In the field of machine learning applications, recommendation systems are critical to help customize user experiences on digital platforms, such as e-commerce and social media. However, traditional recommendation models struggle to manage the complexity and size of contemporary datasets. As a solution to this, Wukong, a product of Meta Platforms, Inc., introduces a unique architecture…
Machine learning has recently shifted from training and testing data from the same distribution towards handling diverse data sets. Researchers identified that models perform better when dealing with multiple distributions. This adaptability is often achieved using “rich representations,” surpassing the abilities of traditional models. The challenge lies in optimizing machine learning models to perform well…
The technology industry has been heavily focused on the development and enhancement of machine decision-making capabilities, especially with large language models (LLMs). Traditionally, decision-making in machines was improved through reinforcement learning (RL), a process of learning from trial and error to make optimal decisions in different environments. However, the conventional RL methodologies tend to concentrate…
Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a crucial tool for machine learning, enabling machines to tackle a variety of tasks, from strategic gameplay to autonomous driving. One key challenge within this field is the development of algorithms that can learn effectively and efficiently from limited interactions with the environment, with an emphasis on high sample efficiency, or…
Researchers at MIT have developed an image dataset that simulates peripheral vision for use in training machine learning (ML) models, an area where artificial intelligence (AI) notably diverges from human ability. Humans leverage less-detailed peripheral vision to detect shapes and items outside their direct line of sight, an ability AI lacks. Incorporating aspects of peripheral…
Researchers from the University of Oxford and University College London have developed Craftax, a reinforcement learning (RL) benchmark that unifies effective parallelization, compilation, and the removal of CPU to GPU transfer in RL experiments. This research seeks to address the limitations educators face in using tools such as MiniHack and Crafter due to their prolonged…
In today's competitive market, brands are constantly seeking ways to extend their reach and influence. Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) often provide the competitive edge that brands need to flourish. When market stakeholders and consumers looks to a brand for thought leadership, the brand gains instant credibility, giving it a recognized expert status in the industry.
As…
Researchers from the University of Surrey have developed a novel method of generating detailed 3D models of dogs using photographs, training the requisite artificial intelligence with computer-simulated canines from the popular video game Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V). It was traditionally challenging to apply existing 3D modeling techniques on animals due to their unpredictable…
A team of researchers from the Harbin Institute of Technology, Huawei Technologies Ltd, Squirrel AI, Meta AI, and Fudan University have developed a groundbreaking model for multivariate time series forecasting called PDETime. Traditional forecasting models, used in various applications from weather prediction to energy management, tend to rely on historical data and simple time-index features,…
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Deep Learning have made significant advancements, particularly in the area of generative modelling, a subfield of Machine Learning. Here, models are trained to produce new data samples that match the training data. Generative AI systems have shown remarkable capabilities, such as creating images from written descriptions and solving complex problems. Autoregressive…
Machine learning models are widely used today in smart devices like smartphones, with diverse applications like autocorrecting keyboards or improved chatbot responses. However, fine-tuning these models requires considerable computational resources and transfers of data to and from cloud servers – which can pose both energy and security issues. The team of researchers from MIT and…
