Tzyy-Yuang Shiang AI in Sports

In the recent years, mobile technologies and Internet of Things (IoT) have become popular in many fields. Therefore, AI is widely applied in daily life by using various data collection approaches. Sport is a typical field applying AI to enhance performance and reduce injury. AI is impacting nearly every major sport event such as Olympic Games and professional sport like NBA and MLB. It is clear from the direction of this trend that coaches and athletes are demanding more AI technology to help them developing smarter training method. In this respect, AI in sport won’t be much different than its applications in other fields. Sensor-based system or video-based system are 2 applications of AI in sports that hold great promise for future growth. AI can make the most benefits out of those data collected in sport field or training site, if the algorithm is appropriate to determine the right key factors for athletes and coaches. It’s important to note that most of the applications of AI in sport are still in a pilot phase. In order to reach the need to go beyond just tracking data to converting it to meaningful insights that actually help athletes meet their performance goals. Combined AI technology and sport science domain knowledge is essence for future development of AI in sports.

Monica Lam

Monica Lam The World Wide Voice Web (WWvW)

We envision a world-wide voice web where everybody, including the illiterate speaking in rare languages, can easily use voice to ask for information, transact business, control IoTs, and automate compositional web-based tasks. At the core of WWvW is the technical challenge of natural language understanding. Our approach is to combine deep learning with formal programming languages. We use a neural contextual semantic parser to map dialogues to their executable formal semantics, expressed in our new ThingTalk programming language. The technology is demonstrated with an open-source privacy-protecting virtual assistant that can control hundreds of IoT devices and perform other popular skills. Our open-source Genie Toolkit embodying this methodology lets non AI experts create multilingual dialogue agents cost-effectively. We invite participation in building the wwVw through contributions to the Genie Toolkit and our open, crowdsourced voice skill repository, Thingpedia.

Cliff Young

Cliff Young Codesign from Semiconductors to AI

We are in a new computing era of domain-specific accelerators, where Google's TPU is a visible example. Building such accelerators calls for broader codesign, not just traditional codesign at the hardware/software interface, but vertically integrated codesign that reaches up to applications and down to materials science and device physics. I'll talk about the balance between science and engineering, about how codesign works in TPUs, and I'll pose some materials challenges looking forward.

Alex Ratner

Alex Ratner The Future of Data-Centric AI

Over the last half decade, there have been tremendous advances in new model architectures for machine learning that have led to more powerful and more accessible AI solutions. However, these models have become more data hungry than ever, and specifically rely on massive quantities of labeled training data to learn from. This massive change has led to a shift from model-centric AI, where the primary activity of an ML developer is iterating on models (e.g. feature engineering, architecture and algorithm design, etc.) to data-centric AI where labeling, slicing, augmenting, and managing the data at the center of AI is the key activity and leverage point. In this talk, I'll describe how data-centric AI must be programmatic to succeed, and will review our work on Snorkel Flow, a system for data-centric AI.

Ching-Yung Lin Advancing to Full-Brain Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence shows its great potential, e.g., vision, speech and language recognition and creation. However, AI of other brain functions, such as reasoning, feeling, strategy, and knowledge learning, is still in early-stage exploration. Since human brain is a graph of 100 billion nodes and 700 trillion edges, we have been building graph computing foundations for more than a decade to explore achieving full-brain functions. Our latest version is the Graphen Ardi AI platform. What can Full-Brain AI technologies be used? For instance, a US consulting firm published a white paper in May 2020 listing Google, Graphen, Intel and Nvidia as potential companies whose foundations will power the advance of future drug development. Graphen Medical has been utilizing the Ardi platform to design vaccines based on the molecular structure of virus proteins and antibodies. By considering nearly a million of possible mutations, now or future, and more than two million of the genetically sequenced worldwide SARS-Cov-2 viruses, we are able to predict functions of mutations and find ways to fight with them. Graphen’s AI Tools for Medicine (Atom) provides protein structure, functioning, and binding prediction, and Small Molecular and Biosimilar Drug Development. It therefore powers large-scale document reasoning for Whole Genome Analysis applications. Graphen Financial is impacting industry through Virtual Finance Agent, Bank Monitoring and Cybersecurity, Non-Performing Loan Prediction, Fraud Detection, Money-Laundering Detection, etc. Graphen’s AI platform shows outstanding performance at car fixing diagnostics and solutions, reaching high accuracy of fix suggestions with small training set. It can be also used for Renewable Energy Monitoring and Customer Service Agents for any industry. We can see exciting potential of such Full-Brain AI platform. Now is just the beginning.

Ying Zheng

Ying Zheng The Revolution of AI Using Synthetic Data and How It Powers the Future of Shopping

The world is vast, and can hardly be described by a small sample of real images and labels. Not to mention that acquiring high-quality labels for AI training is both time-consuming and expensive, and sometimes infeasible. With synthetic data, we can fully capture a small but relevant aspect of the world in perfect detail. In our case, we create large-scale store simulations and render high-quality images with pixel-perfect labels, and use them to successfully train our deep learning models. This enables AiFi to create superior AI platform to automate all stores of the future at massive scale.

Gau-Jun Tang Artificial Intelligence facilitates Precise Treatment for the Critically Ill Patients

Recent studies constantly demonstrate that the accuracy of deep learning algorithms in detecting disease from medical images is equivalent to health-care professionals if not over perform doctors. On the other hand, doctors taking care of the acute patient in the intensive care unit (ICU) facing greater challenges. Resuscitating a critically ill patient require the ability to evaluate all vital organ functions based on lab data, images, dynamic physiological data from bedside sensors to search for the etiology in a limited time. Take Covid-19 infection as an example, clinical presentations are affected by the variety of virus, virus load, as well as patients’ age and genetic makeup. All these variables will modulate the translation of protein (cytokines) that orchestrate the circulatory shock, acute lung, kidney and liver injure and coagulopathy. To cope with such a tremendous amount of high-speed, diverse, and unclear information, sometimes, it is beyond the human knowledge and ability to make a precise diagnosis and treatment. A precise and personized treatment requires meticulous calculation of the risk and benefit of each medication and dosage that incorporate the dysfunctional organ information and its interaction with the unique individual makeup. We desperately need an AI to continuously gather the massive and complex physiologic data to identify the distinct phenotype and unique biorhythm to formulate an optimal treatment plan. AI definitely will transform our medical practice, from Empirical to Precision Medicine, from population constructed evidenced based medicine to personalized treatments. Most of all, AI will become an important member of our team in ICU.

Xiao, Furen

Xiao, Furen Brain Tumor Auto-Contouring Solution for Radiosurgery

Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), a validated treatment for brain tumors, requires accurate tumor contouring. This manual segmentation process is time-consuming and prone to substantial inter-practitioner variability. Artificial intelligence (AI) with deep neural networks have increasingly been proposed for use in lesion detection and segmentation. We validated AI-assisted contouring in a clinical setting. Less-experienced clinicians gained prominent improvement on contouring accuracy but less benefit in reduction of working hours. By contrast, SRS specialists had a relatively minor advantage in accuracy, but greater timesaving with the aid of AI. Deep learning neural networks can be optimally utilized to improve accuracy and efficiency for the clinical workflow in brain tumor SRS.
