least) language generation capabilities, some semblance of hope for zero-shot transfer learning, and a transformer network trained with approximately 1.5 billion parameters on a text corpus with over 40 gigabytes of internet wisdom. In this post, I'm not going to talk about better language models and their implications. As the great Stan Lee once said, "nuff said" about that.


Machine Learning Quotes - Training included. - Supply Chain Today

#artificialintelligence

A list of machine learning quotes that will get you thinking about the future. Artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning are the future. "A baby learns to crawl, walk and then run. We are in the crawling stage when it comes to applying machine learning." "Machine learning will automate jobs that most people thought could only be done by people."


Keras Learning Rate Finder - PyImageSearch

#artificialintelligence

In this tutorial, you will learn how to automatically find learning rates using Keras. Last week we discussed Cyclical Learning Rates (CLRs) and how they can be used to obtain high accuracy models with fewer experiments and limited hyperparameter tuning. The CLR method allows our learning rate to cyclically oscillate between a lower and upper bound; however, the question still remains, how do we know what are good choices for our learning rates? Today I'll be answering that question. And by the time you have completed this tutorial, you will understand how to automatically find optimal learning rates for your neural network, saving you 10s, 100s or even 1000s of hours in compute time running experiments to tune your hyperparameters.


AI is reinventing the way we invent - GO Tech Daily

#artificialintelligence

Amgen's drug discovery group is a few blocks beyond that. Until recently, Barzilay, one of the world's leading researchers in artificial intelligence, hadn't given much thought to these nearby buildings full of chemists and biologists. But as AI and machine learning began to perform ever more impressive feats in image recognition and language comprehension, she began to wonder: could it also transform the task of finding new drugs? The problem is that human researchers can explore only a tiny slice of what is possible. It's estimated that there are as many as 1060 potentially drug-like molecules--more than the number of atoms in the solar system. But traversing seemingly unlimited possibilities is what machine learning is good at. Trained on large databases of existing molecules and their properties, the programs can explore all possible related molecules. Drug discovery is a hugely expensive and often frustrating process.


NVIDIA/DeepLearningExamples

#artificialintelligence

This repository provides a script and recipe to train the BERT model for PyTorch to achieve state-of-the-art accuracy, and is tested and maintained by NVIDIA. BERT, or Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers, is a new method of pre-training language representations which obtains state-of-the-art results on a wide array of Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks. This model is based on the BERT: Pre-training of Deep Bidirectional Transformers for Language Understanding paper. NVIDIA's implementation of BERT is an optimized version of the Hugging Face implementation, leveraging mixed precision arithmetic and Tensor Cores on V100 GPUs for faster training times while maintaining target accuracy. The repository also contains scripts to interactively launch data download, training, benchmarking and inference routines in a Docker container for both pre-training and fine-tuning for tasks such as question answering. This model trains with mixed precision Tensor Cores on Volta and provides a push-button solution to pretraining on a corpus of choice.


Why Intel Distribution For Python Is A Game Changer For Deep Learning

#artificialintelligence

As per our Data Science Skills Study 2018, Python is the most used language by data scientists, with 44% of respondents using it for application building and scientific & numeric computing. One of the main reasons for Python's soaring popularity is that it has one of the largest programming communities in the world and offers a number of libraries which a data scientist can use to analyse large amounts of data. In terms of data visualization, Python offers a number of libraries like Pandas or Matplotlib. The study further revealed that 41% data scientists prefer Pandas over other libraries. As Python inches towards supremacy, a lot of emphasis is now being laid on how to improve the platforms that run Python and the use of its machine learning libraries.


Top 10 Artificial Intelligence Stocks To Buy In 2020 Robots.net

#artificialintelligence

Artificial intelligence is the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. This is one of the tech fields with the highest potential. Hence, it is worth paying attention to the best artificial intelligence stocks of 2020. Let's have a look at the top 10 artificial intelligence stocks in 2020. Even if you've only casually followed the best ways to invest in artificial intelligence, you likely know Nvidia, the specialized semiconductor company whose technology plays a central role in many young, high-growth areas of tech. Central to Nvidia's leadership is the company's graphics processing unit (GPU), which powers autonomous vehicles, high-performance gaming, cloud computing and many other areas requiring deep learning.


How to use NVIDIA GPUs for Machine Learning with the new Data Science PC from Maingear

#artificialintelligence

Deep Learning enables us to perform many human-like tasks, but if you're a data scientist and you don't work in a FAANG company (or if you're not developing the next AI startup) chances are that you still use good and old (ok, maybe not that old) Machine Learning to perform your daily tasks. One characteristic of Deep Learning is that it's very computationally intensive, so all the main DL libraries make use of GPUs to improve the processing speed. But if you ever felt left out of the party because you don't work with Deep Learning, those days are over: with the RAPIDS suite of libraries now we can run our data science and analytics pipelines entirely on GPUs. In this article we're going to talk about some of these RAPIDS libraries and get to know a little more about the new Data Science PC from Maingear. Generally speaking, GPUs are fast because they have high-bandwidth memories and hardware that performs floating-point arithmetic at significantly higher rates than conventional CPUs [1].
