Reservoir computing is a promising computational framework based on recurrent neural networks (RNNs), which essentially maps input data onto a high-dimensional computational space, keeping some parameters of artificial neural networks (ANNs) fixed while updating...
Machine learning models can help to solve several real-world problems faster and more efficiently. One among these problems involves synthesizing speech for both animated characters and human speakers based on the movements of their lips.
The recent advent of generative models, computational tools that can generate new texts or images based on the data they are trained on, opened interesting new possibilities for the creative industries. For example, they allow artists and digital content creators to...
Visual place recognition (VPR) is the task of identifying the location where specific images were taken. Computer scientists have recently developed various deep learning algorithms that could effectively tackle this task, letting users know where within a known...
While artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning tools are now commonly used to enhance technological applications, the underpinnings of many of these tools are hard to decipher. This is because most of them are based on 'black box' models, models that analyze...
Past psychology and neuroscience studies have often investigated how humans perceive different faces during social interactions. Some studies suggest that on average humans tend to find some faces more attractive than others, thus their ratings for specific faces can...
Artificial intelligence (AI) models have already made their way into a wide range of real-world settings, helping humans to tackle everyday problems faster and more efficiently. Recently, computer scientists have also been exploring their potential for assisting...
Most humans are innately able to identify the individual attributes of sensory stimuli, such as objects they are seeing, sounds they are hearing, and so on. While artificial intelligence (AI) tools have become increasingly better at recognizing specific objects in...
Artificial intelligence (AI) recently started making its way into many creative industries, for instance, in the form of tools for digital artists, architects, interior designers and image editors. In these contexts, AI can automate processes that are tedious or time...
In recent years, computer scientists have been trying to develop effective models for sentiment analysis. These models are designed to analyze sentences or longer texts and autonomously determine their underlying emotional tone.
