rfirth Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 His most recent research with three other colleagues focuses on Project Adam and its object classification, culling a massive dataset of 14 million images from the Web and sites such as Flickr, made up of more than 22,000 categories drawn from user-generated tags. Using 30 times fewer machines than other systems, that data was used to train a neural network made up of more than two billion connections. This scalable infrastructure is twice more accurate in its object recognition and 50 times faster than other systems. It answered in the affirmative this burning research question: can increasing the size of a deep neural net help improve accuracy? A neural network with more than 2 billion connections? That's insane. Amazing. Really, truly amazing. Not the fact that it has 2 billion connections (that's trivially easy), but that there were actually able train a network with 2 billion connections. It would take nearly 8 GB of space to store all the weights. For comparison, the human brain has 100 billion neurons... although connections are analogous to synapses, and there are 1,000 trillion of those.

Ian S. Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 The impression thing was worthless and pretty stupid. Why? You don't like Microsoft having personality in their products? Why should Google have fun with projects like the April Fools, I'm feeling lucky, and other things while Microsoft shouldn't. It's not worthless when you have time to spare.
