#artificialintelligence

Recent years have seen a rising interest in developing AI algorithms for real world big data domains ranging from autonomous cars to personalized assistants. At the core of these algorithms are architectures that combine deep neural networks, for approximating the underlying multidimensional state-spaces, with reinforcement learning, for controlling agents that learn to operate in said state-spaces towards achieving a given objective. The talk will first outline notable past and future efforts in deep reinforcement learning as well as identify fundamental problems that this technology has been struggling to overcome. Towards mitigating these problems (and open up an alternative path to general artificial intelligence), I will then summarize a brain computing model of intelligence, rooted in the latest findings in neuroscience. The talk will conclude with an overview of the recent research efforts in the field of multi-agent systems, to provide the future teams of humans and agents with the necessary tools that allow them to safely co-exist.


From 2016: Why Deep Learning Is Suddenly Changing Your Life

#artificialintelligence

To learn, however, a deep neural net needed to do more than just send messages up through the layers in this fashion. It also needed a way to see if it was getting the right results at the top layer and, if not, send messages back down so that all the lower neuron-like units could retune their activations to improve the results. That's where the learning would occur. In the early 1980s, Hinton was working on this problem. So was a French researcher named Yann LeCun, who was just starting his graduate work in Paris.


r/MachineLearning - [Research] Automated deep learning design for medical image classification by health-care professionals with no coding experience: a feasibility study

#artificialintelligence

BACKGROUND Deep learning has the potential to transform health care; however, substantial expertise is required to train such models. We sought to evaluate the utility of automated deep learning software to develop medical image diagnostic classifiers by health-care professionals with no coding--and no deep learning--expertise. METHODS We used five publicly available open-source datasets: retinal fundus images (MESSIDOR); optical coherence tomography (OCT) images (Guangzhou Medical University and Shiley Eye Institute, version 3); images of skin lesions (Human Against Machine [HAM] 10000), and both paediatric and adult chest x-ray (CXR) images (Guangzhou Medical University and Shiley Eye Institute, version 3 and the National Institute of Health [NIH] dataset, respectively) to separately feed into a neural architecture search framework, hosted through Google Cloud AutoML, that automatically developed a deep learning architecture to classify common diseases. Sensitivity (recall), specificity, and positive predictive value (precision) were used to evaluate the diagnostic properties of the models. The discriminative performance was assessed using the area under the precision recall curve (AUPRC).


On Education Deep Learning Prerequisites: The Numpy Stack in Python - all courses

#artificialintelligence

Understand supervised machine learning (classification and regression) with real-world examples using Scikit-Learn Understand and code using the Numpy stack Make use of Numpy, Scipy, Matplotlib, and Pandas to implement numerical algorithms Understand the pros and cons of various machine learning models, including Deep Learning, Decision Trees, Random Forest, Linear Regression, Boosting, and More! Understand linear algebra and the Gaussian distribution Be comfortable with coding in Python You should already know "why" things like a dot product, matrix inversion, and Gaussian probability distributions are useful and what they can be used for Welcome! This is Deep Learning, Machine Learning, and Data Science Prerequisites: The Numpy Stack in Python. One question or concern I get a lot is that people want to learn deep learning and data science, so they take these courses, but they get left behind because they don't know enough about the Numpy stack in order to turn those concepts into code. Even if I write the code in full, if you don't know Numpy, then it's still very hard to read.


New AI Model Shortens Drug Discovery to Days, Not Years

#artificialintelligence

Biotechnology, pharmaceutical and life sciences industries are where applied artificial intelligence (AI) can greatly accelerate innovation and shorten the product development life-cycle. Developing a drug typically takes 10 to 15 years on average, with only approximately 12 percent of drugs in clinical trials ultimately gaining U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval. In an AI milestone in life sciences, Insilico Medicine announced a new machine learning tool for drug discovery that can generate a novel molecule in days instead of years, and published their findings in Nature Biotechnology on September 2, 2019. Insilico Medicine is a venture-backed start-up with multiple investors that include WuXi AppTec, Juvenescence, Peter Diamandis' BOLD Capital Partners, and Pavilion Capital. Led by CEO and Founder Alex Zhavoronkov, the company's mission is to extend longevity by applied AI solutions for drug discovery and aging research.

10 Essential Data Science Packages for Python

#artificialintelligence

Interest in data science has risen remarkably in the last five years. And while there are many programming languages suited for data science and machine learning, Python is the most popular. Scikit-Learn is a Python module for machine learning built on top of SciPy and NumPy. David Cournapeau started it as a Google Summer of Code project. Since then, it's grown to over 20,000 commits and more than 90 releases.



Designing New Drugs Takes Years, but Insilico's A.I. Can Do It In Days Digital Trends

#artificialintelligence

Between the fake news potential of deepfakes, the fear of robots stealing jobs, and the occasional call for automated systems to have control of the nuclear button, A.I.'s public image could do with a PR makeover here in 2019. Could saving a few million lives help? That's something a new biotech pharmaceutical startup called Insilico Medicine may be able to help with. Combining genomics, big data analysis, and deep learning, the company -- which is based in Rockville in Johns Hopkins University's Emerging Technology Centers -- has been using artificial intelligence algorithms to potentially discover the next world-changing drug. Using two of the most exciting and popular A.I. techniques of the moment, it's found a way of discovering drug molecules not only far more cheaply than usual, but also much, much, much faster.


Introduction to Active Learning

#artificialintelligence

As data gets cheaper and cheaper to collect and store, data scientists are left with more data to deal with that they will ever be capable of analyzing. And this trend doesn't show signs of slowing down: the explosion of IoT devices paired with the appearance of new memory-greedy data formats are leaving data professionals fending for themselves in an ocean of raw data. Given that the most exciting advances in machine learning require large volumes of data, this is an exciting time. But it also raises a brand new challenge for the ML community: unless the data is labelled, it remains essentially useless for all ML applications relying on a supervised learning approach. Some of the most promising advances in AI over the last decade have come from the usage of deep learning models.
