July Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence News Digest

Hello reader! Having filtered out a large number of sources and subscriptions for you, I collected all the most significant news from the world of machine learning and artificial intelligence for July. Do not forget to share with colleagues, or simply with those who are interested in such news.



For those who have not read the digest for June, you can read it here .



So, now the July digest itself.



1. VKontakte published a library for pre-processing text data. YouTokenToMe is a text data preprocessing library. The tool works 7-10 times faster than analogues for texts in alphabetical languages โ€‹โ€‹and 40-50 in hieroglyphic languages. The library was developed by researchers from VKontakte. โ†’ Read more

2. Data on Russians will be allowed to be used without their knowledge. Amendments to the law "On Personal Data" were presented to the government by the vice speaker of the Federation Council Andrei Turchak. It follows from them that the owner of the data will be required to anonymize them so that no additional information will help to reveal the person.

12. Researchers at the Flatiron Institute have developed a 3D simulation of the universe based on neural networks. The simulator will help astrophysicists study the effects of factors on the development of space. D3M learns to predict the space structure nonlinearly and more accurately than the basic 2LPT model. Researchers have published code and data in a repository on GitHub .

15. In China, artificial intelligence recognizes dogs by nose prints. The new Megvii program is able to recognize dogs by their nose prints - they are as unique as people's fingerprints. Users of the Megvii application can register their pet simply by scanning their nose using the smartphoneโ€™s camera.

16. Reliable neural machine translation. In recent years, Neural Machine Translation (NMT) using Transformer models has been a huge success. Based on deep neural networks, NMT models typically go through end-to-end training on very large parallel cases (text I / O pairs) entirely based on data and without the need to impose explicit language rules.

17. Parrotron: new research to improve verbal communication for people with speech disorders. Most people take it for granted that when they speak, they will be heard and understood. But for millions of people who live with speech impairment caused by physical or neurological conditions, trying to communicate with other people can be difficult and frustrating.
