SD Times news digest: Deep learning algorithm solves Rubik’s Cube, Apollo Data Graph Platform updated, and Progress’ MOVEit cloud solution
A deep learning algorithm created by researchers at the University of California Irvine (UCI) can solve Rubik’s Cubes faster than any human without any specific domain knowledge or in-game coaching from humans. In a study, the researchers demonstrated that DeepCubeA solved 100 percent of all test configurations, finding the shortest path to the goal state … continue reading
SD Times news digest: Facebook’s deep learning recommendation model, React Native 0.60 and Rust 1.36
Facebook announced that it is open-sourcing its deep learning recommendation model (DLRM) to work with categorical data, which is used to describe higher level attributes. The open-source implementation of DLRM can be used as a benchmark to measure the speed at which a model and associated operators perform and how various numerical techniques affect its … continue reading
SD Times Open-Source Project of the Week: TensorWatch
Due to the rise of deep learning and therefore its complexity, Microsoft is open-sourcing TensorWatch, its AI debugging and visualization tool that it calls the “Swiss Army knife of debugging tools.” The tool works in Jupyter Notebook, which forfeits the need of using a separate script, according to the company. It shows real-time visualization of … continue reading

Guest View: Knowledge graphs — The path to true AI
Knowledge is the foundation of intelligence— whether artificial intelligence or conventional human intellect. The understanding implicit in intelligence, its application towards business problems or personal ones, requires knowledge of these problems (and potential solutions) to effectively overcome them. The knowledge underpinning AI has traditionally come from two distinct methods: statistical reasoning, or machine learning, and … continue reading
