Keys to Success for AI in Modeling and Simulation

In this special guest feature from Scientific Computing World, Robert Roe interviews Loren Dean from Mathworks on the use of AI in modeling and simulation. “If you just focus on AI algorithms, you generally don’t succeed. It is more than just developing your intelligent algorithms, and it’s more than just adding AI – you really need to look at it in the context of the broader system being built and how to intelligently improve it.”

Students Encouraged to Enter Math Modeling Challenge for Scholarships

Juniors and seniors throughout the United States seeking a transformative high school experience and the chance to win thousands of dollars in scholarships for college are invited to register for the MathWorks Math Modeling (M3) Challenge, the nation’s most prestigious high school math modeling competition. “In order to ensure a robust pipeline of students for future STEM careers, it is vital that we encourage students to deepen their interest in science, technology, engineering, and math. M3 Challenge has perfected the recipe for making math fun and accessible, while also encouraging students to hone their interpersonal skills and consider the possibility of a career in math and computation.”

Ai comes to MATLAB and Simulink with new 2019a release

Today MathWorks introduced Release 2019a of MATLAB and Simulink. The release contains new products and important enhancements for artificial intelligence (AI), signal processing, and static analysis, along with new capabilities and bug fixes across all product families. “One of the key challenges in moving AI from hype to production is that organizations are hiring AI ‘experts’ and trying to teach them engineering domain expertise. With R2019a, MathWorks enables engineers to quickly and effectively extend their AI skills, whether it’s to develop controllers and decision-making systems using reinforcement learning, training deep learning models on NVIDIA DGX and cloud platforms, or applying deep learning to 3-D data,” said David Rich, MATLAB marketing director.”

Video: Evolution of MATLAB

Cleve Moler from MathWorks gave this talk at the 2017 Argonne Training Program on Extreme-Scale Computing. “MATLAB is a high-performance language for technical computing. It integrates computation, visualization, and programming in an easy-to-use environment where problems and solutions are expressed in familiar mathematical notation. Typical uses include: Data analysis, exploration, and visualization.”

GPUs Power New AWS P2 Instances for Science & Engineering in the Cloud

Today Amazon Web Services announced the availability of P2 instances, a new GPU instance type for Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud designed for compute-intensive applications that require massive parallel floating point performance, including artificial intelligence, computational fluid dynamics, computational finance, seismic analysis, molecular modeling, genomics, and rendering. With up to 16 NVIDIA Tesla K80 GPUs, P2 instances are the most powerful GPU instances available in the cloud.

MathWorks Release 2016b Makes it Easier to Work with Big Data

“Companies are awash in data, but struggle to take advantage of it to build better predictive models and gain deeper insights,” says David Rich, MATLAB marketing director, MathWorks. “With R2016b, we’ve lowered the bar to allow domain experts to work with more data, more easily. This leads to improved system design, performance, and reliability.”
