Simplex optimization is one of the simplest algorithms available to train a neural network. Understanding how simplex optimization works, and how it compares to the more commonly used back-propagation ...

Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research details the "Hello World" of image classification: a convolutional neural network (CNN) applied to the MNIST digits dataset. The "Hello World" of image ...

Engineers have uncovered an unexpected pattern in how neural networks -- the systems leading today's AI revolution -- learn, suggesting an answer to one of the most important unanswered questions in ...

Artificial intelligence is everywhere. Once the domain of science fiction, it’s used in everything from virtual assistants, to facial recognition systems, to self-driving cars. But how, exactly, does ...

Real data can be hard to get, so researchers are turning to synthetic data to train their artificial intelligence systems. On a sunny day in late 1987, a Chevy van drove down a curvy wooded path on ...
