| 'Neuroprosthesis' restores words to man with paralysis Posted: 14 Jul 2021 02:41 PM PDT Researchers have successfully developed a 'speech neuroprosthesis' that has enabled a man with severe paralysis to communicate in sentences, translating signals from his brain to the vocal tract directly into words that appear as text on a screen. |
| Posted: 14 Jul 2021 10:19 AM PDT More and more companies are using chatbots in customer services. Due to advances in artificial intelligence and natural language processing, chatbots are often indistinguishable from humans when it comes to communication. But should companies tell customers they are communicating with machines and not with humans? Researchers investigated. Their research found that consumers tend to react negatively when they learn that the person they are talking to is, in fact, a chatbot. |
| How to make biomedical research data able to interact? Posted: 14 Jul 2021 08:06 AM PDT Interoperability describes the ability of different systems to communicate. Scientists have now developed the strategy for a national infrastructure adopted by Swiss university hospitals and academic institutions. With its pragmatic approach, this strategy is based on the development of a common semantic framework that does not aim to replace existing standards, but to use them in a synergistic and flexible way according to the needs of the research and the partners involved. |
| New evidence of an anomalous phase of matter brings energy-efficient technologies closer Posted: 14 Jul 2021 08:05 AM PDT Researchers have found evidence for an anomalous phase of matter that was predicted to exist in the 1960s. Harnessing its properties could pave the way to new technologies able to share information without energy losses. |
| Swarm of autonomous tiny drones can localize gas leaks Posted: 14 Jul 2021 08:05 AM PDT When there is a gas leak in a large building or at an industrial site, human firefighters currently need to go in with gas sensing instruments. Finding the gas leak may take considerable time, while they are risking their lives. Researchers have now developed the first swarm of tiny - and hence very safe - drones that can autonomously detect and localize gas sources in cluttered indoor environments. |
| Idea sharing increases online learner engagement Posted: 14 Jul 2021 08:05 AM PDT Online learning engagement can be increased by nearly one-third by simply prompting students to share course ideas rather than personal details in the form of icebreakers and social introductions. |
| Opening the gate to the next generation of information processing Posted: 14 Jul 2021 08:05 AM PDT Scientists have devised a means of achieving improved information processing with a new technology for effective gate operation. This technology has applications in classical electronics as well as quantum computing, communications and sensing. |
| Posted: 14 Jul 2021 08:05 AM PDT An associate professor of marketing says digital avatars can replace a sales force and customer service employees at a fraction of the cost. |
| Liquid metal sensors and AI could help prosthetic hands to 'feel' Posted: 14 Jul 2021 08:03 AM PDT Prosthetics currently lack the sensation of 'touch.' To enable a more natural feeling prosthetic hand interface, researchers are the first to incorporate stretchable tactile sensors using liquid metal and machine learning. This hierarchical multi-finger tactile sensation integration could provide a higher level of intelligence for artificial hands by improving control, providing haptic feedback and reconnecting amputees to a previously severed sense of touch. |
