Researchers created a silicon chip that precisely spreads light signal, demonstrating a new neural network design. The light eliminates interference caused used by electrical charge, and can travel faster and farther. Developing energy-efficient...
Researched used commercial LIDAR system to image 3D structures melting in the fire. They successfully measured 3D objects with an accuracy of 30 micrometers from a 2-meter distance. The system can generate precise details in the presence of high...
Scientists found a new way to accelerate antimatter in a thousand times smaller space than existing accelerators. The technique is much efficient, inexpensive and would help us study new physics in detail. Particle accelerators in facilities like...
The new lane-changing algorithm relies on real-time data collected by car’s cameras and sensors. It creates and computes new buffer zones on the fly. It allows a wide range of driving style from aggressive to conservative, while ensuring...
A new deep learning model writes poems that outperform human-written poems in rhyme and meter. Some people find it hard to distinguish between the two, but according to experts AI falls short on emotion and readability. Can deep learning methods...
DARPA has selected the Silent Falcon UAS Technologies for its power beaming demonstration. The aim of the project is refuel/recharge an electric unmanned aircraft while in flight, using a high-intensity laser beam. Although the notion of wireless...
New algorithm, named Ensemble Poisson Kalman Filter (EnPKF), can suggest the area where crime is most likely to happen within the next hour. It can also tell what resources would be required to address such crimes. Police and crime branch...
Scientists generate pulses shorter than the wave period, using an optical parametric amplifier. It can be used to observe how electrons move within atoms. Over the past few years, high-energy, few-cycle mid-infrared pulses have attracted a lot of...
Ytterbium-based materials can amplify quantum signals to diffuse them over long distances. The material can preserve photons (carrying quantum data) from external disturbances so that they can be synchronized. Quantum cryptography is an attempt to...
A new machine learning model predicts what audiences will most likely watch a movie based on its trailer. It uses Collaborative Filtering method to extract trailer features like faces, objects, landscapes, etc. These features are then combined...
Neural networks can automatically enhance your pictures without ever being trained on what a noise-free photo looks like. It can be used in low-light photography, magnetic resonance imaging and physically-based image synthesis. Wouldn’t it be...
The smart bandage can monitor the conditions of chronic wounds and deliver appropriate drugs. It has pH, temperature and oxygen sensors fabricated on parchment paper. All components are selected to keep its cost low. Chronic non-healing wounds...
