Our planet's protective shell isn't quite what it used to be. Over the past two centuries its magnetic strength has taken a nosedive, and nobody has the foggiest idea why. At the same time, a concerning soft-spot in the field called the South Atlantic Anomaly has blistered over the Atlantic ocean, and has already proven problematic for delicate circuitry on orbital satellites.  Both of these troubling observations fuel concerns that we might be seeing signs of an imminent reconfiguration that would turn the compass…

Parallelize your Model Training and Prediction on Sci-Kit LearnImage taken by Marc Kargel from UnsplashThis article will outline how to train and tune certain models on sci-kit learn in parallel to optimize for time. I will also outline how you can parallelize the prediction process for these model(s). I’ll cover partitioning the data into multiple segments and generating predictions for each partition, as well as passing the entire dataset into multiple models. I’ve previously written an article on multiprocessing and…

But the uneasy pandemic years have made all of this more complicated. Oren Etzioni is now the CEO of the Allen Institute for AI, but in the early 2000s he built—and sold to Microsoft—one of the first airfare prediction tools. Prediction algorithms are pretty good at reweighting the importance of different factors as the world changes, and, he says, “they have a shot at adjusting automatically by having the freshest available data.” But that can take some time, according to Etzioni: days, if not weeks.Google Flights helps…

A new study finds that an artificial intelligence model can predict whether Crohn’s disease will recur after surgery.A deep learning model trained to analyze histological images of surgical specimens accurately classified patients with and without Crohn’s disease recurrence, investigators report in The American Journal of Pathology.According to researchers, more than 500,000 individuals in the United States have Crohn’s disease. Crohn’s disease is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that damages the digestive system…

In 2007, lava began to pool inside one of the craters atop Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano, a gentle eruption that would culminate more than a decade later in a spectacular display of spewed ash and massive lava flows. Until that final outburst, the lava lake was a tourist spectacle, a calm surface that hid the churn of magma deeper within the volcano. Now, researchers have found a new way to identify key signs of Kilauea’s eruptive potential—by listening to vibrations from these lava…

Bradley Cooper's first look as legendary composer Leonard Bernstein will surely leave his fans in shock. The actor sported stark white hair and wrinkles as he began filming for Maestro in New York. Bradley will be directing and starring in the Netflix movie, which is based on the life of Broadway composer Leonard Bernstein. The film also stars Maya Hawke, Carey Mulligan and Matt Bomer.

Dogecoin’s appreciation and popularity can’t be sustained for long unless something drastic is done to help sustain it. While the leading cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin BTC and Ethereum ETH have appreciated significantly over the years, hitting $67,000 per token and $4,800 per token respectively, Dogecoin DOGE leads the chart of the most appreciating digital currencies. According to some reports, the digital currency recorded over 22,000% appreciation since its launch, making it one of the most appreciating…

A century ago, futurists held many predictions for the 21st century.While they suggested what life would be like or what the birth rate would be, some of what they predicted revolved around technology.At the time, say in the 1920s, technology was completely mechanical. The automobile had only just become popular and airplanes were still relatively new. If you were a mechanical engineer at the time, your skills were likely in high demand as many industries needed machinists as well as inventors who could invent those…

Waves are one of the most incredible events on the high seas that pump enough adrenaline into our system to make us feel excited and anxious at the same time. Just seeing them from a distance could be enough. However, surfers like to feel and ride them. There is some amazing science behind how waves operate. For instance, waves break once they reach a critical height and then crash into a shower of droplets and bubbles. Waves come in different sizes — they can be as big as a point break or as small as a ripple rolling to…

Soaring inflation, supply chain issues and the hit from the Ukraine war will bring an end to the growth boom India's IT services industry enjoyed during the pandemic, JP Morgan analysts said on Thursday as they downgraded the sector to "underweight".The $194-billion (roughly Rs. 15,068,27 crore) sector whose software services helped businesses adopt to pandemic-era practices of online shopping and remote working is facing a demand slowdown this year as employees return to offices and the Russia-Ukraine war weighs on…
