  • Embedding Projector gives developers three different ways of enabling 3D and 2D views of a data set.
  • The tools allows developers to explore data for the most influential data elements and make sure than an embedding preserves the original meaning of the data, according to Google.
  • The tool allows developers to navigate through 3D and 2D views of their data to see how well their machine learning algorithms are doing at interpreting it.
  • Google has open sourced its Embedding Projector, a web application that gives developers a way to visualize data that’s being used to train their machine learning systems.
  • Google’s Embedding Projector web applications will give developers a way to visualize how well their machine learning systems are interpreting data.

Google’s Embedding Projector tool will give developers a way to visualize how effectively their machine leaning systems are using data.

Theresa May to fight 2020 election on plans to take Britain out of European Convention on Human Rights after Brexit is completed

  • “Now more than ever our rights, enshrined in British law under the Human Rights Act, must be protected and upheld.
  • Mr Cameron’s government had pledged to replace the Human Rights Act, which has led to UK authorities being unable to deport some criminals and suspected terrorists, with a British Bill of Rights.
  • M rs May’s allies have previously warned that a British Bill of Rights would be pointless if the UK is still signed up to the ECHR.

AI Llistens to Your Engine and Tells You if You’re Running into Problems

#AI system listens to your engine and tells you if you’re running into problems

  • “I was on a train about three years ago, going back to my hotel after a business meeting,” 3DSignals CEO Amnon Shenfeld told Digital Trends.
  • I had the thought that maybe if there was a train mechanic or engineer sitting on the train, they could tell us if the noise was normal and, if not, where it was coming from and whether it could be safely ignored.”
  • Shenfeld said his company never set out to create its own hardware, but had to in order to carry out its mission statement.
  • It was the same week that a train had overturned in Spain, injuring a lot of people.
