A team of researchers report in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on a new graphene-based sensor design that, through machine learning, was able to develop a near-human sense of taste. This device is the ...
Severe weather events, such as heavy rainfall, are on the rise worldwide. Reliable assessments of these events can save lives and protect property. Researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have developed ...
A new paper from two University of Maine researchers explores the challenges and opportunities for scholars and practitioners when it comes to using AI to study and develop interventions for relationship and family therapy.
A new study published in Nature Communications has found that 17.31% of tropical tree cover—an area spanning 395.9 million hectares (Mha)—has been consistently overlooked by global forest monitoring systems, exposing ...
In a world-first pilot study, researchers from the University of South Australia have used video footage of insects to extract their heart rates without touching or disturbing them.
With the recent first light milestone for the Vera Rubin Observatory, it's only a matter of time before one of astronomy's most long-awaited surveys begins. The Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) is set to start on November ...
The graphite found in your favorite pencil could have instead been the diamond your mother always wears. What made the difference? Researchers are finding out.
For decades, scientists have looked to light as a way to speed up computing. Photonic neural networks—systems that use light instead of electricity to process information—promise faster speeds and lower energy use than ...
The climate we live in affects our lives in profound ways: hot summers, cold winters, dry spells and wet weather all leave their mark.
For a long time, universities worked off a simple idea: knowledge was scarce. You paid for tuition, showed up to lectures, completed assignments and eventually earned a credential.
