How data analytics can help recruit the best engineers
Recruiting top-tier engineers is more than just putting up a job description. Data can help identify and hire great candidates.
Intelligent system to improve vehicle stability systems
Researchers at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M) have developed an intelligent system for estimating a vehicle's dynamic behavior and improving its stability. This will help to optimize the performance of skid and rollover control systems in cars, as well as to prevent potential traffic accidents.
Chip manufacturers' revenues are reaching a historical high as global shortage continues
A new report shows that in the face of unprecedented demand, chip manufacturers are increasing the price of wafers, leading to exceptional revenues across the industry.
Researchers create a camera that knows exactly where it is
Researchers from the University of Bristol have demonstrated how a new special type of camera can build a pictorial map of where it has been and use this map to know where it currently is, something that will be incredibly useful in the development of smart sensors, driverless cars and robotics.
A recurrent neural network that infers the global temporal structure based on local examples
Most computer systems are designed to store and manipulate information, such as documents, images, audio files and other data. While conventional computers are programmed to perform specific operations on structured data, emerging neuro-inspired systems can learn to solve tasks more adaptively, without having to be engineered to carry out a set type of operations.
Naver trained a ‘GPT-3-like’ Korean language model
South Korea's Naver claims it trained a Korean language model that is potentially larger than OpenAI's GPT-3.
Machine learning is changing culture: This text-altering tool shows how
Most of us benefit every day from the fact computers can now "understand" us when we speak or write. Yet few of us have paused to consider the potentially damaging ways this same technology may be shaping our culture.
New mathematical models and algorithms for intelligent image processing inspired by the human visual cortex
Using the visual cortex as a model in the human brain, the research group led by ERC-award-winner Thomas Pock has developed new mathematical models and algorithms as the basis for faster and more intelligent image processing programs.
RPA platform ElectroNeek raises $20M
Robotic process automation platform ElectroNeek has raised $20 million in venture capital, the company announced.
Spiking neural network chip combines low latency and energy consumption with high inference accuracy
In April 2020, imec introduced the world's first chip to process radar signals using a spiking recurrent neural network (SNN). Its flagship use-case? The creation of a smart, low-power multi-sensor perception system for drones that identifies obstacles in a matter of milliseconds.
Robot maker acquires conversational AI startup
A social robot with the gift of gab may soon become the most conversant machine on the planet.
