Facebook Open Sources ELF OpenGo

Inspired by DeepMind’s work, we kicked off an effort earlier this year to reproduce their recent AlphaGoZero results using FAIR’s Extensible, Lightweight Framework (ELF) for reinforcement learning research. The goal was to create an open source implementation of a system that would teach itself how to play Go at the level of a professional human player or better. By releasing our code and models we hoped to inspire others to think about new applications and research directions for this technology.

While simple, this thought experiment highlights some important aspects of human intelligence. For some tasks, we use a trial-and-error approach, and for others we use a planning approach. A similar phenomena seems to have emerged in reinforcement learning (RL).

Swift for TensorFlow provides a new programming model for TensorFlow – one that combines the performance of graphs with the flexibility and expressivity of Eager execution, while keeping a strong focus on improved usability at every level of the stack. In order to achieve our goals, we scope in the possibility of making (carefully considered) compiler and language enhancements, which enables us to provide a great user experience.

Known as In Codice Ratio, it uses a combination of artificial intelligence and optical-character-recognition (OCR) software to scour these neglected texts and make their transcripts available for the very first time. If successful, the technology could also open up untold numbers of other documents at historical archives around the world.
