The new ‘smart’ diapers can notify a caregiver that it’s a time for a change. Unlike other diaper technology, it is both affordable and disposable. It will help track and identify specific health problems, such as signs of...
Microsoft introduces the Turing Natural Language Generation, the world’s largest model with 17 billion parameters. It generates abstractive summaries of text documents, direct answers to questions, and words to complete sentences. The model...
AI model predicts whether a given quantum machine will have any quantum advantage. It is based on a neural network that analyzes the network structure of a quantum system and gradually learns to predict its behavior. This will help scientists...
Researchers develop energy-efficient transparent solar cells using silicon microwire composites. In addition to absorbed sunlight, these solar cells also utilize reflected rays to produce energy. In recent years, the floodgates of research focusing...
Researchers at Facebook AI develop a new reinforcement learning algorithm named DD-PPO. It can navigate through complex environments using only compass data, RGB-D camera, and GPS. Developing intelligent machines that interact smartly with the...
Scientists break the world record for the fastest spinning object. The new object revolves at 300 billion revolutions per minute. It is made of a dumbbell-shaped silica nanoparticle powered by lasers. Torque sensors enabled the first...
The space-based quantum internet would substantially outperform ground-based networks of quantum repeaters. Building a global-scale quantum internet would require placing more than 400 satellites at an altitude of 1,900 miles. The most useful...
The new machine learning tool predicts how long a given computer chip takes to execute specific code. It is more accurate than Intel’s own prediction model. Determining the number of clock cycles a processor takes to execute a block of...
The Chinese space administration (CNSA) is neither the oldest nor the biggest space agency in the world but it’s about to achieve a feat that has been accomplished only by few in the past; establishing a fully functional global navigation...
A computer made of strands of DNA in a test tube can find square roots of square numbers from 1 to 900. Although it works for integers only, this is the most advanced DNA computer to date. At present, companies like Intel and AMD are mass...
DDR5 (short for Double Data Rate 5) is the next-generation standard for SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random-Access Memory). It is designed to deliver much higher performance while consuming less power than its predecessor DDR4. Below, we have covered...
Love it or hate it, Facebook is virtually everywhere. Almost all websites are linked to it, whether they are promoting their own page, letting users leave comments using FB accounts, or just inspecting visitors’ behavior with the Facebook...
