Ahead of CES, D-Link is bringing new features to its home security cameras. Today, the company announced that its devices can now detect people and breaking glass. The added capabilities are powered by AI that runs on the edge, and D-Link says it’s able to provide faster, more accurate results than it would with cloud-powered AI.
D-Link is also introducing two new cameras. The outdoor…
AI advances are going to underpin many of this year’s major camera developments, as increasingly powerful local processing combines with machine learning to enable on-device recognition of people and objects. Today, D-Link is introducing two new home security cameras that…

Dell is expanding its Latitude brand of business laptops by adding a 9000-series, starting with the new Latitude 9510. As with some other recent notebook launches, the company is highlighting a few superlatives here. Dell is calling the Latitude 9510 “world’s most intelligent 15-inch PC with built-in AI,” the “world’s smallest, lightest ultra-premium business 15-inch…
AI is no longer poised to change the world someday; it’s changing the world now. As we begin a new year and decade, VentureBeat turned to some of the keenest minds in AI to revisit progress made in 2019 and look ahead to how machine learning will mature in 2020. We spoke…
DeepMind, a UK-based artificial intelligence company purchased by Google in 2014, has turned its sights to the problem of breast cancer detection. Although breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women, detection is difficult due to high rates of false…
Google Health’s AI identifies breast cancer in mammogram imagery with fewer false positives
January 1, 2020
Google Health today shared an AI model trained with more than 90,000 mammogram x-rays that achieve better results than human radiology experts while recognizing more of false negatives, the kind of images that look normal but contain breast cancer. Initial findings were published in Nature.
The model achieves lower rates of false-positives (5.7% in U.S. and 1.2% in the U.K.). It also achieves…
6 AI features Microsoft added to Office in 2019

Researchers detail AI that de-hazes and colorizes underwater photos
December 30, 2019
Ever notice that underwater images tend to be be blurry and somewhat distorted? That’s because phenomena like light attenuation and back-scattering adversely affect visibility. To remedy this, researchers at Harbin Engineering University in China devised a machine learning algorithm that generates realistic water images, along with a second algorithm that trains on those images to both restore…
