Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the field developing computers and robots capable of parsing data contextually to provide requested information, supply analysis, or trigger events based on findings. Through techniques like machine learning and neural networks, companies globally are investing in teaching machines to ‘think’ more like humans. Below are some of the latest AI news from the industry:
Detecting novel systemic biomarkers in external eye photos
Posted by Boris Babenko, Software Engineer, and Akib Uddin, Product Manager, Google Research Last year we presented results demonstrating that a deep learning system (DLS) can be trained to analyze external eye photos and predict a person’s diabetic retinal disease status and elevated glycated hemoglobin (or HbA1c, a biomarker that indicates the three-month ...
Towards Behavior-Driven AI Development
Figure 1: Behavior-driven AI development centers model iteration on evaluating and improving specific real-world use cases. It has never been easier to prototype AI-driven systems. With a bit of programming knowledge and a couple of hours, you can spin up a chatbot for your notes, a text-based image editor, or a tool for summarizing customer feedback. Bu ...
