Relational, Object-Centric Agents for Completing Simulated Household Tasks with Wilka Carvalho - #402

Relational, Object-Centric Agents for Completing Simulated Household Tasks with Wilka Carvalho - #402

Today we’re joined by Wilka Carvalho, a PhD student at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. In our conversation, we focus on his paper ‘ROMA: A Relational, Object-Model Learning Agent for Sample-Efficient Reinforcement Learning.’ In the paper, Wilka explores the challenge of object interaction tasks, focusing on every day, in-home functions. We discuss how he’s addressing the challenge of ‘object-interaction’ tasks, the biggest obstacles he’s run into along the way.

Machine Learning in Cybersecurity with Evan Wright - TWiML Talk #16

Machine Learning in Cybersecurity with Evan Wright - TWiML Talk #16

This week my guest is Evan Wright, principal data scientist at cybersecurity startup Anomali. In my interview with Evan, he and I discussed about a number of topics surrounding the use of machine learning in cybersecurity. If Evan’s name sounds familiar, it’s because Evan was the winner of the O’Reilly Strata+Hadoop World ticket giveaway earlier this month. We met up at the conference last week and took advantage of the opportunity to record this show. Our conversation covers, among other topics, the three big problems in cybersecurity that ML can help out with, the challenges of acquiring ground truth in cybersecurity and some ways to accomplish it, and the use of decision trees, generative adversarial networks, and other algorithms in the field. The show notes can be found at twimlai.com/talk/16.

Domain Knowledge in Machine Learning Models for Sustainability with Stefano Ermon - TWiML Talk #15

Domain Knowledge in Machine Learning Models for Sustainability with Stefano Ermon - TWiML Talk #15

My guest this week is Stefano Ermon, Assistant Professor of Computer Science at Stanford University, and Fellow at Stanford’s Woods Institute for the Environment. Stefano and I met at the Re-Work Deep Learning Summit earlier this year, where he gave a presentation on Machine Learning for Sustainability. Stefano and I spoke about a wide range of topics, including the relationship between fundamental and applied machine learning research, incorporating domain knowledge in machine learning models, dimensionality reduction, and his interest in applying ML & AI to addressing sustainability issues such as poverty, food security and the environment.

Understanding Deep Neural Nets with Dr. James McCaffrey - TWiML Talk #13

Understanding Deep Neural Nets with Dr. James McCaffrey - TWiML Talk #13

My guest this week is Dr. James McCaffrey, research engineer at Microsoft Research. James and I cover a ton of ground in this conversation, including recurrent neural nets (RNNs), convolutional neural nets (CNNs), long short term memory (LSTM) networks, residual networks (ResNets), generative adversarial networks (GANs), and more. We also discuss neural network architecture and promising alternative approaches such as symbolic computation and particle swarm optimization. The show notes can be found at twimlai.com/talk/13.

Brendan Frey - Reprogramming the Human Genome with AI - TWiML Talk #12

Brendan Frey - Reprogramming the Human Genome with AI - TWiML Talk #12

My guest this week is Brendan Frey, Professor of Engineering and Medicine at the University of Toronto and Co-Founder and CEO of the startup Deep Genomics. Brendan and I met at the Re-Work Deep Learning Summit in San Francisco last month, where he delivered a great presentation called “Reprogramming the Human Genome: Why AI is Needed.” In this podcast we discuss the application of AI to healthcare. In particular, we dig into how Brendan’s research lab and company are applying machine learning and deep learning to treating and preventing human genetic disorders.

Hilary Mason - Building AI Products - TWiML Talk #11

Hilary Mason - Building AI Products - TWiML Talk #11

My guest this time is Hilary Mason. Hilary was one of the first “famous” data scientists. I remember hearing her speak back in 2011 at the Strange Loop conference in St. Louis. At the time she was Chief Scientist for bit.ly. Nowadays she’s running Fast Forward Labs, which helps organizations accelerate their data science and machine intelligence capabilities through a variety of research and consulting offerings. Hilary presented at the O'Reilly AI conference on “practical AI product development” and she shares a lot of wisdom on that topic in our discussion. The show notes can be found at twimlai.com/talk/11.
