Finding AI’s low-hanging fruit
In some circles, the idea of going smaller with AI is catching on. Instead of a complete forklift upgrade across the entire business process, it’s better to do the easy stuff first.
A guide for developing mathematical models of large-scale complex dynamic networks
Karthik Raghavan Ramaswamy defended his Ph.D. with cum laude (honors) on developing novel data-driven modeling tools and techniques to improve insight into complex networked systems, such as hi-tech machines, power grids, biological networks and social networks.
Inscribes battles fraud with AI-powered detection and automation tools
Today every $1 in fraud loss costs U.S. financial services firms $4, according to LexisNexis Risk Solutions. Synthetic identity fraud, when fraudsters create identities not associated with real people, resulted in an estimated $20 billion in losses for U.
Crippling AI cyberattacks are inevitable: 4 ways companies can prepare

A weakly supervised machine learning model to extract features from microscopy images
Deep learning models have proved to be highly promising tools for analyzing large numbers of images. Over the past decade or so, they have thus been introduced in a variety of settings, including research laboratories.
Electronic skin: Physicist develops multisensory hybrid material
Recently developed 'smart skin' is very similar to human skin. It senses pressure, humidity and temperature simultaneously and produces electronic signals. More sensitive robots or more intelligent prostheses are thus conceivable.

Rain nabs $11M to build voice products
Rain, a marketing agency building custom voice experiences for brands, has raised $11 million in venture capital.
An algorithm trained to detect unhappiness on social networks
Researchers have developed an algorithm that can identify the basic needs of users from the text and images they share on social networks. The experts hope this tool will help psychologists to diagnose possible mental health problems. The study suggests that Spanish-speaking users are more likely to mention relationship problems when feeling depressed than English speakers.
