Accurate neural network computer vision without the 'black box'
E-Mail IMAGE: New research offers clues to what goes on inside the minds of machines as they learn to see. A method developed by Cynthia Rudin's lab reveals how much a neural... view more Credit: Courtesy of Zhi Chen, Duke University DURHAM, N.C. -- The artificial intelligence behind self-driving cars, medical image analysis and other computer vision applications relies on what's called deep neural networks. Loosely modeled on the brain, these consist of layers of interconnected "neurons" -- mathematical functions that send and receive information -- that "fire" in response to fe...
