Martin Trains AI Agents to Become Storytellers
By Yuan Yang In recent years, we have experienced the success of modern machine learning (ML) models. Many of them have led to unprecedented breakthroughs in a wide range of applications, such as AlphaGo beating a world champion human player or the introduction of autonomous vehicles. There has been a continuous effort, both from industry… Continue reading Working Towards Explainable and Data-efficient Machine Learning Models via Symbolic Reasoning
By Sarah Wiegreffe and Yuval Pinter Natural language processing (NLP) is the study of how computers learn to represent and make decisions about human communication in the form of written text. This encompasses many tasks, including automatically classifying documents, using machines to translate between languages, or designing algorithms for writing creative stories. Many state-of-the-art systems… Continue reading Explaining Machine Learning Models for Natural Language

By Allie McFadden, Communications Officer In an effort to expand services in machine learning, artificial intelligence (AI), and data science, Accenture will hold a Tech Symposium on Feb. 25 at the Machine Learning Center at Georgia Tech (ML@GT.) During the three-day event, guests will be treated to a tour of ML@GT’s new home in Coda… Continue reading Accenture to Bring Their Tech Symposium to the Machine Learning Center at Georgia Tech
By Jiachen Yang Over the years, human intelligence has evolved to work within a shared environment with other humans to do more than play Atari games or solve Rubik’s cubes alone in our rooms. The presence of other people demands our ability to handle a wide spectrum of complex interactions — we cooperate with colleagues… Continue reading Learning to Cooperate in Multi-Agent Environments
