Stay informed and inspired in the world of AI with us.
According to WEKA's 2023 Global Trends in AI Report, 69% of organizations now have AI projects up and running, and 28% are using AI across their whole business. This shows a big move from just trying out AI to making it a key part of how companies operate and succeed. However, this is just the beginning as the major point is not to have only AI but to have it work to your benefit. Organizations have to address various challenges such as the collection of data, hiring the right skills, and fittin
Published: April 4, 2024Computer vision (CV) is a part of artificial intelligence that enables computers to analyze and understand visual information, both images and videos. It goes beyond plain “seeing” an image, but teaches computers to make decisions based on what they see. The AI-driven computer vision market is experiencing rapid growth, rising from $22 billion in 2023 to an expected $50 billion by 2030, with a 21.4% CAGR from 2024 to 2030. This technology imitates human vision but works faster using sophisticate
Published: March 8, 2024Technologies now revolutionize our experience in each sector of our lives: from creating Netflix recommendations to helping doctors with diagnostics. But what about the agriculture field and technologies? Precision agriculture is going to absolutely change the farmer's cultivation and harvest of their food with the help of different sophisticated technologies like AI and Machine Learning, GPS, GIS, UAVs, and Satellite Remote Sensing, collectively known as Precision Agriculture. Precision Agricul
Published: July 31, 2023So many of us have used different Facebook applications to see us aging, turned into rock stars, or applied festive make-up. Such waves of facial transformations are usually accompanied by warnings not to share images of your faces — otherwise, they will be processed and misused. But how does AI use faces in reality? Let’s discuss state-of-the-art applications for face detection and recognition. First, detection and recognition are different tasks. _Face detection_ is the crucial part of face re
Published: June 17, 2021At the beginning of April 2021, Neuralink’s new video featuring a monkey playing Pong with his mind hit the headlines. The company’s as-always-bold statements promise to give back the freedom of movement to people with disabilities. We decided to look beyond the hype and define what these brain-computer systems are capable of in reality. Let’s dive right into it. Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs)* or *Brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) capture a user’s brain activity and translate it into commands f
Published: May 20, 2021Among many things that define us as humans, there is our ability to remember things such as images in great detail, and sometimes after a single view. What is even more interesting, humans tend to remember and forget the same things, suggesting that there might be some general internal capability to encode and discard the same types of information. What makes certain images more memorable than others? Research suggests that pictures of people, salient actions and events are more memorable than n
Published: March 25, 2020Several years ago a friend of mine, who was a biologist, was talking about their weird experiments. They were shaving mice and if this was done this in a particular way, the mice remained bald for the rest of their short lives. Their team was dreaming to extrapolate this magic technique to humans and shake the waxing industry. It is unlikely that they have succeeded, but the gist of the story is that even serious science tries to serve beauticians if they get a chance. So, maybe, it is time for
Published: July 9, 2019Integration and interdisciplinarity are the cornerstones of modern science and industry. One of the examples of recent attempts to combine everything is the integration of computer vision and natural language processing (NLP). Both these fields are one of the most actively developing machine learning research areas. Yet, until recently, they have been treated as separate areas without many ways to benefit from each other. It is now, with the expansion of multimedia, researchers have started expl
Published: April 1, 2019Recently we have discussed the emerging concept of smart farming that makes agriculture more efficient and effective with the help of high-precision algorithms. The mechanism that drives it is Machine Learning — the scientific field that gives machines the ability to learn without being strictly programmed. It has emerged together with big data technologies and high-performance computing to create new opportunities to unravel, quantify, and understand data intensive processes in agricultural ope
Published: March 22, 2019We are a Ukraine-based company which means that our parents and grandparents lived in the era of infamous Soviet collective farms, where tractors were considered to be the ultimate technology. For them, a smart farm will sound like a fairy tale. So let it be, a fairy tale of a smart farm. First of all, what is a smart farm? Smart Farming is a concept of farming management using modern Information and Communication Technologies to increase the quantity and quality of products. Among the technolog
