Neural Information Processing Systems

First provide a summary of the paper, and then address the following criteria: Quality, clarity, originality and significance. This paper studies the multi-armed bandit problem where they have a set of relevant features; and the expected reward of an action is a Lipschitz continuous of relevant features. This is also a feature selection problem where you have a set of features but only r of them are relevant (the target function only depends on r of these features): here each arm has only one relevant feature, meaning the function representing the arm payoff depending on only one feature and we do not know which one. They propose an algorithm and get the bound for such adaptive case; but their regret is higher than what you would get if someone tells you the relevant type. Q2: Please summarize your review in 1-2 sentences This paper makes a small step towards understanding the problem of having a subset of features being relevant for a given arm which itself is certainly an interesting problem: they study the bandit problem only for one relevant feature per arm and did not give the optimal rate. Potentially, they could go with all arbitrary number of relevant features and figure out the optimal regret.


Reviews: Escaping Saddle Points in Constrained Optimization

Neural Information Processing Systems

In this submission, the authors propose an algorithm for nonconvex optimization under convex constraints. The method aims at escaping saddle points and converging to second-order stationary points. The main idea of the submission lies in exploiting the structure of the convex constraint set so as to find an approximate solution to quadratic programs over this set in polynomial time. By combining this oracle with a first-order iteration such as conditional gradient or projected gradient, the authors are able to guarantee that their algorithm will converge towards an (\epsilon,\gamma) -Second-Order Stationary Point (SOSP), i. e. a point at which first and second-order necessary conditions are approximately satisfied, respectively to \epsilon and \gamma tolerances. In addition to addressing a topic of increasing interest in the community of NIPS (escaping saddle points in nonconvex optimization), this submission also touches complexity aspects that are of general interest in theoretical computer science (NP-hardness and approximation algorithms).



The attribution problem with generative AI

#artificialintelligence

True, when we write academic articles nowadays, nobody expects you to provide the trail of references all the way down to Aristotle. But few people would say that taking someone's recent NeurIPS paper and republishing it would be ok. Yes, it is a continuum, but it's still real. What exactly is common knowledge and what deserves a reference at a given point in time varies by person, depending on their domain knowledge and principles. Still, everybody has a fairly clear idea of what their own boundaries are. Would you personally be comfortable with changing some variable names in a StackOverflow snippet and passing it as your own work? Would you tell your child it's ok to copy-paste essay passages from public domain sources - after all, it's not illegal? How about if you hear an apt metaphor in someone's keynote that you haven't heard anywhere else - would you say that it's "just English" and use it as your own? Whatever your answers are to these questions - you have these answers, which means that you have your own attribution norms.


Data Science vs Computer Science: Key Differences

#artificialintelligence

There are many different concepts that fall into the fields of technology and artificial intelligence. Two such concepts are data Science and computer science, which are closely related. These two concepts are often viewed as the same, but they are not. The skills required to be a professional within these fields are also highly sought after.


Machine Learning vs Data Science: Key Differences

#artificialintelligence

Machine learning (ML) and data science are two separate concepts that are related to the field of artificial intelligence (AI). Both concepts rely on data to improve products, services, systems, decision-making processes, and much more. Both machine learning and data science are also highly sought after career paths in our current data-driven world. Both ML and data science are used by data scientists in their field of work, and they are being adopted in almost every industry. For anyone looking to get involved in these fields, or any business leader looking to adopt an AI-driven approach into their organization, understanding these two concepts is crucial.


Machine Learning vs Artificial Intelligence: Key Differences

#artificialintelligence

It's very common to hear the terms "machine learning" and "artificial intelligence" thrown around in the wrong context. It's an easy mistake to make, as they are two separate but similar concepts that are closely related. With that said, it's important to note that machine learning, or ML, is a subset of artificial intelligence, or AI.


The key difference between AI, ML, Deep Learning, Data Science, and Big Data

#artificialintelligence

It helps in Building data-dominant products, which is the aim of a business. All data kinds, whether structured, unstructured, or semi-structured, are covered. As data science includes data scraping, cleaning, visualization, statistics, and many other techniques, it is a superset of data mining. The majority of its uses are scientific. Since it mainly focuses on data science, it bags the question, how data science and big data are different from one another?


NNAISENSE announces release of EvoTorch, a rare open-source evolutionary algorithm

#artificialintelligence

Were you unable to attend Transform 2022? Check out all of the summit sessions in our on-demand library now! The promise of evolutionary algorithms has been around for several years, offering organizations the elusive prospect of an advanced self-learning approach for artificial intelligence (AI). A key challenge, however, has been that few evolutionary algorithm technologies have been available under an open-source license. That is changing today: Switzerland-based AI vendor NNAISENSE announced the formal release of its EvoTorch open-source evolutionary algorithm technology.


MLOps vs DevOps: Let's Understand the Differences? - Analytics Vidhya

#artificialintelligence

This article was published as a part of the Data Science Blogathon. In this article, we will be going through two concepts MLOps and DevOps. We will first try to get through their basics and then we will explore the differences between them. As you might be aware in DevOps we try to bring together the programming i.e development of web app or any software, it's testing mainly done by QA people and then its deployment. There is a whole machine learning model development life cycle that we try to streamline.
