Apple releases first artificial intelligence report: new image recognition
|
Apple has finally stopped hiding and released its first artificial intelligence research report. Industry insiders say this will be of great benefit to Apple in promoting its own artificial intelligence applications in the future. Apple said earlier this month that it would release its own artificial intelligence research report. In less than a month, Apple fulfilled its promise. Recently, Apple released its first academic paper on artificial intelligence. The report describes a new technology, how to train an algorithm's image recognition capabilities through computer-generated images rather than real images. In the report, Apple said that in machine learning research, using synthetic images (such as from a video game) to train neural networks is more effective than using real images. Because synthetic image data has been labeled and annotated, while real image data requires someone to spend a lot of effort to label everything the computer sees, such as a tree, a dog or a bicycle. Of course, there are also certain disadvantages to using synthetic images, which causes an algorithm to understand something different from the scene in the real world. Apple said in the report: "Sometimes, the synthetic image data is not realistic enough, resulting in the neural network only understanding the details presented in the synthetic image, but not the real image." To solve this problem and improve the training effect of synthetic image data, Apple researchers introduced a "simulation + unsupervised" learning method to improve the realism of simulated images. Apple researchers used a modified new machine learning technology called "generative adversarial network" (GAN) to let two neural networks compete with each other to generate more realistic images. The first author of this report is Apple researcher Ashish Shrivastava, who has a Ph.D. in computer vision from the University of Maryland, College Park. Industry insiders said that for Apple, the disclosure of its first artificial intelligence research report is also a big step forward. For many years, Apple has been tight-lipped about its research in the field of artificial intelligence, which has been criticized by the artificial intelligence research community. At the same time, this has also affected Apple's recruitment of artificial intelligence talents. In addition, the disclosure of its own artificial intelligence research this time will also help popularize its own artificial intelligence software in the future. Today, artificial intelligence software is being applied to almost all applications, such as the camera function of the iPhone 7, and various Internet services. As a winner of Toutiao's Qingyun Plan and Baijiahao's Bai+ Plan, the 2019 Baidu Digital Author of the Year, the Baijiahao's Most Popular Author in the Technology Field, the 2019 Sogou Technology and Culture Author, and the 2021 Baijiahao Quarterly Influential Creator, he has won many awards, including the 2013 Sohu Best Industry Media Person, the 2015 China New Media Entrepreneurship Competition Beijing Third Place, the 2015 Guangmang Experience Award, the 2015 China New Media Entrepreneurship Competition Finals Third Place, and the 2018 Baidu Dynamic Annual Powerful Celebrity. |
