NOTE: The following is a guest blog post authored by Kristin Slanina, Chief Transformation Officer with the BigML sales and delivery partner, Thirdware. When most people think of Machine Learning in automotive, it’s in relation to how it can help in plant operations – predictive maintenance, diagnostic predictions, process optimization, etc. Effective use of Machine […]
Automated Decision Engineering for Everyone: INFORM and BigML to enable Next Generation Data-driven Applications
We are happy to report that INFORM GmbH and BigML have agreed to terms on a preferred partner program to further ingrain best practice machine-learned algorithms to the daily fight against financial crime with RiskShield. We have collectively recognized great synergies between our respective technologies and will bring a unique approach to the fight against […]
Racial slurs hurled by a machine learning algorithm
Awesome, not awesome. #Awesome“…We’ve never directly detected or measured dark matter, but we know it exists because we can see its influence on the universe. Many of the movements of different stars and galaxies cannot be explained by the gravity exerted by the matter we can see…A team of researchers from ETH Zurich in Switzerland trained […]
Launching the BigML Certified Architect course: October 15, 2019 (First Wave)
BigML’s education initiatives are an integral part of what makes the platform useful and popular as they continually generate a new class of autonomous power users of Machine Learning that can creatively explore predictive problems to serve their customers. For almost two years, we’ve been offering our BigML Certified Engineer program, which has produced an […]
AutoML: BigML Automated Machine Learning
Last year, BigML launched the OptiML resource for Automatic Model Optimization. Without a doubt, it has marked a milestone in our Machine Learning platform. Since then, many users have included OptiML in their Machine Learning toolboxes. However, some users are asking us to go further than model selection, so today we’re presenting BigML’s AutoML, an […]
The secret “Sea Mob” weapon and AI on the battlefield
Awesome, not awesome. #Awesome“A team from AI pharma startup Insilico Medicine, working with researchers at the University of Toronto, took 21 days to create 30,000 designs for molecules that target a protein linked with fibrosis (tissue scarring). They synthesized six of these molecules in the lab and then tested two in cells; the most promising one […]
Bring Machine Learning to PostgreSQL with BigML
As of late, we’ve been using PostgreSQL in BigML quite a lot, and so do some of our customers. We love the features that they are bringing in the next release (which is in Beta as I write) and particularly the one that allows creating what they call generated columns. In this post, I’ll be […]
Self-driving tech pioneer charged with 33 counts of theft
Awesome, not awesome. #Awesome“[If machine behavior suddenly became a mature field,] I think we would be able to better diagnose emergent [technological] problems, and maybe anticipate them. For example, for somebody designing Facebook and its news feed algorithm, maybe we would have known early enough that this was going to lead to a far more polarized […]
AI can help prevent mass shootings
Awesome, not awesome. #Awesome“Millions of people communicate using sign language, but so far projects to capture its complex gestures and translate them to verbal speech have had limited success. A new advance in real-time hand tracking from Google’s AI labs, however, could be the breakthrough some have been waiting for. The new technique uses a few […]
Who is listening to your most intimate conversations?
Awesome, not awesome. #Awesome“I do believe that AI is the largest technology force of our time. We will not likely see another one like this. The automation of automation, the automation of intelligence, is such an incredible idea that if we could continue to improve this capability, the applications are really quite boundless. When you think […]
