Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research details the "Hello World" of image classification: a convolutional neural network (CNN) applied to the MNIST digits dataset. The "Hello World" of image ...

“Neural networks are currently the most powerful tools in artificial intelligence,” said Sebastian Wetzel, a researcher at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics. “When we scale them up to ...

Scientists propose a new way of implementing a neural network with an optical system which could make machine learning more sustainable in the future. The researchers at the Max Planck Institute for ...

Deep learning may need a new programming language that's more flexible and easier to work with than Python, Facebook AI Research director Yann LeCun said today. It's not yet clear if such a language ...

Our species owes a lot to opposable thumbs. But if evolution had given us extra thumbs, things probably wouldn’t have improved much. One thumb per hand is enough. Not so for neural networks, the ...
