Being Polite Can Be Essential to Getting a Loan

How can someone be persuaded to loan money to a random stranger on the internet? Does the requestor need to be polite or explain the impact the loan would have? Or perhaps they should demonstrate their credibility or use facts to help others understand their need. Does one of these strategies lead to success more… Continue reading Being Polite Can Be Essential to Getting a Loan

New Algorithm Follows Human Intuition to Make Visual Captioning More Grounded

Annotating and labeling datasets for machine learning problems is an expensive and time-consuming process for computer vision and natural language scientists. However, a new deep learning approach is being used to decode, localize, and reconstruct image and video captions in seconds, making the machine-generated captions more reliable and trustworthy. To solve this problem, researchers at… Continue reading New Algorithm Follows Human Intuition to Make Visual Captioning More Grounded
