Academia uses methods and techniques that are cutting edge and constantly evolving, while the underlying cultures and working practices remain rooted in the 19th-century model of the independent scientist. Standardization in processes and data standards-delivered via foundational and ongoing training-could ensure a common minimum standard, increase interoperability across the sector, and drive improvements in research quality. But change will require a coordinated approach that recognizes the systems nature of the challenge.The contribution of Black female scholars to our understanding of data and their limits of representation hint at a more empathetic vision for data science that we should all learn from.This opinion piece offers an insight on the origins of the debates around the question of whether and when we can reach artificial general intelligence in machine learning, and how science meets with spirituality when addressing this matter. It also offers an introduction to Obvious' new series of African masks Facets of AGI.Humanity faces a series of challenges over a range of timescales from minutes to centuries that are relevant to our sustainable development as a globally interconnected civilization. Our common survival at local-global levels depends on being able to understand the urgencies of exponential change across these timescales. The "Pandemic Lens" introduced by the COVID-19 pandemic gives us perspective to operate with informed short-term to long-term decision making for the benefit of all on Earth across generations.Recent advances in deep learning have greatly simplified the measurement of animal behavior and advanced our understanding of how animals and humans behave. The article previewed here provides readers with an excellent overview of the topic of motion capture with deep learning and will be of interest to the wider data science community.[This corrects the article DOI 10.1016/j.patter.2020.100089.].An essential task for computer vision-based assistive technologies is to help visually impaired people to recognize objects in constrained environments, for instance, recognizing food items in grocery stores. In this paper, we introduce a novel dataset with natural images of groceries-fruits, vegetables, and packaged products-where all images have been taken inside grocery stores to resemble a shopping scenario. Additionally, we download iconic images and text descriptions for each item that can be utilized for better representation learning of groceries. We select a multi-view generative model, which can combine the different item information into lower-dimensional representations. The experiments show that utilizing the additional information yields higher accuracies on classifying grocery items than only using the natural images. We observe that iconic images help to construct representations separated by visual differences of the items, while text descriptions enable the model to distinguish between visually similar items by different ingredients.The web provides access to millions of datasets that can have additional impact when used beyond their original context. We have little empirical insight into what makes a dataset more reusable than others and which of the existing guidelines and frameworks, if any, make a difference. In this paper, we explore potential reuse features through a literature review and present a case study on datasets on GitHub, a popular open platform for sharing code and data. We describe a corpus of more than 1.4 million data files, from over 65,000 repositories. Using GitHub's engagement metrics as proxies for dataset reuse, we relate them to reuse features from the literature and devise an initial model, using deep neural networks, to predict a dataset's reusability. Muramyl dipeptide price This demonstrates the practical gap between principles and actionable insights that allow data publishers and tools designers to implement functionalities that provably facilitate reuse.The complicated structure-property relationships of materials have recently been described using a methodology of data science that is recognized as the fourth paradigm in materials science. In network polymers or elastomers, the manner of connection of the polymer chains among the crosslinking points has a significant effect on the material properties. In this study, we quantitatively evaluate the structural heterogeneity of elastomers at the mesoscopic scale based on complex network, one of the methods used in data science, to describe the elastic properties. It was determined that a unified parameter with topological and spatial information universally describes some parameters related to the stresses. This approach enables us to uncover the role of individual crosslinking points for the stresses, even in complicated structures. Based on the data science, we anticipate that the structure-property relationships of heterogeneous materials can be interpretatively represented using this type of "white box" approach.We discuss the validation of machine learning models, which is standard practice in determining model efficacy and generalizability. We argue that internal validation approaches, such as cross-validation and bootstrap, cannot guarantee the quality of a machine learning model due to potentially biased training data and the complexity of the validation procedure itself. For better evaluating the generalization ability of a learned model, we suggest leveraging on external data sources from elsewhere as validation datasets, namely external validation. Due to the lack of research attractions on external validation, especially a well-structured and comprehensive study, we discuss the necessity for external validation and propose two extensions of the external validation approach that may help reveal the true domain-relevant model from a candidate set. Moreover, we also suggest a procedure to check whether a set of validation datasets is valid and introduce statistical reference points for detecting external data problems.Conventional single-spectrum computed tomography (CT) reconstructs a spectrally integrated attenuation image and reveals tissues morphology without any information about the elemental composition of the tissues. Dual-energy CT (DECT) acquires two spectrally distinct datasets and reconstructs energy-selective (virtual monoenergetic [VM]) and material-selective (material decomposition) images. However, DECT increases system complexity and radiation dose compared with single-spectrum CT. In this paper, a deep learning approach is presented to produce VM images from single-spectrum CT images. Specifically, a modified residual neural network (ResNet) model is developed to map single-spectrum CT images to VM images at pre-specified energy levels. This network is trained on clinical DECT data and shows excellent convergence behavior and image accuracy compared with VM images produced by DECT. The trained model produces high-quality approximations of VM images with a relative error of less than 2%. This method enables multi-material decomposition into three tissue classes, with accuracy comparable with DECT.
