TensorFlow: A new generation of Google's Machine Learning Open Source Library


Although Machine Learning has dominated the Artificial Intelligence scene for long, easy access to open source machine learning libraries is recently made possible. With the launch of TensorFlow, Google has made it possible for corporates to add intelligence to make sense of data.

TensorFlow adds to the list of other popular open source Machine Learning libraries like Theano and Torch. The uniqueness of TensorFlow is that it has the strong support of Google, which is one of the early pioneers in AI research. Google, using DistBelief, has delivered a lot of successful tools such as Computer Vision, Speech Recognition, Natural Language Processing, Information Extraction, Geographic Information Extraction, Computational Drug Discovery, Language Translation, etc. Tensorflow is Google's second generation machine learning system. 

Teaching machines was never so easy. TensorFlow lets you use most of the machine learning algorithms that Google employees use to add intelligence to their products.

To learn more about TensorFlow check TensorFlow's official website at TensorFlow. 

With the world heading towards making machines more intelligent, we at CereLabs are closely monitoring how our research and engineering teams can benefit from the unlimited set of Machine Learning open source libraries.

As we proceed to take this journey, we will keep adding our experience of TensorFlow. Keep looking at this blog for future updates.

GPU - The brain of Artificial Intelligence

Machine Learning algorithms require tens and thousands of CPU based servers to train a model, which turns out to be an expensive activity. Machine Learning researchers and engineers are often faced with the problem of running their algorithms fast. Although initially invented for processing graphics in computer games, GPUs today are used in machine learning to perform feature detection from vast amount of unlabeled data. Compared to CPUs, GPUs take far less time to train models that perform classification and prediction. Characteristics of GPUs that make them ideal for machine learning Handle large datasets Needs far less data centre infrastructure Can be specialized for specific machine learning needs Perform vector computations faster than any known processor Designed to perform data parallel computation NVIDIA CUDA GPUs today are used to build deep learning image processing tools for  Adobe Creative Cloud. According to NVIDIA blog future Adobe applicati

Understanding Projection Pursuit Regression

The following article gives an overview of the paper "Projection Pursuit Regression” published by Friedman J. H and Stuetzle W. You will need basic background of Machine Learning and Regression before understanding this article. The algorithms and images are taken from the paper. ( http://www.stat.washington.edu/courses/stat527/s13/readings/FriedmanStuetzle_JASA_1981.pdf )  What is Regression? Regression is a machine learning technology used to predict a response variable given multiple predictor variables or features. The main distinction is that the response to be predicted is any real value and not just any class or cluster name. Hence though similar to Classification in terms of making a prediction, it is largely different given what it’s predicting.  A simple to understand real world problem of regression would be predicting the sale price of a particular house based on it’s square footage, given that we have data of similar houses sold in that area in the past.

Anomaly Detection based on Prediction - A Step Closer to General Artificial Intelligence

Anomaly detection refers to the problem of finding patterns that do not conform to expected behavior [1]. In the last article "Understanding Neocortex to Create Intelligence" , we explored how applications based on the workings of neocortex create intelligence. Pattern recognition along with prediction makes human brains the ultimate intelligent machines. Prediction help humans to detect anomalies in the environment. Before every action is taken, neocortex predicts the outcome. If there is a deviation from the expected outcome, neocortex detects anomalies, and will take necessary steps to handle them. A system which claims to be intelligent, should have anomaly detection in place. Recent findings using research on neocortex have made it possible to create applications that does anomaly detection. Numenta’s NuPIC using Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM) framework is able to do inference and prediction, and hence anomaly detection. HTM accurately predicts anomalies in real
