Tech Xplore / Machine learning method generates circuit synthesis for quantum computing
Researchers from the University of Innsbruck have unveiled a novel method to prepare quantum operations on a given quantum computer, using a machine learning generative model to find the appropriate sequence of quantum gates ...
Tech Xplore / New electrochromic structure with tri-band optimization developed for energy-saving smart windows in buildings
A research team led by Prof. Cao Xun from the Shanghai Institute of Ceramics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, together with collaborators from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, has developed a new type of ...
Tech Xplore / Researchers use microstructural modeling to optimize electrode materials for batteries
Which factors determine how quickly a battery can be charged? This and other questions are studied by researchers of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) with the help of computer-based simulations.
Tech Xplore / New, electricity-free desalination method shows promise
Researchers from The Australian National University have proposed a new method for desalinating water that avoids many of the unwanted side effects of traditional desalinating techniques and that reduces the energy required ...
Tech Xplore / Electronics engineers successfully integrate MoS₂ transistors on a 200 mm wafer
In recent years, electronics engineers have been trying to design increasingly sophisticated transistors that can be scaled down to smaller sizes. Given the limitations of conventional silicon-based field effect transistors ...
Tech Xplore / Underwater signals generated by open sea airplane crashes could be key to detecting final resting place of MH370
Signals captured on underwater microphones could be key to locating airplanes such as MH370 when they crash into the ocean, Cardiff University research shows.
Tech Xplore / New robotic palm uses sophisticated tactile sensors to mimic human touch
"I'll have you eating out of the palm of my hand" is an unlikely utterance you'll hear from a robot. Why? Most of them don't have palms.
Tech Xplore / AI trained to draw inspiration from images, not copy them
Powerful new artificial intelligence models sometimes, quite famously, get things wrong—whether hallucinating false information or memorizing others' work and offering it up as their own. To address the latter, researchers ...
Tech Xplore / AI chips could get a sense of time with memristor that can be tuned
Artificial neural networks may soon be able to process time-dependent information, such as audio and video data, more efficiently. The first memristor with a "relaxation time" that can be tuned is reported today in Nature ...
Tech Xplore / Using magnetic resonance spectroscopy to design safer, higher-performance lithium batteries
A Columbia Engineering team has published a paper in the journal Joule that details how nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy techniques can be leveraged to design the anode surface in lithium metal batteries. The researchers ...
Tech Xplore / Electric school buses may yield significant health and climate benefits, cost savings
Replacing diesel school buses with electric school buses may yield up to $247,600 in climate and health benefits per individual bus, according to a new study by researchers at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. The ...
Tech Xplore / Can we rid artificial intelligence of bias?
Artificial intelligence built on mountains of potentially biased information has created a real risk of automating discrimination, but is there any way to re-educate the machines?
