So far, deep learning semi-supervised learning algorithms are impractical in real semi-supervised learning scenarios, including medical image processing, hyper-spectral image classification, network traffic recognition, and document…

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory are leading a new effort to land a radio telescope on the Moon. If successful, the project will mark the first step towards exploring the Dark Ages of the…

According to the National Park Service, national park visits hit about 312 million, an increase of 15 million over 2021 and only 6% below the record visits of 2016. More than 3,290,000 people visited Yellowstone in 2022. Many swarm to…

Coffee is the start of many of our mornings. I bought my husband a 32-oz. mug and a mug warmer just so he could IV drip the caffeine into his system. In the U.S. alone, the number of coffee and snack shops grew from just over 48,000 in 2013…

Scientists studying a nearby protostar discovered gaseous water in the star's circumstellar disk, supporting the theory that water on Earth is older than our Sun. The team used ALMA, the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array in…

Hailo announced the Hailo-15 family of high-performance vision processors, designed for integration directly into intelligent cameras for video processing and analytics at the edge. Hailo claims it sets a new standard in computer vision and…

Texas Instruments recently unveiled purpose-built semiconductors with ultrasonic lens cleaning (ULC) technology so that camera systems can quickly detect and remove dirt, ice, and water using microscopic vibrations—the first ultrasonic lens…

The ADXL314 ±200g 3-Axis Digital Accelerometer outputs digital data formatted as 16-bit, twos complement and is accessible via a serial peripheral interface (SPI), 3-wire or 4-wire, or an I2C digital interface. The device implements…

Flexible electronics consisting of electrodes with plastic or metal foil as substrates power wearables. But there’s a downside. Plastics have poor adhesion and low durability, while metal foils make devices bulky and less flexible. Paper is…

Columbia computer scientists and the Toyota Research Institute are making advanced home robots a reality. Robots are improving the quality of human life, augmenting our abilities, freeing up time, and enhancing our safety and well-being.…
