Tech Xplore / A shortcut to AI computation: In-memory computing overcomes data transfer bottlenecks
As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to advance, researchers at POSTECH (Pohang University of Science and Technology) have identified a breakthrough that could make AI technologies faster and more efficient.
Tech Xplore / More power grid connectivity in Western US could supercharge clean energy
A new study led by researchers at the University of California San Diego offers a first-of-its-kind look at how deeper coordination among Western U.S. states could lower the cost of decarbonizing the electric grid—and speed ...
Tech Xplore / Cutting the complexity from digital carpentry: System turns simple sketches into digital schematics
Many products in the modern world are in some way fabricated using computer numerical control (CNC) machines, which use computers to automate machine operations in manufacturing. While simple in concept, the ways to instruct ...
Tech Xplore / Ferroelectric RAM performs calculations within memory
In a new Nature Communications study, researchers have developed an in-memory ferroelectric differentiator capable of performing calculations directly in the memory without requiring a separate processor.
Tech Xplore / Diagram-based language streamlines optimization of complex coordinated systems
Coordinating complicated interactive systems, whether it's the different modes of transportation in a city or the various components that must work together to make an effective and efficient robot, is an increasingly important ...
Tech Xplore / 'Cold' manufacturing approach solves fabrication challenge for solid-state batteries
Lithium-ion batteries have been a staple in device manufacturing for years, but the liquid electrolytes they rely on to function are quite unstable, leading to fire hazards and safety concerns. Now, researchers at Penn State ...
Tech Xplore / Algorithm can make AI responses increasingly reliable with less computational overhead
ChatGPT and alike often amaze us with the accuracy of their answers, but unfortunately, they also repeatedly give us cause for doubt. The main issue with powerful AI response engines (artificial intelligence) is that they ...
Tech Xplore / Semiconductor nanowires capture diffuse sunlight to split water and store energy as hydrogen
A U of A engineering researcher is using sunlight and semiconductor catalysts to produce hydrogen by splitting apart water molecules into their constituent elements.
Tech Xplore / Combining electrical and force signals boosts prosthetic hand accuracy
Combining two different kinds of signals could help engineers build prosthetic limbs that better reproduce natural movements, according to a new study from the University of California, Davis. The work, published April 10 ...
Tech Xplore / A new way to measure uncertainty provides an important step toward confidence in AI model training
It's obvious when a dog has been poorly trained. It doesn't respond properly to commands. It pushes boundaries and behaves unpredictably. The same is true with a poorly trained artificial intelligence (AI) model. Only with ...
Tech Xplore / Robotic system zeroes in on objects most relevant for helping humans
For a robot, the real world is a lot to take in. Making sense of every data point in a scene can take a huge amount of computational effort and time. Using that information to then decide how to best help a human is an even ...
Tech Xplore / 'Periodic table of machine learning' framework unifies AI models to accelerate innovation
MIT researchers have created a periodic table that shows how more than 20 classical machine-learning algorithms are connected. The new framework sheds light on how scientists could fuse strategies from different methods to ...
