Natural Language Processing (NLP), a subfield of Artificial Intelligence (AI), supports the machine to understand and manipulate the human languages in different sectors.  Subsequently, the Question and answering scheme using Machine learning is a challengeable task. For an efficient QA system, understanding the category of a question plays a pivot role in extracting suitable answer. Computers can answer questions requiring single, verifiable answers but fail to answer subjective question demanding deeper understanding of question. Subjective questions can take different forms entailing deeper, multidimensional understanding of context. Identifying the intent of the question helps to extract expected answer from a given passage. Pretrained language models (LMs) have demonstrated excellent results on many language tasks. The paper proposes model of deep learning architecture in hierarchical pattern to learn the semantic of question and extracting appropriate answer. The proposed method converts the given context to fine grained embedding to capture semantic and positional representation, identifies user intent and employs a encoder model to concentrate on answer span. The proposed methods show a remarkable improvement over existing system

In recent years, we have seen a wide use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications in the Internet and everywhere. Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning are important sub-fields of AI that have made Chatbots and Conversational AI applications possible. Those algorithms are built based on historical data in order to create language models, however historical data could be intrinsically discriminatory. This article investigates whether a Conversational AI could identify offensive language and it will show how large language models often produce quite a bit of unethical behavior because of bias in the historical data. Our low-level proof-of-concept will present the challenges to detect offensive language in social media and it will discuss some steps to propitiate strong results in the detection of offensive language and unethical behavior using a Conversational AI.

Abstract Image Captioning is the process of generating textual descriptions of an image. These descriptions need to be syntactically and semantically correct. Image Captioning has potential advantages in many applications like image indexing techniques, devices for visually impaired persons, social media and several other natural language processing applications. Image Captioning is a popular research area where numerous scopes for new findings exist in preparation of datasets, generating language models, developing the models and evaluating the same. This paper extensively surveys very early literature that includes the advent of Artificial Intelligence, the Machine Learning pathway, the photography era, the early Deep Learning and the current Deep Learning methodology for image Captioning. This survey will definitely help novice researchers to understand the roadmap to current techniques.

The term, Artificial Intelligence (AI), has changed since it was first coined by John MacCarthy in 1956. AI, believed to have been created with Kurt Gödel's unprovable computational statements in 1931, is now called deep learning or machine learning. AI is defined as a computer machine with the ability to make predictions about the future and solve complex tasks, using algorithms. The AI algorithms are enhanced and become effective with big data capturing the present and the past while still necessarily reflecting human biases into models and equations. AI is also capable of making choices like humans, mirroring human reasoning. AI can help robots to efficiently repeat the same labor intensive procedures in factories and can analyze historic and present data efficiently through deep learning, natural language processing, and anomaly detection. Thus, AI covers a spectrum of augmented intelligence relating to prediction, autonomous intelligence relating to decision making, automated intelligence for labor robots, and assisted intelligence for data analysis.

Abstract: In the present scenario, it is quite aware that almost every field is moving into machine based automation right from fundamentals to master level systems. Among them, Machine Learning (ML) is one of the important tool which is most similar to Artificial Intelligence (AI) by allowing some well known data or past experience in order to improve automatically or estimate the behavior or status of the given data through various algorithms. Modeling a system or data through Machine Learning is important and advantageous as it helps in the development of later and newer versions. Today most of the information technology giants such as Facebook, Uber, Google maps made Machine learning as a critical part of their ongoing operations for the better view of users. In this paper, various available algorithms in ML is given briefly and out of all the existing different algorithms, Linear Regression algorithm is used to predict a new set of values by taking older data as reference. However, a detailed predicted model is discussed clearly by building a code with the help of Machine Learning and Deep Learning tool in MATLAB/ SIMULINK. Keywords: Machine Learning (ML), Linear Regression algorithm, Curve fitting, Root Mean Squared Error

BACKGROUND Happiness becomes a rising topic that we all care about recently. It can be described in various forms. For the text content, it is an interesting subject that we can do research on happiness by utilizing natural language processing (NLP) methods. OBJECTIVE As an abstract and complicated emotion, there is no common criterion to measure and describe happiness. Therefore, researchers are creating different models to study and measure happiness. METHODS In this paper, we present a deep-learning based model called Senti-BAS (BERT embedded Bi-LSTM with self-Attention mechanism along with the Sentiment computing). RESULTS Given a sentence that describes how a person felt happiness recently, the model can classify the happiness scenario in the sentence with two topics: was it controlled by the author (label ‘agency’), and was it involving other people (label ‘social’). Besides language models, we employ the label information through sentiment computing based on lexicon. CONCLUSIONS The model performs with a high accuracy on both ‘agency’ and ‘social’ labels, and we also make comparisons with several popular embedding models like Elmo, GPT. Depending on our work, we can study the happiness at a more fine-grained level.

The recent development in artificial intelligence is quite astounding in this decade. Especially, machine learning is one of the core subareas of AI. Also, ML field is an incessantly growing along with evolution and becomes a rise in its demand and importance. It transmogrified the way data is extracted, analyzed, and interpreted. Computers are trained to get in a self-training mode so that when new data is fed they can learn, grow, change, and develop themselves without explicit programming. It helps to make useful predictions that can guide better decisions in a real-life situation without human interference. Selection of ML tool is always a challenging task, since choosing an appropriate tool can end up saving time as well as making it faster and easier to provide any solution. This chapter provides a classification of various machine learning tools on the following aspects: for non-programmers, for model deployment, for Computer vision, natural language processing, and audio for reinforcement learning and data mining.

Recent years have witnessed the rising popularity of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and related fields such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML). Many online courses and resources are available even for those without a strong background in the field. Often the student is curious about a specific topic but does not quite know where to begin studying. To answer the question of “what should one learn first,”we apply an embedding-based method to learn prerequisite relations for course concepts in the domain of NLP. We introduce LectureBank, a dataset containing 1,352 English lecture files collected from university courses which are each classified according to an existing taxonomy as well as 208 manually-labeled prerequisite relation topics, which is publicly available 1. The dataset will be useful for educational purposes such as lecture preparation and organization as well as applications such as reading list generation. Additionally, we experiment with neural graph-based networks and non-neural classifiers to learn these prerequisite relations from our dataset.

AbstractThe diffusion of electronic health records collecting large amount of clinical, monitoring, and laboratory data produced by intensive care units (ICUs) is the natural terrain for the application of artificial intelligence (AI). AI has a broad definition, encompassing computer vision, natural language processing, and machine learning, with the latter being more commonly employed in the ICUs. Machine learning may be divided in supervised learning models (i.e., support vector machine [SVM] and random forest), unsupervised models (i.e., neural networks [NN]), and reinforcement learning. Supervised models require labeled data that is data mapped by human judgment against predefined categories. Unsupervised models, on the contrary, can be used to obtain reliable predictions even without labeled data. Machine learning models have been used in ICU to predict pathologies such as acute kidney injury, detect symptoms, including delirium, and propose therapeutic actions (vasopressors and fluids in sepsis). In the future, AI will be increasingly used in ICU, due to the increasing quality and quantity of available data. Accordingly, the ICU team will benefit from models with high accuracy that will be used for both research purposes and clinical practice. These models will be also the foundation of future decision support system (DSS), which will help the ICU team to visualize and analyze huge amounts of information. We plea for the creation of a standardization of a core group of data between different electronic health record systems, using a common dictionary for data labeling, which could greatly simplify sharing and merging of data from different centers.
