artificial intelligence

The authors of this paper propose a novel work flow for the problem of building intelligent data analytics in heavy-oil fields.

Machine learning (ML) finds patterns in data. "AI bias" means that it might find the wrong patterns. Meanwhile, the mechanics of ML might make this hard to spot.

Rapid advances in deep learning continue to demonstrate the significance of end-to-end training with no a priori knowledge. However, when models need to do forward prediction, most AI researchers agree that incorporating prior knowledge with end-to-end training can introduce better inductive bias. 

Total plans to start a digital factory to tap artificial intelligence in a bid to save hundreds of millions of dollars on exploration and production projects, according to an executive.

New funding for a chatbot technology, or smart assistant, represents the latest development in the Norwegian operator’s drive toward digitalization.

AGI stands for artificial general intelligence, a hypothetical computer program that can perform intellectual tasks as well as, or better than, a human. AGI will make today’s most advanced AIs look like pocket calculators.

Dubbed the technology of the decade, AI has been the catchphrase on every futurist’s tongue. From customer support chatbots to smart assistants, AI has begun to transform numerous industry verticals.

While both are raw resources, data is reusable. A CERAWeek panel said infrastructure and cultural change are needed to drive the transformative value of data.

Neural networks can be as unpredictable as they are powerful. Now mathematicians are beginning to reveal how a neural network’s form will influence its function.

A study of 25 years of artificial-intelligence research suggests the era of deep learning may come to an end.
