Is my car hallucinating? Is the algorithm that runs the police surveillance system in my city paranoid? Is that how my toaster feels? This all sounds ludicrous until we realize that our algorithms are increasingly being made in our own image. As weve learned more about our own brains, weve enlisted that knowledge to create algorithmic versions of ourselves. Algorithms are becoming the near-sentient backdrop of our lives. The most popular algorithms currently being put into the workforce are deep learning algorithms....

What makes us humans so good at making sense of visual data? Thats a question that has preoccupied artificial intelligence andcomputer visionscientists for decades. 40% off TNW Conference! Deep neural networks are like layers of complex mathematical functions stacked on top of each other. images) and their corresponding outcome (e.g. the object the images contain). The DNN adjusts the weights of its functions to represent the common patterns found across objects of common classes....
More recently, however, advanced technologies in web development have made the task a bit more difficult. 40% off TNW Conference!
