It seems that infants can detect what motivates other people's actions, outperforming AI at the same task. A study performed by researchers at New York University shows the fundamental differences between cognition and computation and where…

Researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) developed an innovative software tool to assemble complete (gapless) genome sequences from various species. Dubbed Verkko, “network” in Finnish, the tool makes creating the sequences…

The International Space Station (I.S.S.) National Laboratory wants your advanced materials and manufacturing projects. It is currently soliciting flight projects for in-space production applications to advance applications that can bring…

There’s some noise in every quantum system that can cause unavoidable errors. They typically use “parametric” amplification to “squeeze” or decrease the noise affecting one variable while increasing the noise that affects its conjugate…

We all love a good movie. They transport us, taking us to worlds and environments many of us won't see in our everyday lives. Movies and the stories they tell can cause us to laugh, weep, feel, and think, sometimes changing us in…

Well, this might make more sense than scheming to get kids into the right university when they haven't even finished high school. A recent survey conducted by researchers from Geisinger, University of Southern California, UCLA, National…

Many of us turn to Reddit for product information, inspiration in Dungeons & Dragons campaigns, and stories about animals doing amazing things. Recently, researchers have turned to Reddit to help analyze depression and anxiety to…

A team of international scientists discovered a new ring system relatively nearby. Quaoar, a dwarf planet, orbits beyond Neptune and is challenging current ring formation theories.  The team used HiPERCAM, an extremely sensitive…

Creating an A.I. tool for chemical reaction design is challenging, especially for complex catalytic reactions. Researchers at the Institute for Chemical Reaction Design and Discovery and the Max Planck Institute für Kohlenforschung…

IoT technology allows us to easily and continually obtain large amounts of diverse data, and AI is gaining attention as a way to use that big data. Machine learning mainly deals with single-label classification problems so that data and…
