Source: venturebeat.com UC Berkeley AI researchers say they’ve created AI for autonomous vehicles driving in unseen, real-world landscapes that outperforms leading methods for delivery robots driving on sidewalks. Called LaND, for Learning to Navigate from Disengagements, the navigation system studies disengagement events, then predicts when disengagements will happen in the future. The approach is meant Read More

Source: venturebeat.com A preprint paper coauthored by scientists at Facebook AI Research describes Rewarding Impact-Driven Exploration (RIDE), an intrinsic reward method that encourages AI-driven agents to take actions in an environment. The researchers say that it outperforms state-of-the-art methods on hard exploration tasks in procedurally generated worlds, a sign it might be a candidate for devices like robot Read More

Source: analyticsindiamag.com AI research startup DeepMind has now open-sourced new libraries for neural networks and reinforcement learning based on JAX. JAX is a numerical computing library launched by Google a couple of years ago, and can automatically differentiate native Python and NumPy functions. JAX uses XLA (Accelerated Linear Algebra) to compile and run your NumPy programs Read More

Source: venturebeat.com Facebook AI Research (FAIR) today unveiled PyTorch3D, a library that enables researchers and developers to combine deep learning and 3D objects. As part of the release, Facebook is also open-sourcing Mesh R-CNN, a model introduced last year capable of rendering 3D objects from 2D shapes in images of interior spaces. PyTorch3D was inspired by Mesh Read More

Source – wired.com THE GRAPHICS ARE not dazzling, but a simple sumo-wrestling videogame released Wednesday might help make artificial-intelligence software much smarter. Robots that battle inside the virtual world of RoboSumo are controlled by machine-learning software, not humans. Unlike computer characters in typical videogames, they weren’t pre-programmed to wrestle; instead they had to “learn” the sport by trial and Read More

Once humans developartificial intelligence, it will take off on its own and redesign itself at an ever-increasing rate. Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn’t compete and would be superseded.” This sounds like it could be an excerpt Read More
