Engineers develop neural networks for self-driving cars to detect people and predict their next movements. It can accurately predict poses and next positions for multiple pedestrians simultaneously up to 45 meters from the vehicle. Most self...
Researchers create a bioreactor that enables the heart tissue to shrink in sync with electrical stimulation. They used very small pieces of heart tissue with preserved function and structure to build this device. It allows scientists to finetune...
Researchers create record-cold quantum gas of potassium-rubidium molecules at temperatures as cold as 50 nanoKelvin. The findings will help scientists compare chemical reactions in classical v/s quantum surroundings. In quantum mechanics, a system...
Engineers use deep learning methods to predict biological age based on tobacco smoking. Male smokers were about 1.5 times as old as their chronological age compared to nonsmokers. Female smokers were predicted to be twice as old as their...
Researchers build a new technique to identify single proteins within minutes, using off-the-shelf components. It is 1000x more sensitive and significantly less expensive than the existing state-of-the-art protein detection assay. The ability to...
Hydrogen and helium were previously considered to be impossible to measure by X-ray. Contrary to this belief, researchers have measured the vibrational structure of both elements using Ambient Pressure X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy. It’s...
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...
In humans, most mammals and even birds, sleep occur in repetitive cycles, in which the body fluctuates between two different phases; REM sleep and non-REM sleep. REM sleep (or rapid eye movement sleep) is a distinctive sleep phase which is...
In 2014, researchers developed a mechanism that lures cancerous brain cells outside the skull. FDA has recently awarded them the ‘breakthrough therapy designation’ for their groundbreaking discovery. Despite cancer therapies that...
Uranium is known to humanity since at least 79 AD when it was used in the ceramic industry (natural oxide form) in several parts of Europe. The chemical element was formally discovered only in 1789, when Martin Heinrich Klaproth, a German chemist...
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...
