Researchers develop a robotic arm that uses tactile and vision to learn the game of Jenga. The machine-learning method developed in this work could help robot assemble consumer products, and perform other tasks that require careful physical...
Every year, we see various new products and most of them are developed using old technologies. Some influential scientists and mathematicians were born to make a dent in the world. And they successfully did it with their theories, which laid the...
AI can enhance brain imaging techniques to predict Alzheimer’s years before diagnosis. Convolutional Neural Network developed in this study was able to identify brain scans (with 100% sensitivity) that lead to Alzheimer’s disease. More...
Researchers used natural language processing and machine learning methods to recognize alcohol misusers from clinician notes in electronic health records. In 78% of cases, AI was able to distinguish between trauma patients who misused alcohol and...
DARPA announced a new program named MACH that seeks to build new design and materials for hypersonic vehicles. The aim is to develop sharp leading edge solutions that can handle high heat fluxes and deliver performance beyond the existing carbon...
A novel smartphone imaging algorithm allows untrained users to analyze complex assays, such as HIV, ovarian cancer antigens, and tuberculosis DNA. It works by generating a mean pixel intensity with small variances and a high dynamic range. ...
A new method could allow modern CPUs to perform computations using 1,000 times less energy than Landauer limit (0.0172 electronvolts). It works by synchronizing the operations with the processor’s temperature oscillations. In digital...
New machine learning-based model makes driverless vehicles safer. It detects instances in which AI can learn from examples that could cost dangerous errors in the real world. Recent advances in the field of artificial intelligence have made self...
A new type of rectenna made of a thin, two-dimensional semiconductor can convert WiFi signals to electricity. Researchers were able to generate 40 microwatts of power when they exposed rectenna to normal WiFi signals. That is more than enough power...
The new cryptocurrency Vault drastically decreases the amount of data a user needs to join the network and verify transactions. It reduces the storage and bootstrapping cost for 500 million transactions to 477 MB, compared to 143 GB for Bitcoin and...
A new deep learning-based model can automatically detect and map informal settlements using low-resolution satellite imagery. It can classify what the spectrum of an informal settlement looks like, in a cost-effective manner. Nearly one-fourth of...
New deep learning based system can automatically generate pictures from a long text-based description. Researchers demonstrated a network that takes a recipe as input and constructs a picture from scratch. Generating pictures from a short visual...
