Tech Xplore / AI framework cuts computing use by two-thirds while more than tripling success in virtual tasks
A research team led by professor Minhae Kwon of the School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering has developed two core next-generation artificial intelligence (AI) technologies that enable AI systems to handle complex, ...
Tech Xplore / Deleted AI chats may leave clues behind
Deleting a conversation with an artificial intelligence (AI) assistant may not erase everything the assistant remembers. Georgia Tech researchers have developed a tool that can recover deleted conversations from AI assistants ...
Tech Xplore / New AI-powered mosquito trap could help curb dengue outbreaks
As Florida continues to face one of its worst dengue outbreaks in nearly a century, a mosquito trap created by USF startup Digitomy is helping curb the spread of the virus and other mosquito-borne diseases. The smart trap ...
Tech Xplore / Where's the bug? AI pinpoints and explains flaws in smart contracts
Smart contracts are computer programs that run on blockchains and carry out agreements automatically, like a vending machine that releases a product once payment is made. Today they power cryptocurrency payments, online lending ...
Tech Xplore / Running with the Red Queen: Using game theory to improve cybersecurity in the AI era
In Lewis Carroll's "Alice Through the Looking Glass," the eponymous heroine encounters the Red Queen, who involves her in a frantic race. In this curious country, Alice learns, you have to run as fast as you possibly can ...
Tech Xplore / Faster, more accurate airborne radiation detection demonstrated in six-second helicopter flyovers
A new radiation detection method correctly identified single and mixed radioactive sources during six-second helicopter flyovers, according to a University of Michigan Engineering and Paul Scherrer Institute study.
Tech Xplore / Engineers develop stealthy, low-cost tech to detect drones
Florida International University researchers have developed a new way to detect incoming drones using the unique magnetic signatures generated by their motors—offering a detection method that is stealthier, safer and cheaper ...
Tech Xplore / Wearable system captures human activity data for robot training
Humanoid robots, robotic systems with a body shape that resembles that of humans, could tackle various chores and everyday manual tasks. To successfully complete these tasks, however, the robots should be able to reliably ...
Tech Xplore / Researchers develop new way to reduce metal waste in manufacturing
Manufacturing aircraft components, battery materials, cutting tools, biomedical implants and other precision-engineered parts often involves metals in powder form.
Tech Xplore / Low-power neural chip reads brain signals to identify cognitive and emotional states
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a therapeutic technique that delivers electrical pulses to specific areas of the brain via an implant to modulate neural activity. It is already widely used for movement disorders such as Parkinson's ...
Tech Xplore / AI deepfakes are getting more realistic. Scientists developed a better way to spot them
Hundreds of the nation's computer scientists gathered for a conference in Denver last fall, and Tuan Tran had a big test for them: Could they tell the difference between the real Brad Pitt and an AI-generated version of him?
Tech Xplore / No lithium metal anode to start? Silver-based additive helps stabilize next-generation batteries
A research team at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has developed a dynamic integrated interface engineering strategy that enhances the energy density and stability of anode-free lithium metal batteries ...
