This is a luxury that many cant afford. The concepts and science behind deep learning and neural networks is as old as the term artificial intelligence itself. But until recent years, they had been largely dismissed by the AI community for being inefficient. To train a deep learning model, you basically must feed aneural web connection with lots of annotated examples. AI engineers can use these sources to train their deep learning models....

The U.S. Constitution mandates that every 10 years the Census Bureau count every person living in the United States. The census has continuously adopted new technological tools to make the process easier, cheaper, and more accurate. This year, for the first time, the bureau is aiming togo predominantly digital.

Similarly to some game engines....

There seems to be some confusion when it comes to JavaScript modules. Some developers are unsure of how they work and why are various ways that they can be used. First, lets explore background of JavaScript modules. JavaScript programs started as simple scripts or apps that had rather small codebases. Node.JS had that ability for a while before it was incorporated in JavaScript with a feature called modules. Eventually, they made it to the language itself and the browsers....

What is the master algorithm that allows humans to be so efficient at learning things? 40% off TNW Conference! Artificial neural networks are inspired by their biological counterparts and venture to emulate the learning behavior of organic brains. But as Zador explains, learning in ANNs is much different from what is happening in the brain. Each layer of the neural connection will extract specific features from the input image. But when it comes to humans and animals, learning finds a different meaning....

If somebody asks you where the center of the solar system is, you would probably say the sun. The orrery shows it all. Everything orbits around the sun (which we knew a lot earlier than most think. Geocentric beliefs were kind of always pseudo science). Except that its not that simple. What is a barycenter? A barycenter is the point in any system around which the objects in the system orbit....
