Tech Xplore / AI controller translates VR, video and language commands into humanoid robot actions
Humanoid robots, robotic systems with limbs and body structures that resemble those of humans, could tackle various manual tasks in homes, workspaces and other settings. Yet teaching these robots to reliably perform different ...
Medical Xpress / Brain aging may be detected decades before symptoms appear, with links to gut health
A new UCLA study has found a connection between how quickly the brain ages and the bacteria and chemical byproducts found in the gut, offering a clue to what drives brain aging long before symptoms appear.
Medical Xpress / Study suggests profile of people diagnosed with ADHD and autism has changed over the past decade
A study led by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal) and Aarhus University shows that children and adolescents diagnosed with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or autism spectrum disorder (ASD) ...
Phys.org / AI extracts interpretable constitutive laws directly from solid-mechanics data
Researchers at the Eastern Institute of Technology (EIT), Ningbo, have developed a graph-based approach that directly extracts concise, accurate constitutive equations from solid-material experimental data. The study, published ...
Phys.org / Three quantum phases in chromium-based material hint at a spin-triplet superconductor
Superconductors are materials that conduct electricity without electrical resistance when cooled below a specific critical temperature. These materials have proved promising for the development of various technologies, including ...
Phys.org / A 66.5-million-year-old trackway captures adult T. rex at walking pace
Scientists from the Denver Museum of Nature & Science and Liverpool John Moores University in England have discovered the first adult T. rex trackway, providing insights into how this emblematic predator moved. The findings ...
Phys.org / Ice Age origins of one of humanity's oldest drug habits discovered
A team of Griffith University archaeologists has uncovered evidence that humans were using mind-altering substances much earlier than previously supposed.
Phys.org / New screening system flags food-packaging chemicals linked to serious health risks
Packaged food usually sits in plastic-lined bags designed to keep air, moisture and contaminants out. That same protection can also increase the chances of chemicals from the packaging seeping into the food. When a chemical ...
Phys.org / First Antarctic-wide map of grounded icebergs reveals 'picket fence effect' holding sea ice in place
For the first time, important features of the Antarctic coastal zone have been mapped at high resolution around the continent by training an artificial intelligence tool to accurately recognize grounded icebergs in satellite ...
Phys.org / Compost microbe yields enzyme that tackles polyurethane foam and nylon
Researchers from Aarhus University and the Danish Technological Institute have taken a new approach in the search for enzymes capable of breaking down some of the most difficult types of plastic to recycle. They collected ...
Phys.org / Could quantum protocols make electronic voting more secure?
Electronic voting, the use of electronic systems to cast, record or count votes, could potentially simplify the process of electing new political leaders or other representatives. While some countries have already started ...
Phys.org / AI helps find hidden human proteins and reveals what they do
New research shows how artificial intelligence, combined with advanced experimental science, can help find "hidden" and unexplored proteins in the human body and reveal what they actually do, according to a new study published ...
