tl;dr We feature 5 of the top machine learning code repositories on Github from Singapore. The Top 5 is made up of popular implementations of state-of-the-art Computer Vision (CV) and Natural Language Processing (NLP) models and even a high-frequency trading project. The ranking is decided based on the total stars (stargazer count) of the repositories. 5. PyTorch Implementation of EfficientDet Architecture of EfficientDet including a weighted bi-directional feature pyramid network (BiFPN)....

tl;dr NeurIPS is the largest and argubably the most prestigious machine learning research conference internationally. We look at the 44 accepted publications from singapore-based authors in this 2020 edition of the conference, which is happening live this week (6 - 12 Dec 2020). What is NeurIPS? NeurIPS is the Conference and Workshop on Neural Information Processing Systems (abbreviated as NeurIPS and formerly NIPS). It is the largest conference in Artificial Intelligence with a specific focus on machine learning and neuroscience....

tl;dr AlphaFold2, an AI program developed by DeepMind, completely blew away the competition in a protein-structure prediction competition, CASP, so much so, the co-founder of the competition has commented that “in some sense” the 50-year old problem, is solved. 1. What is protein folding? A protein’s function is determined by its structure, its 3D shape. The process, protein folding, is how a protein chain acquires this 3D shape and structure....
