An evaluation of the accuracy-efficiency tradeoffs of neural language models
A team of researchers at the University of Waterloo in Canada has recently carried out a study exploring accuracy-efficiency tradeoffs of neural language models (NLMs) specifically applied to mobile devices. In their paper, which was pre-published on arXiv, the...
Big Data Analytics to automatically detect events in smart cities
With a growing number of devices connected to the internet and countless people sharing their live experiences online, a huge amount of useful data is being generated every minute. The analysis of this data could improve the dissemination and understanding of...
Exploring the resurrection of digital consciousness using AI
Researchers at Shree Devi Institute of Technology, in India, have recently carried out a study investigating the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to communicate with deceased loved ones. Like in the chilling sci-fi fantasy foreshadowed by popular television series...
An evaluation of mouse dynamics for intrusion detection
Researchers at Sapientia University in Romania and Université de Lyon have recently carried out a performance evaluation of unrestricted mouse usage for impostor detection. Their findings, pre-published on arXiv, suggest that drag-and-drop mouse actions are the most...
A new developmental reinforcement learning approach for sensorimotor space enlargement
Researchers at the University of Lorraine have recently devised a new type of transfer learning based on model-free deep reinforcement learning with continuous sensorimotor space enlargement. Their approach, presented in a paper published during the eighth Joint IEEE...
A light-weight and accurate deep learning model for audiovisual emotion recognition
Researchers at Orange Labs and Normandie University have developed a novel deep neural model for audiovisual emotion recognition that performs well with small training sets. Their study, which was pre-published on arXiv, follows a philosophy of simplicity,...
