The human brain adapts when it learns anything new. When artificial intelligence (AI) learns anything new, though, it has a tendency to forget what it already knows. As companies collect more data to improve how AI recognizes images, learns languages, and performs other complex tasks, a paper pub.....
Combining centuries-old mandala coloring with cutting-edge computing and brain-sensing technology may lead to new ways of assisting people in achieving mindfulness. Mandalas are geometric shape arrangements that have their origins in Buddhist traditions. The practice of coloring mandala shapes is.....
It begins with a superspreader and progresses via a complex web of interconnections, finally leaving no one unaffected. Those who have previously been exposed may only encounter minor side effects. It’s not a virus, to be sure. It’s the spread of viral misinformation and disinformatio.....
Tokyo Tech researchers have created a novel accelerator chip called “Hiddenite” that can achieve state-of-the-art accuracy in the calculation of sparse “hidden neural networks” with fewer processing overhead. The Hiddenite chip dramatically decreases external memory access for improved co.....
Rapid application development (RAD), sometimes known as rapid application building (RAB), is a development strategy that favors speedy prototyping and feedback over lengthy development and testing cycles. The components or functions of the RAD paradigm are developed in concurrently as if they wer.....
Georgia State University researchers have developed lightning-fast computer tools that can assist countries in tracking and analyzing pandemics, such as the one caused by COVID-19, before they spread like wildfire over the world. The team of computer scientists and mathematicians claims that thei.....
Thanks to a group of international scientists who developed a unique prototype that could alter how we communicate online, the world is one step closer to having a completely safe internet and a response to the growing threat of cyber-attacks. The University of Bristol’s invention, publishe.....
Automatic surveillance systems, self-driving cars, facial recognition, healthcare, and social distancing tools are all examples of where computer vision technology is being applied. Users need accurate and trustworthy visual data to properly benefit from video analytics solutions, however, video .....
To get any smarter, artificial intelligence (AI) must first match the intelligence of one of the most basic animals in the natural kingdom: the sea slug. The simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, particularly computer systems, is known as artificial intelligence. Expert systems,.....
Noise, such as electromagnetic interference from a microwave or Bluetooth device, may affect every bit of data that goes over the internet, from words in an email to 3D images in a virtual reality environment. The data is encoded such that when it reaches its destination, a decoding program can r.....
A relatively new sort of computer that replicates how the human brain functions were already changing how scientists approached some of the most difficult data processing challenges. Researchers have now discovered a technique to make reservoir computing function between 33 to a million times qui.....
Scientists at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and the Institut Pasteur in France have found a method for rebuilding whole genomes, including the human genome, on a desktop computer. This method is a hundred times faster than existing state-of-the-art methods and requires just a fifth.....
