Technical aids are advancing and automated decision-making is becoming increasingly common in the public sector—but what do people really think about think about this trend? A new study from Södertörn University in Sweden has shed light on the issue.Technical aids are advancing and automated decision-making is becoming increasingly common in the public sector—but what do people really think about think about this trend?

A significant percentage of people fear AI tech, but not enough to avoid using autonomous cars when they become available. That is according to new research that goes against the “Frankenstein complex,” where humans are predicted to be hostile to robots and AI because they are afraid of them.A significant percentage of people fear AI tech, but not enough to avoid using autonomous cars when they become available.

Visual place recognition (VPR) is the task of identifying the location where specific images were taken. Computer scientists have recently developed various deep learning algorithms that could effectively tackle this task, letting users know where within a known environment an image was captured.Visual place recognition (VPR) is the task of identifying the location where specific images were taken.

Increasingly, social robots are being used for support in educational contexts. But does the sound of a social robot affect how well they perform, especially when dealing with teams of humans? Teamwork is a key factor in human creativity, boosting collaboration and new ideas. Danish scientists set out to understand whether robots using a voice designed to sound charismatic would be more successful as team creativity facilitators.Increasingly, social robots are being used for support in educational contexts.

Evolutionary reinforcement learning is an exciting frontier in machine learning, combining the strengths of two distinct approaches: reinforcement learning and evolutionary computation. In evolutionary reinforcement learning, an intelligent agent learns optimal strategies by actively exploring different approaches and receiving rewards for successful performance.Evolutionary reinforcement learning is an exciting frontier in machine learning, combining the strengths of two distinct approaches: reinforcement learning and evolutionary computation.
