Photo by Kelly Sikkema on UnsplashMusic recordings can come with a variety of instrumental tracks, such as lead vocals, piano, drums, bass, etc. Each track is called a stem and, for most people, isolating those stems comes quite naturally when they are listening to a song. For example, if you listen to Old Time Rock n Roll, you will hear the piano stem at the beginning, Bob … [Read more...] about Music Source Separation with Spleeter on Google Colab

Hello people, i am looking to crowdfund a total amount of $30k to support myself for the next 3 years, as I research, learn and build in my interest areas which revolves a lot around Artificial Intelligence among a few other things. One of my current final goals, is to build an Augmented Reality Glass, called Iris, that can replace everything that one does on a daily basis on a … [Read more...] about I, Arc, am looking to fundraise $30k

Momentum is a widely-used strategy for accelerating the convergence of gradient-based optimization techniques. Momentum was designed to speed up learning in directions of low curvature, without becoming unstable in directions of high curvature. In deep learning, most practitioners set the value of momentum to 0.9 without attempting to further tune this hyperparameter (i.e., … [Read more...] about Why 0.9? Towards Better Momentum Strategies in Deep Learning.

QWOP is a simple running game where the player controls a ragdoll’s lower body joints with 4 buttons. The game is surprisingly difficult and shows the complexity of human locomotion. Using machine learning techniques, I was able to train an AI bot to run like a human and achieve a finish time of 1m 8s, a top 10 speedrun. This article walks through the general approach as well … [Read more...] about Achieving human-level performance in QWOP using Reinforcement Learning and Imitation Learning

THIS ARTICLE WAS ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED ON FOREIGN POLICY | FEBRUARY 16, 2021, 12:33 PMEven before the COVID-19 pandemic, health care services around the world were due for a digital transformation; with resources relatively scarce and diagnostics increasingly complicated, the sector needed new technology to allow doctors to provide the best possible care. The pandemic has kicked … [Read more...] about After the Pandemic, Health Care Will Still Be Broken: Artificial intelligence can help fix it.

Recently, Natural Language Processing has attracted a lot of research interest which has resulted in a number of models, tasks, datasets, etc. for nuerous languages. This has lead to an explosion of experimental settings making it infeasible to collect high-quality test sets for each setting. Moreover, even for tasks where we do have a wide variety of test data( e.g. machine … [Read more...] about Can We Predict Performance of an NLP Model without Actually Training or Testing it?

This is the fourth post in a series about improving human-bot relations in customer service. See my page to get caught up.Photo: meo via PexelsAbsent a bug in the system, software programs have a hard time getting distracted. An algorithm can repeat the same rote task millions of times without so much as a glance at the football scores. More than this, programs stick to their … [Read more...] about Stick to your priorities without becoming a robot: improve organizational focus in customer service

I don’t recall my college roommate ever mentioning the term “AI” or “artificial intelligence.” For the better part of two years of college, though, he talked about neural networks non-stop.For the past several years, almost every new or re-invented company we read about is an AI company. I’m not sure how that’s even possible, yet here we are.There is an emerging discussion … [Read more...] about An Acclimation to AI
