ImageNet gets a Privacy Overhaul, what about other datasets?

Last week, ImageNet, one of the world’s most influential AI datasets, decided to blur the faces of people in its database in an effort to increase user privacy. In another part of the world, researchers at the University Erlangen-Nurnberg in Germany discovered that the X-ray datasets used by AI classification systems were not as anonymous…

While it has been established that pre-training large natural language models like Google’s BERT or XLNet, can bring immense advantages in NLP tasks, these are usually trained on a general collection of texts like websites, documents, books and news. On the other hand, experts believe that pre-training models on domain-specific knowledge can provide substantial gains…

A human genome contains genetic information of an organism as DNA sequences in the form of 23 chromosomes. And a single DNA molecule consists of two strands which are connected by four different bases (A, T, C, G). The human genome consists of around 3 billion of these base pairs. So, if a base pair…
