AI Technology & Industry Review
Bengio and researchers from Université de Montréal and the École Normale Supérieure in Paris have introduced a new curriculum learning algorithm based on the notion of mastering rate.
Researchers looks at current studies that are using AI to tackle the COVID-19 crisis and suggests some promising future research directions.
In a bid to raise awareness of the threats posed by climate change, the Mila team recently published a paper that uses GANs to generate images of how climate events may impact our environments — with a particular focus on floods.
A team of researchers from Mila and Google Brain believe simple pencil sketches could help AI models generalize to a better understanding of unseen images.
For an AI system to acquire knowledge the way humans generally do it would need to interact with its surroundings and extract information through its own attention and analysis choices. That’s the idea behind a new paper from Microsoft Research, Polytechnique Montreal, MILA and and the University of Montreal.
The Seventh International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR) kicked off today. One of the world’s major machine learning conferences, ICLR this year received 1591 main conference paper submissions — up 60 percent over last year — and accepted 24 for oral presentations and 476 as poster presentations.
Getting lost can be a hassle when in unfamiliar places, and a common solution is to ask a local for directions. Facebook Artificial Intelligence Research (FAIR) wants to transform their AI learning algorithm into that savvy local guide.
The Montreal Institute for Learning Algorithms (MILA) recently launched ObamaNet — a photo-realistic lip-sync neural network that can make anyone appear to be saying anything.
Before TensorFlow, PyTorch and Caffe; Theano was the major library for deep learning development. However, the library’s development and support will end after the upcoming Theano 1.0 release.
A tweet from Google DeepMind’s Nenad Tomasev, concerning a paper from the prestigious Montreal Institute for Learning Algorithms has sparked a well-known natural language processing expert Yoav Goldberg to tweet back: “…I really dislike this work.”
