DeepMind’s AI Helps Untangle the Mathematics of Knots

(UK) Machine learning has discovered mathematical relationships that humans have overlooked for the first time. DeepMind researchers in London collaborated with mathematicians to solve two unrelated puzzles, one in knot theory and the other in the study of symmetry.

Microsoft Offers a Gallery of Windows ML Samples

(USA) Microsoft has built a Windows ML Samples Gallery of interactive projects to demonstrate Windows machine learning capability in both managed and native settings. Back in 2018, the firm announced the Windows ML platform, saying: "With the next major Windows 10 update, we will begin to offer the advancements that have been incorporated into our applications and services as part of the Windows 10 platform." Every developer who creates Windows 10 apps will be able to employ AI to create more powerful and engaging experiences. " The gallery is designed to be an interactive companion to the Windows Machine Learning Library API. It is available as a packaged Windows 11 desktop program and may be obtained through the Microsoft Store or its GitHub repository.

US Companies Hiring Robot Workers at an All-Time High

(USA) Robotics development has always sparked fears that robots would replace humans, but in the United States, robot orders have reached an all-time high as many businesses struggle to find qualified employees. According to the Association for Advancing Automation, North American factories and industrial concerns ordered a record 29,000 robots in the first nine months of 2021, a 37 percent increase over the previous year (A3). Fixed-function robots have become a regular element of industry production lines, assisting in the creation of everything from automobiles to food goods. Moreover, advancements in autonomous technology have fueled a worldwide robot boom, with extensive applications ranging from AI-enabled mechanical fryers to autonomous industrial plant inspection units.

The Internet of Things Wearables and Data in Animal Care Set New Horizons for Farming

(UK) The adoption of IoT in animal healthcare could help both farmers and pet owners. Veterinarians can treat animals more successfully using monitoring and machine learning algorithms. IoT has the potential to create a whole new world of magic in the healthcare industry, including medical and consumer wearables, data aggregation and analytics, and predictive systems that may assist whole nations in avoiding lifestyle-related sickness and other ailments. What's been a little-discussed issue is how IoT devices, along with data and AI, may benefit our four-legged pals. According to Statista, the veterinary pet industry in the United Kingdom was valued at 2.1 billion pounds in 2020. The value is not surprising given that 59 percent of families now own an animal, up from 41 percent the previous year before the pandemic forced more distant employment.

ML Aids Robots to Understand Human-Like Interactions in Their Environment 

(UK) A new machine-learning model has been created by MIT researchers. As a consequence, robots may comprehend the world's interactions in the same way that humans do. Many deep learning models have difficulty seeing the environment because they are unaware of the subtle interconnections between individual elements. Without this understanding, a robot designed to assist someone in the kitchen would struggle to execute directions like "pick up the spatula to the left of the stove and set it on top of the cutting board."
