Galois Theory of Algorithms (2018) [pdf]

Hacker News

Many different programs are the implementation of the same algorithm. The collection of programs can be partitioned into different classes corresponding to the algorithms they implement. This makes the collection of algorithms a quotient of the collection of programs. We investigate how a quotient object sits inside an object.

Algorithmic biases – Is it a challenge to achieve fairness in AI?

Data Science Dojo

Just like people, Algorithmic biases can occur sometimes. AI algorithms are used to make decisions about everything from who gets a loan to what ads we see online. However, AI algorithms can be biased, which can have a negative impact on people’s lives. Thinking why? Well, think of AI as making those characters.

[AI/ML] Keswani’s Algorithm for 2-player Non-Convex Min-Max Optimization

Towards AI

Keswani’s Algorithm introduces a novel approach to solving two-player non-convex min-max optimization problems, particularly in differentiable sequential games where the sequence of player actions is crucial. Keswani’s Algorithm: The algorithm essentially makes response function : maxy∈{R^m} f (.,

From Academia to Industry: How a 2018 Paper Foreshadowed OpenAI’s Latest Innovation

NYU Center for Data Science

The tweet linked to a paper from 2018, hinting at the foundational research behind these now-commercialized ideas. Back in 2018, recent CDS PhD grad Katrina Drozdov (née Evtimova), Cho, and their colleagues published a paper at ICLR called “ Emergent Communication in a Multi-Modal, Multi-Step Referential Game.”

First Step to Object Detection Algorithms

Heartbeat

How do Object Detection Algorithms Work? There are two main categories of object detection algorithms. Two-Stage Algorithms: Two-stage object detection algorithms consist of two different stages. Single-stage object detection algorithms do the whole process through a single neural network model.

STAT+: Machine learning biotech raises $273 million in rare successful late-stage round

Flipboard

Generate was founded in 2018 by venture-creation firm Flagship Pioneering to use machine learning algorithms to identify antibodies, peptides, cell therapies, and other medicines. It launched its first clinical trial in July for a Covid monoclonal antibody, and is working on starting another clinical trial for an asthma treatment.
