A Matter of Perspective

The challenge presented is an age when some decisions are made by humans, some are made by AI, and some are made by a combination of AI and humans. For the person refused housing, a phone service, or employment, the experience is the same, but the ability to understand what has happened and obtain a remedy may be very different if the discrimination is attributable to or contributed by an AI system. If we are to preserve the policy intentions of our discrimination, equal opportunity, and human rights laws, we need to understand how discrimination arises in AI systems; how design in AI systems can mitigate such discrimination; and whether our existing laws are adequate to address discrimination in AI. This chapter endeavours to provide this understanding. In doing so, it focuses on narrow but advanced forms of artificial intelligence, such as natural language processing, facial recognition, and cognitive neural networks.

Human rights monitoring for people with disabilities is in urgent need for disability data that is shared and available for local and international disability stakeholders (e.g., advocacy groups). Our aim is to use a Wikibase for editing, integrating, storing structured disability related data and to develop a Natural Language Processing (NLP) enabled multilingual search engine to tap into the wikibase data. In this paper, we explain the project first phase.

In this chapter we discuss the core concept of Artificial Intelligence. We define the term of Artificial Intelligence and its interconnected terms such as Machine learning, deep learning, Neural Networks. We describe the concept with the perspective of its usage in the area of business. We further analyze various applications and case studies which can be achieved using Artificial Intelligence and its sub fields. In the area of business already numerous Artificial Intelligence applications are being utilized and will be expected to be utilized more in the future where machines will improve the Artificial Intelligence, Natural language processing, Machine learning abilities of humans in various zones.

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) were created for image classification tasks. Quickly, they were applied to other domains, including Natural Language Processing (NLP). Nowadays, the solutions based on artificial intelligence appear on mobile devices and in embedded systems, which places constraints on, among others, the memory and power consumption. Due to CNNs memory and computing requirements, to map them to hardware they need to be compressed.This paper presents the results of compression of the efficient CNNs for sentiment analysis. The main steps involve pruning and quantization. The process of mapping the compressed network to FPGA and the results of this implementation are described. The conducted simulations showed that 5-bit width is enough to ensure no drop in accuracy when compared to the floating point version of the network. Additionally, the memory footprint was significantly reduced (between 85% and 93% comparing to the original model).

BACKGROUND: The renewed advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is inducing profound changes in the classic categories of technology professions and is creating the need for new specific skills. OBJECTIVE: Identify the gaps in terms of skills between academic training on AI in French engineering and Business Schools, and the requirements of the labour market. METHOD: Extraction of AI training contents from the schools’ websites and scraping of a job advertisements’ website. Then, analysis based on a text mining approach with a Python code for Natural Language Processing. RESULTS: Categorization of occupations related to AI. Characterization of three classes of skills for the AI market: Technical, Soft and Interdisciplinary. Skills’ gaps concern some professional certifications and the mastery of specific tools, research abilities, and awareness of ethical and regulatory dimensions of AI. CONCLUSIONS: A deep analysis using algorithms for Natural Language Processing. Results that provide a better understanding of the AI capability components at the individual and the organizational levels. A study that can help shape educational programs to respond to the AI market requirements.

Deep neural networks are hegemonic approaches to many machine learning areas, including natural language processing (NLP). Thanks to the availability of large corpora collections and the capability of deep architectures to shape internal language mechanisms in self-supervised learning processes (also known as “pre-training”), versatile and performing models are released continuously for every new network design. These networks, somehow, learn a probability distribution of words and relations across the training collection used, inheriting the potential flaws, inconsistencies and biases contained in such a collection. As pre-trained models have been found to be very useful approaches to transfer learning, dealing with bias has become a relevant issue in this new scenario. We introduce bias in a formal way and explore how it has been treated in several networks, in terms of detection and correction. In addition, available resources are identified and a strategy to deal with bias in deep NLP is proposed.
