Dan Kitwood/Getty Images hide caption toggle caption Dan Kitwood/Getty Images Whether prices are up or down, for many investors in cryptocurrency, the real appeal is that there’s nobody in charge. As the crowd […]
Technology helps self-driving cars learn from own memories
An autonomous vehicle is able to navigate city streets and other less-busy environments by recognizing pedestrians, other vehicles and potential obstacles through artificial intelligence. This is achieved with the help of artificial neural networks, which are trained to “see” the car’s surroundings, mimicking the human visual perception system. But unlike humans, cars using […]
Engineers build LEGO-like artificial intelligence chip | MIT News
Imagine a more sustainable future, where cellphones, smartwatches, and other wearable devices don’t have to be shelved or discarded for a newer model. Instead, they could be upgraded with the latest sensors and processors that would snap onto a device’s internal chip — like LEGO bricks incorporated into an existing […]
Computer Model Identifies Mutations That Drive Cancer Growth
Cancer cells can have thousands of mutations in their DNA. However, only a handful of those actually drive the progression of cancer; the rest are just along for the ride. Distinguishing these harmful driver mutations from the neutral passengers could help researchers identify better drug targets. To boost those efforts, […]
IDC Perspective on Integration of Quantum Computing and HPC
The insatiable have to compress time to insights from huge and sophisticated datasets is fueling the demand for quantum computing integration into excessive efficiency computing (HPC) environments. Such an integration would permit enterprises to speed up and optimize present HPC functions and processes by simulating and emulating them on at […]
