The fourth industrial revolution, according to the World Economic Forum, is about to begin. This will blend the physical and digital worlds in ways we couldn’t imagine a few years ago. Advances in machine learning and AI will help usher in these existing changes. Machine learning is transformative which opens up new scenarios that were simply impossible a few years ago. Profound gaining addresses a significant change in perspective from customary programming improvement models. Instead of having to write explicit top-down instructions for how software should behave, deep learning allows your software to generalize rules of operations. Deep learning models empower the engineers to configure, characterized by the information without the guidelines to compose. Deep learning models are conveyed at scale and creation applications—for example, car, gaming, medical services, and independent vehicles. Deep learning models employ artificial neural networks, which are computer architectures comprising multiple layers of interconnected components. By avoiding data transmission through these connected units, a neural network can learn how to approximate the computations required to transform inputs to outputs. Deep learning models require top-notch information to prepare a brain organization to carry out a particular errand. Contingent upon your expected applications, you might have to get thousands to millions of tests. This chapter takes you on a journey of AI from where it got originated. It does not just involve the evolution of computer science, but it involves several fields say biology, statistics, and probability. Let us start its span from biological neurons; way back in 1871, Joseph von Gerlach proposed the reticulum theory, which asserted that “the nervous system is a single continuous network rather than a network of numerous separate cells.” According to him, our human nervous system is a single system and not a network of discrete cells. Camillo Golgi was able to examine neural tissues in greater detail than ever before, thanks to a chemical reaction he discovered. He concluded that the human nervous system was composed of a single cell and reaffirmed his support for the reticular theory. In 1888, Santiago Ramon y Cajal used Golgi’s method to examine the nervous system and concluded that it is a collection of distinct cells rather than a single cell.

The purpose of the Reasoning Web Summer School is to disseminate recent advances on reasoning techniques and related issues that are of particular interest to Semantic Web and Linked Data applications. It is primarily intended for postgraduate students, postdocs, young researchers, and senior researchers wishing to deepen their knowledge. As in the previous years, lectures in the summer school were given by a distinguished group of expert lecturers. The broad theme of this year's summer school was “Reasoning in Probabilistic Models and Machine Learning” and it covered various aspects of ontological reasoning and related issues that are of particular interest to Semantic Web and Linked Data applications. The following eight lectures were presented during the school: Logic-Based Explainability in Machine Learning; Causal Explanations and Fairness in Data; Statistical Relational Extensions of Answer Set Programming; Vadalog: Its Extensions and Business Applications; Cross-Modal Knowledge Discovery, Inference, and Challenges; Reasoning with Tractable Probabilistic Circuits; From Statistical Relational to Neural Symbolic Artificial Intelligence; Building Intelligent Data Apps in Rel using Reasoning and Probabilistic Modelling.
The DEVO Lab HIT Radar is a support tool for the digital transformation of business. The Radar identifies emerging digital technologies through a methodology based on three questions: Which is, and could be, the impact of this technology on companies? How far is this technology from a “must adopt” decision? How quickly is this technology moving towards a full adoptability? This Fourth Edition of the General Report sums up the result of an intensive scouting performed in collaboration with the MIT Design Lab on the technology clusters Artificial Intelligence, Human Augmentation, Digital Infrastructure, IoT, Materials Printing, Advanced Robotics, grouping 16 technologies.

Person re-identification is the problem of associating observations of targets in different non-overlapping cameras. Most of the existing learning-based methods have resulted in improved performance on standard re-identification benchmarks, but at the cost of time-consuming and tediously labeled data. Motivated by this, learning person re-identification models with limited to no supervision has drawn a great deal of attention in recent years. In this book, we provide an overview of some of the literature in person re-identification, and then move on to focus on some specific problems in the context of person re-identification with limited supervision in multi-camera environments. We expect this to lead to interesting problems for researchers to consider in the future, beyond the conventional fully supervised setup that has been the framework for a lot of work in person re-identification. Chapter 1 starts with an overview of the problems in person re-identification and the major research directions. We provide an overview of the prior works that align most closely with the limited supervision theme of this book. Chapter 2 demonstrates how global camera network constraints in the form of consistency can be utilized for improving the accuracy of camera pair-wise person re-identification models and also selecting a minimal subset of image pairs for labeling without compromising accuracy. Chapter 3 presents two methods that hold the potential for developing highly scalable systems for video person re-identification with limited supervision. In the one-shot setting where only one tracklet per identity is labeled, the objective is to utilize this small labeled set along with a larger unlabeled set of tracklets to obtain a re-identification model. Another setting is completely unsupervised without requiring any identity labels. The temporal consistency in the videos allows us to infer about matching objects across the cameras with higher confidence, even with limited to no supervision. Chapter 4 investigates person re-identification in dynamic camera networks. Specifically, we consider a novel problem that has received very little attention in the community but is critically important for many applications where a new camera is added to an existing group observing a set of targets. We propose two possible solutions for on-boarding new camera(s) dynamically to an existing network using transfer learning with limited additional supervision. Finally, Chapter 5 concludes the book by highlighting the major directions for future research.
