Published Checking blood pressure in a heartbeat, using artificial intelligence and a camera
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Engineers have designed a system to remotely measure blood pressure by filming a person's forehead and extracting cardiac signals using artificial intelligence algorithms.
Published Pulses driven by artificial intelligence tame quantum systems
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Machine learning drives self-discovery of pulses that stabilize quantum systems in the face of environmental noise.
Published Making 'transport' robots smarter
(via sciencedaily.com) Imagine a team of humans and robots working together to process online orders -- real-life workers strategically positioned among their automated coworkers who are moving intelligently back and forth in a warehouse space, picking items for shipping to the customer. This could become a reality sooner than later, thanks to researchers who are working to speed up the online delivery process by developing a software model designed to make 'transport' robots smarter.
Published A simpler path to better computer vision
(via sciencedaily.com) Research finds using a large collection of simple, un-curated synthetic image generation programs to pretrain a computer vision model for image classification yields greater accuracy than employing other pretraining methods that are more costly and time consuming, and less scalable.
Published A far-sighted approach to machine learning
(via sciencedaily.com) A new technique enables artificial intelligence agents to think much farther into the future when considering how their behaviors can influence the behaviors of other AI agents, toward the completion of a task. This approach improves long-term performance of cooperative or competitive AI agents.
Published Quantum algorithms save time in the calculation of electron dynamics
(via sciencedaily.com) Quantum computers promise significantly shorter computing times for complex problems. But there are still only a few quantum computers worldwide with a limited number of so-called qubits. However, quantum computer algorithms can already run on conventional servers that simulate a quantum computer. A team has succeeded in calculating the electron orbitals and their dynamic development using an example of a small molecule after a laser pulse excitation. In principle, the method is also suitable for investigating larger molecules that cannot be calculated using conventional methods.
Published Self-organization: What robotics can learn from amoebae
(via sciencedaily.com) Researchers have developed a new model to describe how biological or technical systems form complex structures without external guidance.
Published Artificial neural networks learn better when they spend time not learning at all
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Researchers discuss how mimicking sleep patterns of the human brain in artificial neural networks may help mitigate the threat of catastrophic forgetting in the latter, boosting their utility across a spectrum of research interests.
Published 'Butterfly bot' is fastest swimming soft robot yet
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Inspired by the biomechanics of the manta ray, researchers have developed an energy-efficient soft robot that can swim more than four times faster than previous swimming soft robots. The robots are called 'butterfly bots,' because their swimming motion resembles the way a person's arms move when they are swimming the butterfly stroke.
