Physicists have developed a theoretical model that can make thermoelectric materials 5 times more efficient than what we have today. A topological Semimetals, lead tin selenide, under an extremely strong magnetic field, can transform 18% of heat...
Scientists built a cosmochemical model that expands our understanding of Pluto’s origin and evolution. They perform an in-depth investigation of whether molecular nitrogen N2 on Pluto could be a primordial species. Pluto was first discovered...
Researchers build a Deep convolutional neural network that can map every building in the US, using satellite imagery. To do this, they combined signed-distance labels with SegNet (a deep learning network). The system processes an area of 56...
Astronomers detected a fastest growing black hole located more than 12 billion light years away from Earth. The size of this supermassive black hole is equivalent to 20 billion Suns and it is growing 1% every 1 million years. It will help...
Developers have built an image captioning AI [Norman] and trained it on extremely violent content from reddit. As a result, Norman only observes death in whatever pictures it looks at. This kind of research is important to show how data behind...
At WWDC 2018, Apple unveiled its new operating system for iPhone and iPad: iOS 12. Instead of introducing more new features, this time they focused on enhancing performance and removing bugs. While the stable version won’t be available until...
Science is a fascinating subject, it’s something that no one gets bored of (at least geeks like us). We use science to complete different tasks in our day-to-day life. Knowledge of science is basically the reason why we are the most advanced...
Researchers develop a fully-convolutional deep network to extrapolate view beyond two input images. They used a layered representation to show hidden surfaces of input images and predict output views. The system can handle both indoor and outdoor...
The new photonic fiber could serve as a continuous pressure sensor. It’s fabricated from thin layers of transparent stretchable materials. These multiple layers reflect light, producing different colors. It could be used in compression...
Researchers build a unified model that shows what it looks like when a black hole eats a star. This model shows different aspects of tidal disruption events based on observer’s viewing angle. It will help scientists better understand black...
The new 3D printed corneas will bring down the need of cornea donors. Using this technique, the entire cornea can be printed within 10 minutes. However, it will take several years before doctors could successfully replace it with an actual cornea...
Researchers trained a convolutional neural network to detect skin cancer. It outperformed an international group of experienced dermatologists. The AI won’t take over doctors, but it could serve them as an aid to make more accurate decisions...
