HOURS VS MONTHS. "But the win-loss record was not the most impressive takeaway from the competitions. While teams of humans sweat their predictive algorithms for months leading up to competition, the Data Science Machine took somewhere between two and 12 hours to produce each of its entries." https://lnkd.in/dG_krDG View in LinkedIn

HIGH SCORES VS HUMANS. "In 2 of the 3 competitions we beat a majority of competitors, and in the third, we achieved 94 percent of the best competitor’s score. In the best case, with an ongoing competition, we beat 85.6 percent of the teams and achieved 95.7 percent of the top submissions score."

DATA SCIENCE MACHINE. "Max Kanter, a master’s student in computer science, and his advisor, Kalyan Veeramachaneni, a research scientist at MIT’s computer science and artificial intelligence laboratory – have created the Data Science Machine to find patterns and select which data points are relevant, without the problem-solving help of humans." https://lnkd.in/dG_krDG View in LinkedIn

DRUG DEVELOPMENT. "Cheaper faster drug development validated by the repositioning of drugs against neglected tropical diseases. Eve integrates and automates library-screening, hit-confirmation, and lead generation through cycles of quantitative structure activity relationship learning and testing. Using econometric modelling we demonstrate that the use of AI to select compounds economically outperforms standard drug screening." https://lnkd.in/dhx5ZNk View in LinkedIn

EVE DISCOVERS DRUG. "Ross King from the University of Manchester in England and his team say Eve found a chemical called TNP-470 effectively targets an enzyme that is key to the growth of Plasmodium vivax, one of the parasites that causes malaria. “I didn’t expect to actually find any useful compounds, I thought we’d just demonstrate the AI,” https://lnkd.in/d7vKW9D View in LinkedIn

EVOLVED UPTAKE. "The long-known existence of DNA uptake signal sequences and proteins that bind them, which jointly comprise a discrimination mechanism allowing bacteria to preferentially take up DNA from closely related organisms, is another piece of evidence in support of the view of transformation as an evolved route of gene transfer, apart from the nutritional value of DNA." https://lnkd.in/dSemZpD View in LinkedIn
