CREATE ALMOST ANYTHING WITH MATRIX CREATOR - The MagPi Magazine

#artificialintelligence

There are plenty of add-on boards and HATs for the Raspberry Pi that add functionality to the computer, from simple things like LEDs or motor controllers, to sensor suites and enterprise security. The MATRIX Creator is something a little different, though, adding a huge number of functions in a bid to open up development with the Raspberry Pi to IoT and beyond. "The MATRIX Creator is an all-inclusive hardware device that connects to the GPIO pins on the Raspberry Pi and provides a means for any developer around the world to start making machine learning, computer vision, and Internet of Things applications within minutes," explains Rodolfo Saccoman, CEO of AdMobilize, the company behind the MATRIX. "We see it as being a building block for the democratisation of IoT and AI. Just as how the iPhone created an all-in-one hardware device that allowed developers to unleash their creativity and build amazing apps, which in turn revolutionised the world, we see the MATRIX Creator doing the same thing for a multitude of industries such as smart homes, intelligent buildings, robotics, security, industrial control, smart retail, drones, custom maker projects, and many more."


S\'election de variables par le GLM-Lasso pour la pr\'ediction du risque palustre

In this study, we propose an automatic learning method for variables selection based on Lasso in epidemiology context. One of the aim of this approach is to overcome the pretreatment of experts in medicine and epidemiology on collected data. These pretreatment consist in recoding some variables and to choose some interactions based on expertise. The approach proposed uses all available explanatory variables without treatment and generate automatically all interactions between them. This lead to high dimension. We use Lasso, one of the robust methods of variable selection in high dimension. To avoid over fitting a two levels cross-validation is used. Because the target variable is account variable and the lasso estimators are biased, variables selected by lasso are debiased by a GLM and used to predict the distribution of the main vector of malaria which is Anopheles. Results show that only few climatic and environmental variables are the mains factors associated to the malaria risk exposure.
