Texture cues on 3D objects are key to compelling visual representations, with the possibility to create high visual fidelity with inherent spatial consistency across different views. Since the availability of textured 3D shapes remains very limited, learning a 3D-supervised data-driven method that predicts a texture based on the 3D input is very challenging. We thus …

IBM Planning Analytics, or TM1 as it used to be known, has always been a powerful upgrade from spreadsheets for all kinds of planning and reporting use cases, including financial planning and analysis (FP&A), sales & operations planning (S&OP), and many aspects of supply chain planning (SCP). As far back as the 1990s and early …

Digital is the new normal, and there’s no going back. Every year, consumers visit, on average, 191 websites or services requiring a user name and password, and the digital footprint is expected to grow exponentially. So much exposure naturally brings added risks like account takeover (ATO). Each year, bad actors compromise billions of accounts through …
Content moderation is the process of screening and monitoring user-generated content online. To provide a safe environment for both users and brands, platforms must moderate content to ensure that it falls within preestablished guidelines of acceptable behavior that are specific to the platform and its audience. When a platform moderates content, acceptable user-generated content (UGC) …
Face-off Probability is the National Hockey League’s (NHL) first advanced statistic using machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence. It uses real-time Player and Puck Tracking (PPT) data to show viewers which player is likely to win a face-off before the puck is dropped, and provides broadcasters and viewers the opportunity to dive deeper into the …
Thanks to earbuds, people can take calls anywhere, while doing anything. The problem: those on the other end of the call can hear all the background noise, too, whether it’s the roommate’s vacuum cleaner or neighboring conversations at a café. Now, work by a trio of graduate students at the University of Washington, who spent …

Julien Salinas wears many hats. He’s an entrepreneur, software developer and, until lately, a volunteer fireman in his mountain village an hour’s drive from Grenoble, a tech hub in southeast France. He’s nurturing a two-year old startup, NLP Cloud, that’s already profitable, employs about a dozen people and serves customers around the globe. It’s one …

It is well known that Artificial Intelligence (AI) has progressed, moving past the era of experimentation. Today, AI presents an enormous opportunity to turn data into insights and actions, to amplify human capabilities, decrease risk and increase ROI by achieving break through innovations. While the promise of AI isn’t guaranteed and doesn’t always come easy, …
Posted by Fitsum Reda and Janne Kontkanen, Google Research Frame interpolation is the process of synthesizing in-between images from a given set of images. The technique is often used for temporal up-sampling to increase the refresh rate of videos or to create slow motion effects. Nowadays, with digital cameras and smartphones, we often take several …
Near-real-time delivery of data and insights enable businesses to rapidly respond to their customers’ needs. Real-time data can come from a variety of sources, including social media, IoT devices, infrastructure monitoring, call center monitoring, and more. Due to the breadth and depth of data being ingested from multiple sources, businesses look for solutions to protect …
