Future events such as the weather or satellite trajectories are computed in tiny time steps, so the computation must be both efficient and as accurate as possible at each step lest errors pile up. A Kobe University team has introduced a new method that uses deep learning for creating tailored, accurate simulations that respect physical laws, while also being more computationally efficient.Future events such as the weather or satellite trajectories are computed in tiny time steps, so the computation must be both efficient and as accurate as possible at each step lest errors pile up.

A new report from the University of Liverpool and the United Nations Migration Agency–International Organization for Migration (IOM) demonstrates how harnessing digital data collected from mobile phone applications and social media platforms can transform the way humanitarian agencies track and respond to population displacement during crises.A new report from the University of Liverpool and the United Nations Migration Agency–International Organization for Migration (IOM) demonstrates how harnessing digital data collected from mobile phone applications and social media platforms can transform the way humanitarian agencies track and respond to population displacement during crises.[#item_full_content]
Collisions between marine vessels and stationary structures, like offshore oil platforms and depleted wellheads, are becoming increasingly common. These collisions come with a cost—including the financial burden of lost goods and potential loss of life.Collisions between marine vessels and stationary structures, like offshore oil platforms and depleted wellheads, are becoming increasingly common.

Researchers at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) have extracted the building blocks of precise hand gestures used in the classical Indian dance form Bharatanatyam—and found a richer “alphabet” of movement compared to natural grasps. The work could improve how we teach hand movements to robots and offer humans better tools for physical therapy.Researchers at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) have extracted the building blocks of precise hand gestures used in the classical Indian dance form Bharatanatyam—and found a richer “alphabet” of movement compared to natural grasps.

Railway infrastructure could be made safer and more reliable using AI, artificial intelligence, according to research published in the International Journal of Information and Communication Technology. The research outlines a new automated, real-time fault detection system based on deep learning that can identify problems with track, bridges, tunnels, and signaling equipment. The work could address long-standing challenges in maintaining complex transportation networks.Railway infrastructure could be made safer and more reliable using AI, artificial intelligence, according to research published in the International Journal of Information and Communication Technology.

Watching 3D movies and TV shows is a fun and exciting experience, where images leap out of the screen. To get this effect, you usually have to wear a special pair of glasses. But that could soon be a thing of the past as scientists have developed a new display system that delivers a realistic 3D experience without the need for any eyewear.Watching 3D movies and TV shows is a fun and exciting experience, where images leap out of the screen.

CISPA researcher Tejumade Àfọ̀njá has co-authored a new international study that uses food as a starting point to reveal significant cultural blind spots in today’s AI systems. The study also introduces a new participatory research approach to create more inclusive datasets and evaluate biases in AI models.CISPA researcher Tejumade Àfọ̀njá has co-authored a new international study that uses food as a starting point to reveal significant cultural blind spots in today’s AI systems.

Nina Beguš remembers being at an event 10 years ago where a group of engineers showcased new robots that could recognize human emotions and offer basic compliments. It was years before AI chatbots would become fixtures of daily online life. But Beguš, who was beginning her Ph.D. in comparative literature, could already envision what was coming.Nina Beguš remembers being at an event 10 years ago where a group of engineers showcased new robots that could recognize human emotions and offer basic compliments.
