AI Technology & Industry Review
Benjamin Sanchez-Lengeling from Harvard University and Alán Aspuru-Guzik from the University of Toronto have successfully applied machine learning models to speed up the materials discovery process. Their paper Inverse molecular design using machine learning: Generative models for matter engineering was published July 27 in Science Vol. 361.
Researchers from the British AI company yesterday published a paper on Nature — Vector-based navigation using grid-like representations in artificial agents — which proposes an artificial virtual agent that can navigate like mammals.
Facebook generally uses its F8 Developer Conference to introduce new website features. This year however there was a distinct emphasis on “AI,” with the term mentioned more than ever in the event’s keynote speech.
The Berkeley Artificial Intelligence Research (BAIR) Lab yesterday proposed DeepMimic, a Reinforcement Learning (RL) technique that enables simulated characters to regenerate highly dynamic physical movements learned from data collected from human subjects.
Google has announced the release of MusicVAE, a machine learning model that makes composing musical scores as easy as mixing paint on a palette. A breakthrough from Google Brain’s Magenta Project, MusicVAE generates and morphs melodies to output multi-instrumental passages optimized for expression, realism and smoothness which sound convincingly like human-composed music.
To boost learning research aimed at endowing robots with better generalization capabilities, Yi Wu from UC Berkeley and Yuxin Wu, Georgia Gkioxari, and Yuandong Tian from Facebook AI research recently published the paper Building Generalizable Agents with a Realistic and Rich 3D Environment.
Engineers have long struggled to teach robots how to perform actions that appear simple by human standards. Former OpenAI research scientist Peter Chen believes the solution is transforming such robots into teachable apprentices.
Facebook AI Researcher Yuandong Tian says new AlphaGo Zero paper is destined to be a classic.
One crucial standard in measuring autonomous vehicles is whether the autonomous vehicles can go through intersections with no signals. In this paper, the authors provide us with a new strategy of using Deep Reinforcement Learning.
Tim Sweeney predicts that video game companies will ultimately utilize advanced AI techniques when the VR/AR games (or so-called “The Metaverse” games) become popular, due to advancements of cameras and displays
Intelligent behavior arises from the actions of an individual seeking to maximize its received reward signals in a complex and changing world”. Meanwhile, reinforcement learning is the way to realize AI.
The authors introduced a novel approach called deep meta-reinforcement learning (meta-RL) which can rapidly adapt to new tasks.
A glance at the state of the art research shows that neural networks would still serve us, and artificial general intelligence is not yet in sight.
