The state space explosion problem means that the state space of Petri nets (PNs) grows exponentially with PNs’ size. Even the fundamental reachability problem is still an NP-Hard problem in general. It has been proved that the equivalence problem for the reachability set of arbitrary PNs is undecidable except for some subclass of PNs. That is, the reachability problem of arbitrary PNs cannot be solved exactly. Nowadays, there is no efficient and accurate algorithm to solve the problem.The state space explosion problem means that the state space of Petri nets (PNs) grows exponentially with PNs’ size.

Music performance requires musical expertise and instrument training. While for many it’s a daunting task, others lack physical abilities to play the instruments. Ilya Borovik, a Ph.D. student in computational and data science and engineering, with his co-author from Germany set an ambitious goal to make music performances more accessible to people regardless of their background.Music performance requires musical expertise and instrument training.

As artificial intelligence (AI) reaches the peak of its popularity, researchers have warned the industry might be running out of training data—the fuel that runs powerful AI systems. This could slow down the growth of AI models, especially large language models, and may even alter the trajectory of the AI revolution.As artificial intelligence (AI) reaches the peak of its popularity, researchers have warned the industry might be running out of training data—the fuel that runs powerful AI systems.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a label that can cover a huge range of activities related to machines undertaking tasks with or without human intervention. Our understanding of AI technologies is largely shaped by where we encounter them, from facial recognition tools and chatbots to photo editing software and self-driving cars.Artificial intelligence (AI) is a label that can cover a huge range of activities related to machines undertaking tasks with or without human intervention.

Centimeter-scale walking and crawling robots are in demand both for their ability to explore tight or cluttered environments and for their low fabrication costs. Now, pulling from origami-inspired construction, researchers led by Cynthia Sung, Gabel Family Term Assistant Professor in the School of Engineering and Applied Science’s Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics (MEAM) Department, have crafted a more simplified approach to the design and fabrication of these robots.Centimeter-scale walking and crawling robots are in demand both for their ability to explore tight or cluttered environments and for their low fabrication costs.
