There are many open-source projects in Artificial Intelligence that are never heard of. But many of these projects also grow to be part of the fundamentals in Artificial Intelligence. Everybody has heard about TensorFlow in the AI world! But it was initially just a project by the Google Brain team for internal Google use. Similarly, most of these open-source projects start as passion projects of developers in universities or tech companies like Google, Microsoft, etc.

In this article, we'll take a moment to look at some of the interesting things that transpired in 2018 in the machine learning world. We'll look at some of the top open source projects as ranked by Mybridge, major developments in machine learning frameworks, and some of the things to look forward to in 2019. Let's look at some of the top open source projects from the previous year BERT stands for Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers. BERT is a new method of solving natural language processing problems and obtains state of the art results. It's based on TensorFlow and allows developers to solve problems using pre-trained models.
