Getting up to speed on the proton Posted: 06 Oct 2021 01:01 PM PDT A century ago, scientists first detected the proton in the atomic nucleus. Yet, much about its contents remains a mystery. Scientists report a new theory for understanding what's inside protons moving at the speed of light. |
LEONARDO, the bipedal robot, can ride a skateboard and walk a slackline Posted: 06 Oct 2021 01:00 PM PDT LEO carves out a new type of locomotion somewhere between walking and flying. |
Skyrmion research: Braids of nanovortices discovered Posted: 06 Oct 2021 08:26 AM PDT A team of scientists has discovered a new physical phenomenon: complex braided structures made of tiny magnetic vortices known as skyrmions. Skyrmions were first detected experimentally a little over a decade ago and have since been the subject of numerous studies, as well as providing a possible basis for innovative concepts in information processing that offer better performance and lower energy consumption. Furthermore, skyrmions influence the magnetoresistive and thermodynamic properties of a material. The discovery therefore has relevance for both applied and basic research. |
Brain cell differences could be key to learning in humans and AI Posted: 06 Oct 2021 08:26 AM PDT Researchers have found that variability between brain cells might speed up learning and improve the performance of the brain and future AI. |
Intelligence emerging from random polymer networks Posted: 06 Oct 2021 07:44 AM PDT A team of researchers assembled a sulfonated polyaniline (SPAN) organic electrochemical network device (OEND) for use in reservoir computing. SPAN was deposited on gold electrodes which formed a disordered network providing humidity-dependent electrical properties. The SPAN OEND was tested for reservoir computing using benchmark tasks and spoken-digit classification, which showed 70% accuracy. The device has the potential to be applied to a wide range of artificial intelligence tasks including speech recognition. |
New type of magnetism unveiled in an iconic material Posted: 05 Oct 2021 09:47 AM PDT Scientists have made a path-breaking discovery in strontium ruthenate -- with potential for new applications in quantum electronics. |
Making self-driving cars human-friendly Posted: 04 Oct 2021 05:34 PM PDT Automated vehicles could be made more pedestrian-friendly thanks to new research which could help them predict when people will cross the road. Scientists investigating how to better understand human behavior in traffic say that neuroscientific theories of how the brain makes decisions can be used in automated vehicle technology to improve safety and make them more human-friendly. |
