A deep learning system for differential diagnosis of skin diseases

#artificialintelligence

Skin conditions affect an estimated 1.9 billion people worldwide. A shortage of dermatologists causes long wait times and leads patients to seek dermatologic care from general practitioners. However, the diagnostic accuracy of general practitioners has been reported to be only 0.24-0.70 In this paper, we developed a deep learning system (DLS) to provide a differential diagnosis of skin conditions for clinical cases (skin photographs and associated medical histories). The DLS distinguishes between 26 skin conditions that represent roughly 80 volume of skin conditions seen in primary care.


New Guide Offers Databricks Unified Analytics Platform Use Cases

#artificialintelligence

The fields of machine learning and deep learning are on the brink of unprecedented breakthroughs across a variety of verticals. And according to a new report from Databricks, "data is the new fuel," for these market advancements. AI and deep learning are set to disrupt and change industries across the board, and potential for innovation is certainly great. That said, the question for many enterprises becomes how to take advantage of the myriad of data ML tools now available. The new report explores the Databricks Unified Analytics Platform and provides four real-life machine learning use cases, including code samples and notebooks.


predict() returns value greater than 1 with tanh

#artificialintelligence

Using H2O DeepLearning and a Tanh activation function, is it acceptable/valid to get a predicted (probability) value greater than 1? Details: I am using H2O for Deep Learning Artificial Neural Networks in R to predict 2 classes. My y data (actualResults) are the actual classifications of only 0s and 1s. The x independent variables are all numerical and the training frame excludes the y (actualResults). When I do a max on the predicted values, I get values greater than 1, never less than -1, though Tanh is suppose to be limited to [-1, 1]. Note: In the code below, the training_set and testing_set's first column is the actual classification, so -c(1) removes it for the network's input.


r/programming - Dead simple speaker diarization on unseen speakers with a pretrained deep learning model

#artificialintelligence

Hello, I'm the author of the Real-Time Voice Cloning project that was posted here recently. I've developped a spin-off of the deep voice encoder from that project in order to perform speaker diarization, modest fake speech detection, voice comparison and high level voice feature extraction. It comes as a lightweight python package (pip install resemblyzer) for which you will find demos here. I hope you will find it interesting!


The devil is in the details

#artificialintelligence

Artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning all seem like fairly similar concepts. More to the point, they seem the same to an untrained eye. A lot of humans see them as the same concept because, in part, they kind of are. Just as nuclear or theoretical physics are parts of physics as a whole, machine learning, and deep learning are the branches of a colossal tree that is artificial intelligence. Think of them like Russian nesting dolls, each being a part of something bigger.

Cambridge appoints first DeepMind Professor of Machine Learning

#artificialintelligence

Professor Lawrence joins the University's Department of Computer Science and Technology from Amazon Cambridge, where he has been Director of Machine Learning for the past three years. He is also Professor of Machine Learning at the University of Sheffield, where he will retain a visiting position. Professor Lawrence's research interests are in probabilistic models with applications in computational biology, personalised health and developing economies. At Sheffield, he led the ML@SITraN group, and helped to develop an Open Data Science Initiative, an approach to data science designed to address societal needs. "There's so much expertise at Cambridge, in all aspects of systems and data: that's why I'm so excited about joining," Lawrence said.


Making deep neural networks paint to understand how they work

#artificialintelligence

It's a mystery that deep learning works so well. Even though there are several hints about why deep neural networks are so effective, the truth is that nobody is entirely sure and theoretical understanding of deep learning is very much an active area of research. We will make neural networks paint abstract images for us, and then we will interpret those images to develop a better intuition on what might be happening under the hood. Also, as a bonus, by the end of the tutorial, you'll be able to generate images such as the following (everything is less than 100 lines of PyTorch code. This image was generated by a simple architecture called Compositional Pattern Producing Networks (CPPN) which I got introduced to via this blog post. In that blog post, the author generates abstract images via neural networks written in JavaScript.


NDSS 2018 - VulDeePecker: A Deep Learning-Based System for Vulnerability Detection

#artificialintelligence

Session 3A: Deep Learning and Adversarial ML - 02 VulDeePecker: A Deep Learning-Based System for Vulnerability Detection SUMMARY The automatic detection of software vulnerabilities is an important research problem. However, existing solutions to this problem rely on human experts to define features and often miss many vulnerabilities (i.e., incurring high false negative rate). In this paper, we initiate the study of using deep learning-based vulnerability detection to relieve human experts from the tedious and subjective task of manually defining features. Since deep learning is motivated to deal with problems that are very different from the problem of vulnerability detection, we need some guiding principles for applying deep learning to vulnerability detection. In particular, we need to find representations of software programs that are suitable for deep learning.


You've been warned: Full body deepfakes are the next step in AI-based human mimicry

#artificialintelligence

Within the field of deepfakes, or "synthetic media" as researchers call it, much of the attention has been focused on fake faces potentially wreaking havoc on political reality, as well as other deep learning algorithms that can, for instance, mimic a person's writing style and voice. But yet another branch of synthetic media technology is fast evolving: full body deepfakes. In August 2018, University of California Berkeley researchers released a paper and video titled "Everybody Dance Now," demonstrating how deep learning algorithms can transfer a professional dancers' moves onto the bodies of amateurs. While primitive, it showed that machine learning researchers are tackling the more difficult task of creating full body deepfakes. Also in 2018, a team of researchers led by Dr. Björn Ommer of Heidelberg University in Germany published a paper on teaching machines to realistically render human movements.
