The mind’s eye of a neural network system

A new tool, based on topology, makes finding the areas where neural networks are confused as simple as spotting mountaintops from an airplane. The ability to spot and address those areas of confusion should enable more confident application of neural networks in high-stakes decision scenarios or image prediction tasks like healthcare and research.

A peek into the future of visual data interpretation: A framework for assessing generative AI’s efficacy

In the last year, large language models (LLMs) have come into prominence for boasting a suite of ever-expanding capabilities including text generation, image production, and, more recently, highly descriptive image analysis. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into image analysis represents a significant shift in how people understand and interact with visual data, a task …

Realistic talking faces created from only an audio clip and a person’s photo

A team of researchers has developed a computer program that creates realistic videos that reflect the facial expressions and head movements of the person speaking, only requiring an audio clip and a face photo.   DIverse yet Realistic Facial Animations, or DIRFA, is an artificial intelligence-based program that takes audio and a photo and produces …

Deep Mind’s Student of Games AI system can beat humans at a variety of games

A team of AI researchers from EquiLibre Technologies, Sony AI, Amii and Midjourney, working with Google’s DeepMind project, has developed an AI system called Student of Games (SoG) that is capable of both beating humans at a variety of games and learning to play new ones. In their paper published in the journal Science Advances, …
