Since the success of deep learning in computer vision in 2012, we have seen its rapid extension to many AI domains: From speech recognition to machine translation, from game playing to robotics, deep learning has shown versatile capabilities of tackling different types of AI problems. The most notable development is in natural language processing (NLP), where BERT, a deep learning model based on t... Continue reading
A few years ago I attended a talk by Foxconn’s CTO. When he mentioned that Foxconn was the third largest robot manufacturer at that time, I was surprised. “In fact,” he added, “we have already built a lights-out factory.” He showed a video clip: In a factory, mobile robots moved around, robotic arms worked on components, and conveying belts were rolling smoothly. There was not a single p... Continue reading
The most exciting developments of AI in 2018 is AutoML. It automates machine learning process. In January this year, Google released AutoML Vision. Then in July Google launched AutoML for machine translation and natural language processing. Both packages have been used by companies such as Disney in practical applications. Google’s AutoML is based on Neural Architecture Search (NAS), invented in... Continue reading
