Because machine-learning models can give false predictions, researchers often equip them with the ability to tell a user how confident they are about a certain decision. This is especially important in high-stake settings, such as when models are used to help identify disease in medical images or filter job applications.

Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a type of machine learning. It trains an agent to make decisions by interacting with an environment. This article covers the basic concepts of RL. These include states, actions, rewards, policies, and the Markov Decision Process (MDP). By the end, you will understand how RL works. You will also learn how …

Engineers have developed a new soft, flexible device that makes robots move by expanding and contracting — just like a human muscle. To demonstrate their new device, called an actuator, the researchers used it to create a cylindrical, worm-like soft robot and an artificial bicep. In experiments, the cylindrical soft robot navigated the tight, hairpin …

We propose utilizing n-best reranking to enhance Sequence-Level Knowledge Distillation (Kim and Rush, 2016) where we extract pseudo-labels for student model’s training data from top n-best hypotheses and leverage a diverse set of models with different inductive biases, objective functions or architectures, including some publicly-available large language models, to pick the highest-quality hypotheses as labels. …

RAG is an important technique, but there are many questions it simply can’t answer. How LLamaIndex is helping provide those answers.Read More
In a livestreamed update on X, Elon Musk and Neuralink executives gave an update on the company’s next study participant—and its next-generation brain implant.
While the sports industry continually improves spectators’ viewing experience at home, some problems remain unsolved. One such issue for soccer fans is cameramen accidentally appearing in each other’s shots on live broadcasts. These occurrences not only detract from critical game moments but potentially lead to revenue losses for broadcasters due to viewer dissatisfaction.
