Video-based AI gives robots a visual imagination

In a major step toward more adaptable and intuitive machines, Kempner Institute Investigator Yilun Du and his collaborators have unveiled a new kind of artificial intelligence system that lets robots “envision” their actions before carrying them out. The system, which uses video to help robots imagine what might happen next, could transform how robots navigate and interact with the physical world.In a major step toward more adaptable and intuitive machines, Kempner Institute Investigator Yilun Du and his collaborators have unveiled a new kind of artificial intelligence system that lets robots “envision” their actions before carrying them out.

Inside a giant autonomous warehouse, hundreds of robots dart down aisles as they collect and distribute items to fulfill a steady stream of customer orders. In this busy environment, even small traffic jams or minor collisions can snowball into massive slowdowns. To avoid such an avalanche of inefficiencies, researchers from MIT and the tech firm Symbotic developed a new method that automatically keeps a fleet of robots moving smoothly.Inside a giant autonomous warehouse, hundreds of robots dart down aisles as they collect and distribute items to fulfill a steady stream of customer orders.

A team led by Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) researcher Nitin J. Sanket has shown that ultrasound sensors and a form of artificial intelligence (AI) can enable palm-sized aerial robots to navigate with limited power and computation through fog, smoke, and other challenging conditions during search-and-rescue operations.A team led by Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) researcher Nitin J.

Here’s how AI can (and can’t) help you in your job hunt

For many job seekers, it might seem like there’s never been a harder time to find a job. Hiring for white-collar jobs has been especially weak, part of what economists call a “low-hire, low-fire” job market in which businesses are largely holding onto their workers while hiring remains sluggish, making it difficult for younger workers to land permanent work.For many job seekers, it might seem like there’s never been a harder time to find a job.

Research in the International Journal of Computational Intelligence Studies has examined how we might improve artificial intelligence (AI) systems for interpreting human emotion in written communication. A new system is capable of identifying sentiment not only in broad terms, positive, negative, and neutral, but also at a more detailed, aspect-specific level.Research in the International Journal of Computational Intelligence Studies has examined how we might improve artificial intelligence (AI) systems for interpreting human emotion in written communication.

To get the best out of AI, some users tell it to provide answers as if it were an expert. Others ask it to adopt a persona, such as a safety monitor, to guide its responses. However, this approach can sometimes hurt performance, according to a study available on the arXiv preprint server.To get the best out of AI, some users tell it to provide answers as if it were an expert.

Amid the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence and the debate on how it should be regulated, research by the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC) examines a key question: who sets the rules and through what infrastructure. The article, published in the journal AI & SOCIETY, is authored by UOC doctoral researcher Andreu Belsunces Gonçalves, from the CNSC research group, and Laura Forlano, from Northeastern University in Boston (United States). The study analyzes how certain technological initiatives not only provide services but also promote governance models based on private digital identity and biometric data systems.Amid the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence and the debate on how it should be regulated, research by the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC) examines a key question: who sets the rules and through what infrastructure.
