Why Tensorflow


You have a lot of data which you want to make sense of, learn patterns, but you don't have the necessary expertice to develop algorithms that will learn through the data. Ofcourse you can develop your own machine learning algorithms to make sense of the data. There might be benifits in developing your own algorithms, proprietary being one, but you might have to invest time and money.

What if you have access to ready made machine learning algorithms which you just have to use in your products? Google's Tensorflow offers such tried and tested algorithms using APIs that you just have to call in your programs. All you have to provide is data, and Tensorflow will take care of the intelligence to learn.

Tensorflow adds the following capabilities to your products
1. Access to machine learning algorithms such as Neural Networks.
2. Increase performance of your models using multiple CPUs and GPUs without change in code.
3. Do numerical computations using data flow graphs.

How is AI Saving the Future

Meanwhile the talk of AI being the number one risk of human extinction is going on, there are lot many ways it is helping humanity. Recent developments in Machine Learning are helping scientists to solve difficult problems ranging from climate change to finding the cure for cancer. It will be a daunting task for humans to understand enormous amount of data that is generated all over the world. Machine Learning is helping scientists to use algorithms that learn from data and find patterns. Below is a list of few of the problems AI is working on to help find solutions which otherwise would not have been possible: Cancer Diagnostics : Recently, scientists at University of California (UCLA) applied Deep Learning to extract features for achieving high accuracy in label-free cell classification. This technique will help in faster cancer diagnostics, and thus will save a lot of lives. Low Cost Renewable Energy : Artificial-intelligence is helping wind power forecasts of u...

In the World of Document Similarity

How does a human infer whether two documents are similar? This question has dazzled cognitive scientists, and is one area under which a lot of research is taking place. As of  now there is no product that is able to match or surpass human capability in finding the similarity in documents. But things are improving in this domain, and companies such as IBM and Microsoft are investing a lot in this area. We at Cere Labs, an Artificial Intelligence startup based in Mumbai, also are working in this area, and have applied LDA and Word2Vec techniques, both giving us promising results: Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) : LDA is a technique used mainly for topic modeling. You c an leverage on this topic modeling to find the similarity between documents. It is assumed that more the topics two documents overlap, more are the chances that those documents carry semantic similarity. You can study LDA in the following paper: https://www.cs.princeton.edu/~blei/papers/BleiNgJordan20...

Anomaly Detection based on Prediction - A Step Closer to General Artificial Intelligence

Anomaly detection refers to the problem of finding patterns that do not conform to expected behavior [1]. In the last article "Understanding Neocortex to Create Intelligence" , we explored how applications based on the workings of neocortex create intelligence. Pattern recognition along with prediction makes human brains the ultimate intelligent machines. Prediction help humans to detect anomalies in the environment. Before every action is taken, neocortex predicts the outcome. If there is a deviation from the expected outcome, neocortex detects anomalies, and will take necessary steps to handle them. A system which claims to be intelligent, should have anomaly detection in place. Recent findings using research on neocortex have made it possible to create applications that does anomaly detection. Numenta’s NuPIC using Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM) framework is able to do inference and prediction, and hence anomaly detection. HTM accurately predicts anomalies in real...
