AbstractDeep learning is nowadays at the forefront of artificial intelligence. More precisely, the use of convolutional neural networks has drastically improved the learning capabilities of computer vision applications, being able to directly consider raw data without any prior feature extraction. Advanced methods in the machine learning field, such as adaptive momentum algorithms or dropout regularization, have dramatically improved the convolutional neural networks predicting ability, outperforming that of conventional fully connected neural networks. This work summarizes, in an intended didactic way, the main aspects of these cutting-edge techniques from a medical imaging perspective.

LogicSNN, a unified spiking neural networks (SNN) logical operation paradigm is proposed in this paper. First, we define the logical variables under the semantics of SNN. Then, we design the network structure of this paradigm and use spike-timing-dependent plasticity for training. According to this paradigm, six kinds of basic SNN binary logical operation modules and three kinds of combined logical networks based on these basic modules are implemented. Through these experiments, the rationality, cascading characteristics and the potential of building large-scale network of this paradigm are verified. This study fills in the blanks of the logical operation of SNN and provides a possible way to realize more complex machine learning capabilities.

Context-aware middlewares support applications with context management. Current middlewares support both hardware and software sensors providing data in structured forms (e.g., temperature, wind, and smoke sensors). Nevertheless, recent advances in machine learning paved the way for acquiring context from information-rich, loosely structured data such as audio or video signals. This paper describes a framework (CAMeL) enriching context-aware middlewares with machine learning capabilities. The framework is focused on acquiring contextual information from sensors providing loosely structured data without the need for developers of implementing dedicated application code or making use of external libraries. Nevertheless the general goal of context-aware middlewares is to make applications more dynamic and adaptive, and the proposed framework itself can be programmed for dynamically selecting sensors and machine learning algorithms on a contextual basis. We show with experiments and case studies how the CAMeL framework can (i) promote code reuse and reduce the complexity of context-aware applications by natively supporting machine learning capabilities and (ii) self-adapt using the acquired context allowing improvements in classification accuracy while reducing energy consumption on mobile platforms.

Education is the vital parameter of the country for development in divergent areas like cultivation, economic, political, health and so on. Any educational Institute’s (universities, colleges, schools) main goal is to increase the student’s learning capabilities and their skills for their full contribution towards the society. In these days, “student’s learning process and skill development” research topic requires much needed attention for the betterment of the society. The student’s performance depends on his/her learning ability and is influenced by many factors. In this paper, we analyze the different categories of student’s leanings that are very fast, fast, moderate and slow. For this, we conducted the training and tests for attributes like ability, knowledge level, reasoning and core subject abilities for the 313 engineering students in AITAM, Tekkali, affiliated to JNTUK, India from 2017 to 2019. We gathered information about personal, academic, cognitive level and demographic data of students. In this experiment, we are conducting statistical analysis as well as classification of students into 4 types of learners and applying the different Machine Learning (ML) techniques and choose the best ML algorithm for predicting students learning rates. This leads to conducting the remedial classes with new teaching methods for moderate and slow leaning students. The proposed paper accommodates the individual differences of the learners in terms of knowledge level, learning preferences, cognitive abilities etc. For this, we apply 5 ML algorithms that are Naive Bayes, classification Trees (CTs), k-NN, C4.5 and SVM. As per ML analysis, the k-Nearest Neighborhood (k-NN) algorithm is more efficient than other algorithms where the accuracy and prediction values are nearer to 100%.

Discussions around Covid-19 apps and models demonstrated that primary challenges for AI and data science focused on governance and ethics. Personal information was involved in building data sets. It was unclear how this information could be utilized in large scale models to provide predictions and insights while observing privacy requirements. Most people expected a lot from technology but were unwilling to sacrifice part of their privacy for building it. Conversely, regulators and policy makers require AI and data science practitioners to ensure optimal public health, national security while avoiding these privacy-related struggles. Their choices vary largely from country to country and are driven more by cultural aspects, and less by machine learning capabilities. The question is whether current ways to design technology and work with data sets are sustainable and lead to a good outcome for individuals and their communities. At the same time Covid-19 made it obvious that economies and societies cannot succeed without far-reaching digital policies, touching every aspect of how we provide and receive education, live, and work. Most regions, businesses and individuals struggled to benefit from competitive capabilities modern data technologies could bring. This opinion paper suggests how Germany and Europe can rethink their digital policy while recognizing the value of data, introducing Data IDs for consumers and businesses, committing to support innovation in decentralized data technologies, introducing concepts of Data Trusts and compulsory education around data starting from the early school age. Besides, it discusses advantages of data-tokens to shape a new ecosystem for decentralized data exchange. Furthermore, it emphasizes the necessity to develop and promote technologies to work with small data sets and handle data in compliance with privacy regulations, keeping in mind costs for the environment while bidding on big data and large-scale machine learning models. Finally, innovation as an integral part of any data scientist's job will be called for.

Nowadays, in the age of Industry 4.0 the Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning capabilities have important role in the implementation of this new paradigm in the industrial sector. Especially in industrial robotics technology where the main target is improving the productivity, which requires the improvement on the rigid, inflexible capabilities of industrial robots. This article presents an overview of AI algorithms used in industrial robotics. In the first part of the article an overview about the Machine Learning algorithms used for industrial robots will be discussed. In the second part of the study we will introduce the most important AI algorithms used to optimize and improve the trajectory of robotic arms.
