One of the most annoying things about clicking on an image or video online is finding out that it is extremely blurry or low-resolution. I never really knew how to deal with those low-resolution videos, other than waiting and hoping that my internet connection would somehow get better. But it seems that a more timely… Read more Twitter’s Magic Pony

Neural Networks - Garbage in, garbage out

I came across this article and I am somewhat concerned about how much we are potentially relying on neural nets and their “supposed” efficacy. https://physicsworld.com/a/neural-networks-explained/ 0

Diving through the layers of Artificial Intelligence

When reading about artificial intelligence we see terms like neural networks, deep learning, machine learning, reinforcement learning and more thrown about. Some of these terms are often interrelated and can be substituted to discuss the same subject matter, whereas others are mutually exclusive. In this post, I aim to provide clarity on the various subgroups… Read more Diving through the layers of Artificial Intelligence

Machine Learning Transforms Google Translate Overnight

Compare these two different translations of Ernest Hemingway’s “The Snows of Kilimanjaro”. This passage was first translated into Japanese by Jun Rekimoto, a professor of human-computer interaction, at the University of Tokyo. Google Translate was then used to convert back to English [1]. From Google Translate: Kilimanjaro is a mountain of 19,710 feet covered with snow… Read more Machine Learning Transforms Google Translate Overnight

What Are Neural Networks?

Intelligence can be described as “the ability to perceive information, retain it as knowledge, and apply it to adaptive behaviors within an environment or context” [1]. The ability to exercise intelligence has been a key differentiator between animals and computers. The prior has a complex brain that is able to simultaneously digest various bits of… Read more What Are Neural Networks?
