After a closet cleanout, what options are there for recycling our old threads? Not many. Apart from bringing used clothes to a donation center, there is no process for recycling textiles like there is for bottles and cans. ...

One of artificial intelligence's most stubborn problems is enabling AI systems to accumulate new knowledge without losing what they previously learned. A team of researchers at the MATRIX AI Consortium at The University of ...

Can we fuel gas turbines with hydrogen instead of fossil fuels and cut 15% of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions? Gas turbines generate around 22% of the world's electricity. Replacing fossil fuels is a key step toward ...

A new study led by Fabrice Niyigaba '27 reports the first digital tool for identifying online propaganda in Kinyarwanda, the national language of Rwanda's 15 million people—and possibly the first for any of the Bantu languages ...

University of Minnesota Twin Cities researchers have developed a first-of-its-kind AI system that allows underwater companion robots to monitor a diver's health in real time simply by "watching" their exhaled bubbles.

Artificial intelligence can generate videos so realistic that distinguishing them from authentic footage is becoming increasingly difficult. But a computer science team led by researchers at UC Riverside has developed a tool ...

A KAIST research team has developed a next-generation world model, an internal model an AI builds to understand and predict the world, that learns executable theories from observation alone.

Recycled materials promise a cleaner future, but recycled content alone does not necessarily make a product sustainable. At Georgia Tech's Daedalus Lab, assistant professor Christos Athanasiou and postdoctoral researcher ...

A new type of 3D-printable material developed by researchers at The University of Texas at Austin mimics human tissue's ability to sort and filter, allowing certain molecules to pass through while keeping others out. This ...

Solar cells, devices that can convert sunlight into electricity, are now widely used in many countries, where they are helping to reduce reliance on electricity generated from fossil fuels. While most solar cells used today ...

Rescue teams in coastal cities and towns often need to rescue people who are at risk of drowning. These operations often require emergency teams to locate and reach people in distress as quickly as possible, as even a short ...
