AI helps patients to get more rest while reducing staff workload

A team from Feinstein Institutes for Research thinks AI could be key to helping patients get more rest while reducing the burden on healthcare staff. Everyone knows how important adequate sleep is for recovery. However, patients in pain – or just insomniacs like me – can struggle to get the sleep they need. “Rest is […]

When AI Sees a Man, It Thinks ‘Official.’ A Woman? ‘Smile’

Men often judge women by their appearance. Turns out, computers do too. When US and European researchers fed pictures of congressmembers to Google’s cloud image recognition service, the service applied three times as many annotations related to physical appearance to photos of women as it did to men. The top labels applied to men were […]

AI tool may predict movies’ future ratings

Movie ratings can determine a movie’s appeal to consumers and the size of its potential audience. Thus, they have an impact on a film’s bottom line. Typically, humans do the tedious task of manually rating a movie based on viewing the movie and making decisions on the presence of violence, drug abuse and sexual content. […]

IBM’s latest AI predicts Alzheimer’s better than standard tests

IBM has developed a new AI model which predicts the onset of Alzheimer’s better than standard clinical tests. The AI is designed to be non-invasive and uses a short language sample from a verbal cognitive test given to a patient. Using this sample, the AI model is able to predict the onset of Alzheimer’s with […]

Android gains support for hardware-accelerated PyTorch inference

Google’s Android team today unveiled a prototype feature that enables developers to use Facebook’s PyTorch machine learning platform with hardware-accelerated inference. This helps more developers to exploit the ability of the Android Neural Network API (NNAPI) to run computer-intensive on-device AI models. This collaboration between the Android team and Facebook, Google says, will allow millions […]

OpenAI proposes using reciprocity to encourage AI agents to work together

Many real-world concerns involve complex teamwork, e.g. individuals or algorithms, between multiple agents. In this respect, a machine learning technique called multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) has demonstrated success, primarily in two-team games such as Go, DOTA 2, StarCraft, hide-and-seek, and flag capture. But there’s a much messier human world than sports. That’s because people face […]
