This blog article on Twitter saliency filter analysis introduces a few broad concepts to test machine vision tools. Described here is an end-to-end automated statistical analysis tool that is used to analyze the Twitter saliency filter. The aim is to accelerate the development of scalable, automated testing of machine vision algorithms for possible biases.

In this post, a simple Bayesian evaluation of Fort Detrick as the possible source of SARS-CoV2 is performed using public information.
1. Create 'main' branch $ git branch -m master main  A new branch called 'main' is created using the 'git branch [branch] [newbranch]' command. By passing the '-m ' argument to this git branch management command, the commit histories are copied to the new branch.
I often tell my students not to be misled by the name 'artificial intelligence'. There is nothing artificial about it. AI is made by humans, intended to behave by humans, and, ultimately, to impact humans' lives and human society. -- Fei-Fei Li, the inaugural Sequoia Professor in the Computer Science Department at Stanford University, and Co-Director of Stanford's Human-Centered AI Institute One of the common mistakes made by decision makers during the process of incorporating artificial intelligence into their enterprise, is attempting to view artificial intelligence as either good or bad. I want to explain here why this approach could be an indication of fundamental ignorance about artificial intelligence systems.
"... Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree If mankind perished utterly; And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn, Would scarcely know that we were gone." -- Sara Teasdale, There Will Come Soft Rains This year marks the 35th anniversary of Chernobyl disaster. On 26th April, 1986, at 1:23:45 AM local time (21:23:45 UTC), the 1000 ton concrete lid located above the reactor 4 fuel elements of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in the city of Pripyat, erstwhile Ukraine Soviet Socialist Republic (SSR), was blown open to the side by a massive steam explosion.
Bazel is the build and test automation tool from Google. It is touted as a fast, scalable, multi-language and extensible build system. Bazel is needed to create Tensorflow installers from the source-code. Here are the steps to install Bazel in Linux, from the source-code. The technique described here uses the bootstrap installation that does not require a pre-existing Bazel installation in the target system.
Working with large datasets in Python can often result in memory utilization issues. To reduce the memory utilization, the variables that are no longer immediately needed can be written to the disk. These variables can then be removed from the memory, thereby reducing the memory utilization. When these variables are needed at a later stage in the program, it can be easily restored from the disk. This strategy works for majority of the use cases, where the disk space is cheaper and more readily available than the main memory. In Python, restoring a variable from the disk can be efficiently handled using Pickle. Here is a concise Python3 code example for using Pickle to manage memory utilization, by using the strategy of restoring a variable from the disk.
“If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed, which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down. But I can find no such case.” -- Charles Darwin, The Origin of Species The SARS-CoV2 virus is the pathogen responsible for the COVID19 pandemic. Even though the SARS-CoV2 virus is a new pathogen, its origin follows the principles of evolution. Therefore, it is very likely that the SARS-CoV2 virus will have genomic similarities with other viruses. I became fascinated by the possible genomic similarities of the SARS-CoV2 virus with other viruses, especially with the Measles, Mumps Rubella (MMR) group of viruses. My focus on this particular group of viruses was due to the recent news that the MMR vaccine could be also effective against the SARS-CoV2.¹ My reasoning for the MMR vaccine to work against SARS-CoV2 being the shared genomic similarities between these viruses. These genomic similarities could have contributed to the shared immuno-physiological profiles, thus causing the MMR vaccine to be effective against SARS-CoV2.
