New aspects of AI: in-depth interpretation of vision and computing chip technology, and on-site experience of the coolest applications
Looking back on 2017, the field of artificial intelligence is booming. AlphaGo is still the king of topics. From the mysterious “Master” who swept all the human Go champions on the stage online at the beginning of the year, to the “Teacher A” who made Ke Jie SOB in Wuzhen, to the “Zero” who was born without any teachers, AlphaGo has gone through the transformation of “trilogy”. Pushing the frontiers of artificial intelligence technology to a new level.
In academia, more attention was paid to new ideas in 2017, with Hinton’s Capsule paper to subvert convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) finally coming out in late October. Vicarious, a start-up, has unveiled a visual generation model that is “300 times more efficient than deep learning.” The theory of artificial intelligence technology is constantly subverting itself.
In 2017, the epoch-making image recognition contest ImageNet bid farewell to the historical stage, and computer vision began to move from “recognition” to the peak of “understanding”. In MS COCO, the new arena of computer vision that emphasizes “understanding”, the Chinese team continues to be strong.
In 2017, AI technology was updated and AI applications blossomed. AI World will bring the following surprises:
ResNet interpretation of AlphaGo Zero core technology
On October 19, DeepMind introduced the greatest chess player in history, Zero, in a paper published by Nature. This version of AlphaGo, which does not rely at all on human data, is seen as a big step towards the long-held goal of AI research: to create algorithms that can outperform human capabilities in the most challenging areas without human input.
One of the core technologies of AlphaGo Zero, deep residual network ResNet, was jointly proposed by Chinese scientists he Kaiming and Sun Jian in 2015, and won five titles in ImageNet and MS COCO academic competitions in that year. An important breakthrough in ResNet is the implementation of 152 layers of network depth, which greatly improves the efficiency and effectiveness of mapping some very complex functions. The combination of ResNet’s powerful network enables AlphaGo Zero to quickly and accurately learn the probability of each piece and make judgments about the entire game.
As the guest speaker of AI World 2017, Sun Jian will introduce ResNet, the core technology of AlphaGo Zero, This extends to his latest work, SuffleNet (the Megvii research team led by Sun Jian has just won three awards in MS COCO, and this technology may well be the key). The title of his talk is visual Computing: From ResNet to ShuffleNet.
Computer vision: From ResNet to Super AI applications
Computer vision was one of the hottest and most talked about AI technologies in 2017, and one of the most successful ones to land. In the academic world, from CVPR in summer to ICCV in autumn, computer vision has witnessed the end of ImageNet, from visual perception to visual cognition, visual intelligence is also seeking a qualitative leap.
AI World 2017, computer vision master, Tencent Youtu Laboratory outstanding scientist Jia Jia ya, Alibaba Distinguished Engineer (VP), iDST Vice President Hua Xiansheng and Sun Jian will bring the most cutting-edge sharing of computer vision.
