The imgclass tool lets you take a folder full of images, and teach a classifier that you can use to automatically classify future images. It works by creating a model and posting 80% of your example images toClassificationbox, which then learns what various classes of images look like, and what their shared characteristics are. The remaining images...

One of the reasons why text-based forms of communication are popular is their searchability; it’s easy to use search tools to comb through written words and find specific keywords and phrases. However, when it comes to spoken words, this kind of automated searching was impossible—until now. A new app launched in February makes it easy...

Researchers have devised a deep-learning algorithm that uses AI prediction techniques to forecast cardiovascular risk based on scans of patients’ retinas. A team of researchers from Google, Verily Life Sciences and the Stanford School of Medicine trained their deep-learning algorithm using data from 284,335 patients. The algorithms were able to predict cardiovascular (CV) issues with...
