Is Machine Learning Always The Right Choice? – Machine Learning Times – machine learning & data science news – The Predictive Analytics Times
By: Mark Krupnik, PhD, Founder and CEO, Retalon Since this article will probably come out during Income tax season, let me start with the following example: Suppose we would like to build a program that calculates income tax for people. According to US federal income tax rules: “For single filers, all income less than $9,875…
This Bengaluru startup aims to help firms become data smart and intelligent using AI and ML
Chethan KR and Ashish Koushik were working together at MSys Technologies, an IT services firm, where they helped large product companies and enterprises with digital transformation.They realised that though these companies aligned towards automation, cloud analytics, and machine learning, they were not ready for artificial intelligence (AI). Some of the challenges the duo saw in…
Augmented Video, Artificial Intelligence, and Machine Learning: How This Startup Lets Fans (and Teams) See Soccer in a Whole New Way
A man sitting in front of me at a DC United game last year kept complaining about Wayne Rooney. “He isn’t hustling,” he said. “He’s not making any runs,” he said. “He doesn’t track back,” he said, finally looking back at me.I shook my head. “I don’t know,” I said. “I think his work rate is pretty high.”Was he…
How artificial intelligence outsmarted the superbugs – The Guardian
One of the seminal texts for anyone interested in technology and society is Melvin Kranzberg’s Six Laws of Technology, the first of which says that “technology is neither good nor bad; nor is it neutral”. By this, Kranzberg meant that technology’s interaction with society is such “that technical developments frequently have environmental, social and human…

Demystifying the world of deep networks
Introductory statistics courses teach us that, when fitting a model to some data, we should have more data than free parameters to avoid the danger of overfitting — fitting noisy data too closely, and thereby failing to fit new data. It is surprising, then, that in modern deep learning the practice is to have orders…
Machine learning picks out hidden vibrations from earthquake data
Over the last century, scientists have developed methods to map the structures within the Earth’s crust, in order to identify resources such as oil reserves, geothermal sources, and, more recently, reservoirs where excess carbon dioxide could potentially be sequestered. They do so by tracking seismic waves that are produced naturally by earthquakes or artificially via…

Making Sense of Sound: What Does Machine Learning Mean for Music? – Datanami
(whiteMocca/Shutterstock) AI has proven to have a considerable impact on some major industries. While autonomous cars and virtual assistants are slowly becoming a reality, the creative industry has been experimenting with AI for several years already. Does it have meaningful implications and if so, what will it bring in the future? It’s universally agreed that…
