When my friend pitched me the idea of auditioning for a game show to make some money, I thought she was kidding. I never expected that two weeks later, I'd be flying home from a game show victory in Los Angeles with a trophy and a check for $10,000.I used the prize money to pay for the first semester of graduate school, and later, I enrolled in medical school at 50 years old. It was the best decision I could've ever made.My childhood dream was to be a doctorI was always a gifted student. My peers labeled me as "the…

Healthcare And AI Sectors Continue To Lead, While Funding Settles In July 2024

stp2y0 CommentsRAG models
Venture funding reached over $23 billion in July 2024, slightly down month over month and up more than 20% year over year, based on an analysis of Crunchbase data. The largest funding in July went to 16-year-old Vancouver-based legal tech company Clio. NEA led the $900 million funding with participation from a host of growth-stage investors. The company reached $200 million in annual recurring revenue managing all processes from payments, client management and documentation for thousands of mid-sized law firms. This was a massive round for vertical SaaS, and the largest ever for a legal cloud technology company. Healthcare and…

Open Set Recognition for Random Forest

stp2y0 CommentsViral News
arXiv:2408.02684v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In many real-world classification or recognition tasks, it is often difficult to collect training examples that exhaust all possible classes due to, for example, incomplete knowledge during training or ever changing regimes. Therefore, samples from unknown/novel classes may be encountered in testing/deployment. In such scenarios, the classifiers should be able to i) perform classification on known classes, and at the same time, ii) identify samples from unknown classes. This is known as open-set recognition. Although random forest has been an extremely successful framework as a general-purpose classification (and regression) method, in practice, it usually operates…

Teenage Engineering is no stranger to weird gadgets that defy description. This is a company and, uh, . We all knew that. We also knew that the company would likely be releasing a follow-up to its . We couldn’t in a million years, however, have guessed that it would be a .That’s right. The sequel to the K.O. II is a sampler built entirely around sounds inspired by the middle ages. It’s all here, from Gregorian chants and lutes to drum sounds that recall Monty Python. The sampler also comes pre-loaded with tons of themed foley effects, like sword slashes,…

ConDL: Detector-Free Dense Image Matching

stp2y0 CommentsViral News
[Submitted on 5 Aug 2024] View a PDF of the paper titled ConDL: Detector-Free Dense Image Matching, by Monika Kwiatkowski and 2 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:In this work, we introduce a deep-learning framework designed for estimating dense image correspondences. Our fully convolutional model generates dense feature maps for images, where each pixel is associated with a descriptor that can be matched across multiple images. Unlike previous methods, our model is trained on synthetic data that includes significant distortions, such as perspective changes, illumination variations, shadows, and specular highlights. Utilizing contrastive learning, our feature maps achieve greater invariance…

On July 19, Jonathan Cardi and his family watched as the departures board at Raleigh-Durham International Airport in North Carolina, turned from green to a sea of red. “Oh my gosh, it was insane,” says Cardi. “Delayed, delayed, delayed, delayed.”Cardi, a law professor at Wake Forest University and a member of the American Law Institute, was due to fly with Delta Airlines to a conference in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. With thousands of other travelers, he spent the day lining up as staff kept telling people that flights “would be taking off any minute,” he recalls. But when it became clear…
