Computer Vision News - September 2022

25 AI Spotlight News The Spelled-Out Intro to Neural Networks and Backpropagation: Building Micrograd This is a formidable step-by-step spelled-out explanation of backpropagation and training of neural networks, in a very successful video by Andrej Karpathy , who led the computer vision team at Tesla Autopilot . It’s a long thing (two and a half hour), but you do not have towatch it all. It is divided in 22 parts and the content of every part is listed in the description of the video - with the timestamp of each. You only need basic knowledge of Python and a vague recollection of calculus from high school to enjoy the vid. Thank you, Andrej, for this amazing gift to the AI community! Watch the Video! 5 Steps to Building and Implementing Artificial Intelligence Solutions Five recommendations that we all can agree about, to keep in mind as you add AI solutions to your current operations. In a nutshell: establish clear project goals, collect data thoroughly, define your learning model, find the right AI partner, and plan human implementation. The only thing that the author of this nice essay forgot to say, is that a great start to choosing the right partner is calling RSIP Vision and studying with our AI experts the best ways to succeed your AI project. Our technologies are at the forefront of medical image analysis, contributing to multiple medical systems and surgical procedures. ReadMore Instagram Unleashes an AI System to Blast Away Nasty Comments Just like other platforms, Instagram has turned to Artificial Intelligence, training machines to carry out human-level functions - combat spam and hateful comments on the platform. One way is using DeepText , a text classification engine developed by its parent company, Facebook , to weed out unwanted comments. DeepText uses “ word embeddings ”, which means it is designed to understand the context in which a suspect word is found, mimicking the way language works in our brains. Skeptical IG users can opt out of this function and keep enjoying the ugliness of the Web, if they so desire... Read More
