Artificial Intelligence Achieves Near Perfect Performance in Disease Diagnosis
The AI infused method has been created by researchers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Centre (BOIDMC) and Harvard Medical School (HMS). The recently developed AI aims at computers to interpret pathology images with the long-term goal being the creation of AI powered systems to make pathological diagnosis more accurate and efficient. The method is based on deep learning, a machine-learning algorithm used for a range of applications including image and speech recognition. The approach essentially teaches machines how to interpret complex patterns and structures observed in real life data by building multi-layer artificial neural networks. This process is believed to show similarities to the learning process occurring in neuron layers within the neocortex of the brain, the region where thinking occurs.
A Neural Probabilistic Structured-Prediction Method for Transition-Based Natural Language Processing
Zhou, Hao, Zhang, Yue, Cheng, Chuan, Huang, Shujian, Dai, Xinyu, Chen, Jiajun
We propose a neural probabilistic structured-prediction method for transition-based natural language processing, which integrates beam search and contrastive learning. The method uses a global optimization model, which can leverage arbitrary features over non-local context. Beam search is used for efficient heuristic decoding, and contrastive learning is performed for adjusting the model according to search errors. When evaluated on both chunking and dependency parsing tasks, the proposed method achieves significant accuracy improvements over the locally normalized greedy baseline on the two tasks, respectively.
Data-Mining Textual Responses to Uncover Misconception Patterns
Michalenko, Joshua J., Lan, Andrew S., Baraniuk, Richard G.
An important, yet largely unstudied, problem in student data analysis is to detect misconceptions from students' responses to open-response questions. Misconception detection enables instructors to deliver more targeted feedback on the misconceptions exhibited by many students in their class, thus improving the quality of instruction. In this paper, we propose a new natural language processing-based framework to detect the common misconceptions among students' textual responses to short-answer questions. We propose a probabilistic model for students' textual responses involving misconceptions and experimentally validate it on a real-world student-response dataset. Experimental results show that our proposed framework excels at classifying whether a response exhibits one or more misconceptions. More importantly, it can also automatically detect the common misconceptions exhibited across responses from multiple students to multiple questions; this property is especially important at large scale, since instructors will no longer need to manually specify all possible misconceptions that students might exhibit.
Deep Learning in Action (the less-math-more-apps version)
I've used a lot of different sources, so I've put them all at the end, to make the presentation more readable. In deep learning, I find myself citing the same sources over and over - be it for the concise explanations, the great visualizations, or the inspiring ideas. One thing that always gets lost when you publish a presentation are the demos. The first two are great sites that allow you to demonstrate the very basics of neural networks directly in the browser: When do you need hidden layers? What role does the form of the dataset play?
Nvidia says deep learning is about to revolutionize medicine
The chip maker Nvidia is riding the current artificial-intelligence boom with hardware designed to power cutting-edge learning algorithms. And the company sees health care and medicine as the next big market for its technology. Kimberly Powell, who leads Nvidia's efforts in health care, says the company is working with medical researchers in a range of areas and will look to expand these efforts in coming years. "There's this amazing surge in medical imaging research," Powell said at MIT Technology Review's EmTech Digital conference in San Francisco on Monday. Most notably, a machine-learning technique called deep learning is being applied to processing medical images and sifting through large amounts of medical data.
Deep learning boosted AI. Now the next big thing in machine intelligence is coming
Inside a simple computer simulation, a group of self-driving cars are performing a crazy-looking maneuver on a four-lane virtual highway. Half are trying to move from the right-hand lanes just as the other half try to merge from the left. It seems like just the sort of tricky thing that might flummox a robot vehicle, but they manage it with precision. I'm watching the driving simulation at the biggest artificial-intelligence conference of the year, held in Barcelona this past December. What's most amazing is that the software governing the cars' behavior wasn't programmed in the conventional sense at all.
Hardware for Deep Learning – Towards Data Science
Deep Learning's recent success is unstoppable. From categorizing objects in images and speech recognition, to captioning images, understanding visual scenes, summarizing videos, translate language, paint, even produce images, speech, sounds and music! The results are amazing, and so the demand will rise. Imagine you are Google or Facebook or Twitter: after you find a way to "read" the content of images and videos to make a better model of your users, what they like, what they talk about, what they recommend, and what they share. You would probably like to do more of it!
