Neural networks power today’s AI boom. To understand them, all we need is a map, a cat and a few thousand dimensions. Look at a picture of a cat, and you’ll instantly recognize it as a cat. But try to ...

During my first semester as a computer science graduate student at Princeton, I took COS 402: Artificial Intelligence. Toward the end of the semester, there was a lecture about neural networks. This ...

How do neural networks work? It's a question that can confuse novices and experts alike. A team from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) says that understanding these ...

The simplified approach makes it easier to see how neural networks produce the outputs they do. A tweak to the way artificial neurons work in neural networks could make AIs easier to decipher.

A Queen’s research team has developed a new way to train AI systems so they focus on the bigger picture instead of specific, optimized data.

“Neural networks are currently the most powerful tools in artificial intelligence,” said Sebastian Wetzel, a researcher at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics. “When we scale them up to ...

The brains of humans and other primates are known to execute various sophisticated functions, one of which is the representation of the space immediately surrounding the body. This area, also ...

The progress in AI over the past decade is beginning to suggest answers to some of our deepest questions about human intelligence. Below, Tom Griffiths shares five key insights from his new book, The ...

Deep learning is increasingly used in financial modeling, but its lack of transparency raises risks. Using the well-known Heston option pricing model as a benchmark, researchers show that global ...
