Researchers unlock hardware’s hidden talent for rendering 3D graphics for science—and video games
Hyper-connectivity has changed the way we communicate, wait, and productively use our time. Even in a world of 5G wireless and “instant” messaging, there are countless moments throughout the day
Pattern discovery over pattern recognition—new way for computers to see
CORI at Lawrence Berkeley Lab is one of the world’s fastest computers. It is named after Gerty Theresa Cori, the first woman to win a Nobel Prize for Physiology or
Success in recognizing digits and monosyllables with high accurary from brain activity measurement
Hyper-connectivity has changed the way we communicate, wait, and productively use our time. Even in a world of 5G wireless and “instant” messaging, there are countless moments throughout the day
Neural networks explained
Most applications of deep learning use “convolutional” neural networks, in which the nodes of each layer are clustered, the clusters overlap, and each cluster feeds data to multiple nodes (orange
Scientists develop a novel algorithm inspired by bee colonies to help dismantling criminal social networks
Credit: University of Granada Researchers from the University of Granada (UGR) have designed an algorithm, inspired by the intelligent and social behavior of bee colonies, which allows law enforcement to
Helping students learn by sketching
Although sketching exercises can help students learn many subjects, they are woefully underused in classrooms. “Sketches are difficult and time-consuming to grade,” said Northwestern University’s Ken Forbus. “Intelligent tutoring systems,
Biased bots: Human prejudices sneak into artificial intelligence systems
Researchers found that certain search terms revealed AI bias. Credit: Princeton University In debates over the future of artificial intelligence, many experts think of the new systems as coldly logical
New machine learning models can detect hate speech and violence from texts
Children and adolescents who watch a lot of television are more likely to manifest antisocial and criminal behaviour when they become adults, according to a new University of Otago, New
Tool checks computer architectures, reveals flaws in emerging design
Researchers including Professor Margaret Martonosi (center) and graduate students Yatin Manerkar and Caroline Trippel have developed a tool that eliminates bugs by checking computer processor designs for memory issues. The
Using randomness to protect election integrity
Inspecting election results is best done with a dash of randomness. Credit: Boonyen/shutterstock.com Democratic societies depend on trust in elections and their results. Throughout the 2016 presidential election, and since
Machine learning models for drug discovery
YouTube TV, Google’s new streaming package of about 40 television channels, is the tech industry’s latest bid to get cable-shunning millennials to pay for live TV over the internet. It
Workplace diversity will soon include artificial intelligence
Dr Micheal Harre is thinking through how the AI future will work. Credit: University of Sydney A tsunami of change is already arriving. Artificial intelligence is now capable of doing
