Hi all,

The first Data Science Nigeria for the year has kicked off. Below is a link to the competition hosted on Kaggle. Do well to check it out if you're interested. You can learn a lot more about Machine Learning through participation in the competition.

No, I did not create the dataset. It was probably done by Data Science Nigeria probably in collaboration with Telecom Companies. I read their tweet about the competition and decided to also share the information here.

Bro i currently have been reading about the level of AI used in sex dolls that are currently trending... I haven't been able to get much information about it though.... Buh it looks a bit complex..
Anyone with more insight on this
Cc : 4kings
Raymod170
Well i have a little insight, but only on the communication and possibly sensing(if it's incorporated).
For communication that's NLP, this should not be big of a deal.

I don't know if the sex dolls built have some form of environment sensing, but i have freelanced a project, where i had to work on Xethru chip which has a python and matlab binding and can be used for respiratory sensing and anlayis, and some other cool stuff.(My main focus for the guy was on respiration) So if this is also being used in the sex doll, the sex doll could track the partner's breathing and other sensing stuff to analyse for weakness, eagerness, location, bad health condition(possibly) and whatever else that can be analysed.

As for the body, i'm really blank. Below is a youtube video showing how the sex dolls are made in the factory but i don't know what the materials are made of.

Players Age

The colorful display shows range of players on FIFA18 as it will enable you know the range at which players age fall in and show you which player has the highest or lowest numbers in terms of age

A total of 1,515 players are around 25 years old which is the highest number on the chart while 18 players fall in the age gap of 16 years

I have Some Question about Artificial Intelligence and machine Learning like
1) It helps to securing the data from all types of malware?
2) Speed up the events by ensuring complete safety.
Re: Artificial Intelligence And Machine Learning Group by SoftEng: 4:36pm On Jan 24, 2018
Hi all,

Here's another competition that might be of interest to you.

Microsoft Cloud AI Research Challenge.
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/academic-program/microsoft-cloud-ai-research-challenge/

The Challenge
Use Microsoft AI services to develop (breakthrough) applications or embed their AI (cognitive) services into your application.
Prize: 25,000 USD Grand Prize

My take on the challenge
In simple terms, Microsoft wants to encourage more developers to use their AI platform and also discover new use cases of AI from these challenge. I believe it is a fun and interesting challenge. For anyone who will be interested, you can think of wide variety of application areas, but if you can narrow it down to application areas that solves some of our local problems that would be a good thing.

Thanks.

I'll put up links/descriptions of research based challenges/competitions soon.

Hi,

For your first question, I'll say it depends on how you use Machine Learning. I can't explicitly say it helps secure your data from all types of malware. That's just false.

Your second question is not clear, so I can't comment about it.

Lastly, I will advise you do some quick google search about your questions. You might find links that answers your questions.

Thanks.

been trying my hands on ML using R like collaborative filtering but I'll like to know how this can be applied on web application in real time. Will I have to keep making sever request anytime a product is to be recommend to a user? What if the data keep getting bigger? What is the right approach to embed into web applications.

No. The model l built performed below my expectations, around 84% accuracy. Those guys on top of the Leaders board, I respect them because I don't know the 'magic' they are applying on their algorithm. However, I hope to submit more entries this week.

I don't think this job is genuine. I should have commented about it earlier. I'm sorry.

This advert is old. I think it earlier appeared in March 2017 (see link below). Apart from being old it may also be fake. A company willing to pay 300-400k for a fresh graduate coder (which is a bit high) should at least have a professional email for application or an application system.

Thanks for sharing 4kings. It shows you have good interest at heart for the group member here.

To all,
Moving ahead, try to validate job adverts before sharing.

Thanks.

Following up on earlier post with regards to job adverts,

Microsoft is currently advertising for their 2018 AI Residency program (see link below). It is similar to Google AI Residency and Facebook AI Research Residency programs that was earlier posted.

The Residency program is open to BSc, MSc and PhD graduates. It is a good opportunity to learn more about AI Research and Development activites.

Program Duration: 1 Year

Application Deadline
"We encourage completed applications to be submitted by February 28, 2018, but will continue to review applications until March 30, 2018."
