Computational text analysis reveals how TV representations of professions have changed over 70 years
Across 70 years of data on media subtitles for television and film, architecture and engineering are the most positively portrayed professions, whereas sales-related professions fare worst, find the authors of a new study published in the open access journal PLOS ONE.
Teaching physics to AI allows it to discover new insights into material properties
Researchers at Duke University have demonstrated that incorporating known physics into machine learning algorithms can help the inscrutable black boxes attain new levels of transparency and insight into material properties.
Energy-efficient AI hardware technology via a brain-inspired stashing system
Researchers have proposed a novel AI system inspired by the neuromodulation of the brain, referred to as a "stashing system," that requires less energy consumption. The research group led by Professor Kyung Min Kim from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering has developed a technology that can efficiently handle mathematical operations for artificial intelligence by imitating the continuous changes in the topology of the neural network according to the situation.
