The predictive power of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has proven itself and its value is no longer under scrutiny. This should explain why the AI adoption has been so prevalent in recent years. The technology has been applied to many use cases such as finance (determine which applicant gets a…
Introduction Having been involved in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for years, I can attest that becoming proficient in this field is not an easy undertaking. The complexity stems from its multi-dimensionality. In other words, gaining competence in AI requires competencies in math, statistics,…
Five years ago, there was no integrated circuit (IC) product category called “Deep Learning Processors”. Training and inference of large Artificial Intelligence (AI) models was primarily done by high-end servers and Graphics Processing Units (GPU). What a change can five years make. Presently there are…
AI-Based Object Detection and Text Extraction Technologies Have Revolutionized the Document Processing Domain The short answer to the posed question in the title is “a lot”. To set the stage for this article, I would like start with an example. Consider being tasked to analyze…
NIPS2016 (Neural Information Processing System) is an annual event that attracts the best and the brightest of the field of Machine Learning both from academia as well as industry. I attended this event last week for the very first time and was blown away by the volume and diversity…
Progressive companies have learned early on that customer acquisition is a very costly and lengthy proposition and maintaining a strong and loyal customer base is a crucial premise for any company. This should explain why well-managed companies will go through lengths to preserve and grow…
Many new machine learning technologies, architectures, and algorithms being proposed, but here are three macro trends that will become game changers in ML. The topics of machine learning and, particularly, deep learning are clearly among the hottest topics covered by many tech publications. While the…
Advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Language Processing (e.g. chatbots, smart speakers) and Image Processing (e.g. vision in autonomous vehicles) have been astounding. Fortunately, the magic does not stop there. Deep Learning models have also been very effective in other domains and have produced wonders when it comes to reducing company…
2016 has been a prolific year for Machine Learning/AI companies in all fronts. In this post I have tried to capture some notable funding rounds and acquisitions of Machine Learning (ML) startups that took place last year. Admittedly there are too many of these events and I…
