A.I. creates 'maps' of immune system fighting cancer - Futurity

@machinelearnbot

You are free to share this article under the Attribution 4.0 International license. Using artificial intelligence and deep learning on very high-resolution images of tumor tissue, researchers produced maps of how the immune system fights cancer. By combining data on pathology images of 13 types of cancer and correlating that with clinical and genomic data, the team of researchers were able to identify tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), called TIL maps, which will enable cancer specialists to generate tumor-immune information from routinely gathered pathology slides. Published in Cell Reports, the paper details how TIL maps are related to the molecular characterization of tumors and patient survival. The method may provide a foundation on how to better diagnose and create a treatment plan for cancers that are responsive to immune-based anti-cancer therapy, such as melanoma, lung, bladder, and certain types of colon cancer.


How Companies Are Incorporating Artificial Intelligence (AI) Into Their Business i2x Solutions

@machinelearnbot

Today we take a look at how many successful companies have already begun to incorporate AI into their business practices. Using deep learning models, businesses are training systems to automatically validate data or find trends on new data based on historical examples. For example, some businesses are using decades of data to identify the quality of employee captured data as it is input or find projects/tasks that are more profitable than others. Many artificial intelligence bots now offer basic security features, such as timed lights, home management, and audio commands. Businesses today have begun to take advantage of these new features by turning their phones and laptops into mobile security stations, made possible using AI in the office.


Generating Drake Rap Lyrics using Language Models and LSTMs

@machinelearnbot

Now, we are going to talk about the model for text generation, this is really what you are here for, it's the real sauce - raw sauce. I'm going to start off by talking about the model design and some important elements that make lyric generation possible and then, we are going to jump into the implementation of it. The main difference for each one of the models comes from what your inputs and outputs are, and I'm going to talk exactly about how each one of them works here. In a case of a character-level model your input is a series of characters seedand your model is responsible for predicting the next character new_char. Then you use the seed new_char together to generate the next character and so on.


Deep learning & neural networks in pytorch for beginners

@machinelearnbot

Get your team access to Udemy's top 2,500 courses anytime, anywhere. You make a great decision to join. Artificial intelligence (AI) is the hottest topic currently out there - no doubt about that. Neural networks in particular have seen a lot of attention and they will be used everywhere -self driving cars, predictions in finance and sales forecasts - everywhere and across all industries. To be successful in the working world of tomorrow we have to expose ourselves to this interesting topic - and from my personal experience - coding your own neural network is the best way to understand how they work.


Future of Work AI vs. Lawyer: I rest my case

#artificialintelligence

A study conducted by legal AI platform LawGeex in consultation with law professors from Stanford University, Duke University School of Law, and the University of Southern California, pitted twenty experienced lawyers against an AI trained to evaluate legal contracts. Their 40 page report details how AI has overtaken top lawyers in accurately spotting risks in everyday business contracts. The human participants were made up of law firm associates, sole-practitioners, in-house lawyers and general counsel. The LawGeex AI was trained on NDA's using machine and deep learning technologies. To review five Non-disclosure agreements (NDA), a very common kind commercial document.


Nokia launches new customer experience-centric AI analytics software

#artificialintelligence

Leading Finnish telecommunications company Nokia has announced that it has bolstered its Customer Experience Index (CEI) with the unveiling of its latest Cognitive Analytics for Customer Insight software. Using machine learning and intelligent automation, the software will be able to provide transformational real time and personalized consumer experiences to business, IT and engineering companies. "Nokia CEI now taps advanced machine learning and deep learning algorithms co-developed with Nokia Bell Labs to provide new levels of prediction and automation capabilities to improve the subscriber experience," Nokia explains. "The algorithms optimize themselves over time, decreasing the time required for the initial tuning of the index from months to days, and delivering a far more accurate view of subscriber satisfaction." This will allow service providers to quickly identify issues, up to six times faster, and in turn prioritize improvements based on their unique circumstances, better delivering revenue-generating services.


New O'Reilly Survey Results Shed Light on Artificial Intelligence Skills Gap

#artificialintelligence

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--O'Reilly, the premier source for insight-driven learning on technology and business, today announced the results of its 2018 Artificial Intelligence (AI) survey, "How Companies Are Putting AI to Work Through Deep Learning." Focused on deep learning, a technique used primarily for supervised machine learning, the survey explores the adoption of tools and techniques to build AI applications and the barriers that hinder business adoption. Findings suggest that the democratization of AI and deep learning applications will continue, as development tools and libraries improve. However, the shortage of AI-trained engineers and developers will persist. For example, while 54% of respondents indicated AI will play a big role (35%) or essential role (19%) in their organization's future projects, lack of skilled people was the number one bottleneck reported.


Deep Learning: Advanced Computer Vision Udemy

@machinelearnbot

This is one of the most exciting courses I've done and it really shows how fast and how far deep learning has come over the years. When I first started my deep learning series, I didn't ever consider that I'd make two courses on convolutional neural networks. I think what you'll find is that, this course is so entirely different from the previous one, you will be impressed at just how much material we have to cover. We're going to bridge the gap between the basic CNN architecture you already know and love, to modern, novel architectures such as VGG, ResNet, and Inception (named after the movie which by the way, is also great!) We're going to apply these to images of blood cells, and create a system that is a better medical expert than either you or I. This brings up a fascinating idea: that the doctors of the future are not humans, but robots.


Advanced Computer Vision with TensorFlow Udemy

@machinelearnbot

TensorFlow has been gaining immense popularity over the past few months, due to its power and simplicity to use. This video will help you leverage the power of TensorFlow to perform advanced image processing. This course is a continuation of the Intro to Computer Vision course, building on top of the skills learned in that course. In this course, you'll dive deeper as we cover more advanced computer vision concepts. You will implement multiple state-of-the-art deep learning papers from scratch using the TensorFlow-Keras API.


Video: Demystifying Parallel and Distributed Deep Learning - insideHPC

#artificialintelligence

In this video from 2018 Swiss HPC Conference, Torsten Hoefler from (ETH) Zürich presents: Demystifying Parallel and Distributed Deep Learning: An In-Depth Concurrency Analysis. "Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are becoming an important tool in modern computing applications. Accelerating their training is a major challenge and techniques range from distributed algorithms to low-level circuit design. In this talk, we describe the problem from a theoretical perspective, followed by approaches for its parallelization. We discuss the different types of concurrency in DNNs; synchronous and asynchronous stochastic gradient descent; distributed system architectures; communication schemes; and performance modeling. Based on these approaches, we extrapolate potential directions for parallelism in deep learning."
