Communauté francaise de Machine Learning / Data science - dscientist

Bonjour,
Il existe des communautés anglaises, russes de Machine Learning. En France, il y a de quelques petites communauté (basée sur la localisation ou le domaine spécifique) mais pas une communauté globale. Aujourd'hui dscientist.slack.com est né et permet de regrouper les personnes francophones s'intéressants à ces domaines. L'objectif principal est le partage d'expériences, de connaissances et une veille commune sur l'IA et le ML.

Si vous êtes intéressé(e), rejoignez cette communauté via le lien ci-dessous.

ML system used to create complex and accurate simulation of the universe

The speed and accuracy of the project, called the Deep Density Displacement Model, or #D3M for short, wasn't the biggest surprise to the researchers. The real shock was that D3M could accurately simulate how the universe would look if certain parameters were tweaked — such as how much of the cosmos is dark matter — even though the model had never received any training data where those parameters varied.

​​XLNet: Generalized Autoregressive Pretraining for Language Understanding

Researchers at Google Brain and Carnegie Mellon introduce #XLNet, a pre-training algorithm for natural language processing systems. It helps NLP models (in this case, based on Transformer-XL) achieve state-of-the-art results in 18 diverse language-understanding tasks including question answering and sentiment analysis.

Yet another good intro into difference between artificial neural network and biological one.

If you're getting started in Data Science, you need to start with the basic building building block of Neural Networks - a Perceptron. To understand what it is, there's this good link to get started with.

Facebook, Carnegie Mellon build first AI that beats pros in 6-player poker

Main theoretical output: practical proof that carefully constructed AI algorithm can reach superhuman performance outside of two-player zero-sum games.

Training time: 8 days
Server: 64 core and 512 GB of RAM
Est. Cost to train: $150

The question whether that means end of the online poker, remains open for everyone to answer (or even try to train such bot themselves and take part).

Vote 🃏 if you believe the industry won't notice.
Vote 🤖 if you believe that it will be affected.
