In Reinforcement Learning algorithms, the common goal is to train an agent. This agent learns to get a policy that determines actions for an environment to maximize the reward obtained. DQN and DDPG are such algorithms, and quite similar ones as DDPG extends from DQN. Both use temporal difference and experience replay to learn and update the policy.

Working with data can always be a tedious task but with it is also a crucial one. In the process of that theres collecting the data, processing it and then analysing it for your business purposes. For machine learning as well, you should have good understanding of the data to be able to make good models.

Celonis brings forward a solution to better understand your business through data. Their system allows you to bring together your data, collect new data and bring them into analysis for making better decisions. Come to the even and learn more about what they do.

Meet the speakers for Applying Art in AI event!

Anthony is a Machine Learning and Behavioural Neuroscience PhD candidate at University College London. His research involves animal pose extraction using state-of-the-art machine vision techniques which in turn is used to create complex behavioural analysis across different subjects and species. His research aims to revolutionise automated behavioural analytics and create widespread benefits in healthcare applications.
Anthony holds a BA in theoretical physics from Trinity College Dublin, an MSc in high performance computing from the University of Edinburgh and an MSc in machine learning from University College London and has worked on many industry projects in the machine learning domain.

George is a UK Space Agency PhD candidate at University College London researching biosignatures in the Martian atmosphere. The goal of his research is to determine whether methane, tentatively detected in the Martian atmosphere in 2003, is produced by life. He studied a Master’s in Space Science and Engineering from University College London and a Bachelor’s in Mathematics and Physics from the University of Warwick.

This Picasso painting had never been seen before. Until a neural network painted it. With help from a neural network, researchers reconstructed an image the artist created and painted over during his Blue Period.

Veronica Sulé, Founder of TIFY, is our speaker for the event on 6 February about Leading Edge Consumer Analytics.

Sulé has always had a keen interest in technology and computer programming, looking up to Bill Gates as her role model. Yet, the more she got involved with technology, the more she noticed the lack of diversity within the industry; especially when it comes to Artificial Intelligence.

Rather than yielding to the inevitable, she went on to get a first-class honors BSc in Computer Science and an MSc in Big Data from King’s College, London. Soon after, she founded TIFY and has been working on it since then. She initially bootstrapped the original beta herself, raised
enough funding to hire her own, diverse, team, and is now managing the company’s growth and developing new products for the market.

She is continuously trying to influence and change the landscape of Artificial Intelligence and has been previously shortlisted for the EY and The Tab’s Student Entrepreneur of the Year. She was also a member of The Next Web’s T500 for 2019, part of the King’s 20 Accelerator during
the 2018/19 cohort, and is now a Resident at Google for Startups.
