Y

Definition: A prominent computer scientist known for his contributions to the fields of machine learning, computer vision, mobile robotics, and computational neuroscience. He is one of the founding fathers of convolutional neural networks, a key technology in deep learning.

Definition: A popular real-time object detection system that applies a single neural network to the full image, dividing the image into regions and predicting bounding boxes and probabilities for each region simultaneously. This approach enables YOLO to achieve high speeds and accuracy in object detection.

Definition: In agriculture, AI techniques are used to predict the yield of crops based on various data inputs like weather conditions, soil quality, crop health, etc. This helps in better planning and resource allocation.

Definition: In plotting or graphical representations, which are common in data analysis and machine learning for visualising data and results, the y-axis is the vertical axis of a chart or graph.

Definition: A unit of information or computer storage equal to one septillion bytes (or a trillion terabytes). As AI and big data fields grow, handling and processing such vast amounts of data efficiently becomes crucial.

Definition: In manufacturing and production, AI methods optimise processes to maximise yield, which involves increasing the output efficiency and quality control using predictive analytics and process automation.

Definition: A cluster management technology used with Apache Hadoop that allows for the resource management and job scheduling of compute tasks. AI applications that process large datasets often use YARN to manage resources efficiently.

Definition: A Python visualisation library based on Matplotlib that assists data scientists in creating interpretable and visually appealing machine learning model diagnostic plots.

Definition: A sub-task in natural language processing where an AI system provides answers to questions posed in natural language in a binary form, typically “yes” or “no”. This requires understanding of the context, the entities involved, and the conditions of the query.

Definition: In finance, AI and machine learning techniques model the yield curve, or the relationship between interest rates and different debt maturities, to predict changes and make investment decisions.

Definition: In materials science, AI models predict Young’s modulus, which is a measure of the stiffness of a solid material. It helps in understanding material properties without extensive physical testing.

Definition: In image and video processing, YUV is a colour space used as part of the colour image pipeline in video and digital photography. AI models that work with image and video data often convert RGB data to YUV to separate luminance from chrominance to reduce dimensionality and focus processing on relevant features.

Definition: Part of Apache Hadoop, it is responsible for allocating resources to various running applications based on predefined criteria and their requirements, which is crucial for managing large-scale data processing tasks in AI and big data applications.
