Why Deep Learning Is Suddenly Changing Your Life
Decades-old discoveries are now electrifying the computing industry and will soon transform corporate America. Over the past four years, readers have doubtlessly noticed quantum leaps in the quality of a wide range of everyday technologies. Most obviously, the speech-recognition functions on our smartphones work much better than they used to. When we use a voice […]
How Artificial Intelligence Can Help Burn Victims
Machine learning allows computers to see patterns in medical images that are invisible to human doctors. It takes years, decades even, for physicians to refine the expertise required to notice details that remain invisible to the untrained. This aptitude, depending on a doctor’s specialty, might mark the difference between an oncologist knowing a malignant tumor […]
The Healing Power of AI
Artificial intelligence originally aspired to replace doctors. Researchers imagined robots that could ask you questions, run the answers through an algorithm that would learn with experience and tell whether you had the flu or a cold. However, those promises largely failed, as artificial intelligent algorithms were too rudimentary to perform those functions. Particularly tricky was […]
How will data and digital platforms transform sustainable development?
The world is experiencing unprecedented growth in the amount of data that is being produced. Experts predict that data generation will increase 4,300 percent annually by 2020. In response to this growth, innovative digital platforms are emerging to allow organizations to better access, analyze, and use the treasure troves of information that exists in the […]
Understanding and Improving Convolutional Neural Networks via Concatenated Rectified Linear Units
Article Abstract Recently, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been used as a powerful tool to solve many problems of machine learning and computer vision. In this paper, we aim to provide insight on the property of convolutional neural networks, as well as a generic method to improve the performance of many CNN architectures. Specifically, we […]
Automation and anxiety – Will smarter machines cause mass unemployment?
SITTING IN AN office in San Francisco, Igor Barani calls up some medical scans on his screen. He is the chief executive of Enlitic, one of a host of startups applying deep learning to medicine, starting with the analysis of images such as X-rays and CT scans. It is an obvious use of the technology. […]
How Artificial Intelligence Is Bringing Us Smarter Medicine
We are using intelligent machines for everything from self-driving cars to online searches. But how about leveraging artificial intelligence, or AI, to save lives? “A momentous change in health care is under way,” says Suchi Saria, an associate professor in computational biology at Johns Hopkins, with startups harnessing the recent explosion of electronic health data […]
