While computers may be able to spot a familiar face or an oncoming vehicle faster than the human brain, their accuracy is questionable.Computers can be taught to process incoming data, like observing faces and cars, using artificial intelligence (AI) known as deep neural networks or deep learning. This type of machine learning process uses interconnected nodes or neurons in a layered structure that resembles the human brain.The key word is "resembles" as computers, despite the power and promise of deep learning, have yet…

Charged particles from the sun coming towards earth interact with the geocorona, a wide cloud of hydrogen atoms extending into space from the Earth. Charge is transferred to the hydrogen atoms, and soft X-rays are emitted.

They analyzed data from the Suzaku…

Artificial Intelligence has come a long way to explore the possibilities hidden in the world of robots. AI has enabled robots to walk, swim, and communicate. Now, they are even able to replicate themselves. New research shows that living robots can biologically replicate themselves in a unique way. The discovery was made by the scientists, who came up with the first living robots — called Xenobots — from frog cells in 2020. These tiny computer-designed robots can swim to find and gather new single cells around them. Then,…

It's a big ol' scary ocean out there. When you're just a teeny tiny embryonic squid, there are a lot of things that might like to have you for lunch.One strategy, employed by a variety of squids, is to protect their eggs in a giant ball of gelatinous, slippery mucus. Some deposit their eggs directly on the seafloor. But at least one squid seems to have a different strategy.  Recent footage taken by researchers from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute in the permanent darkness of the bathypelagic depths has…
