Researchers develop a machine-learning technique that can efficiently learn to control a robot, leading to better performance with fewer data. This technique could help an autonomous vehicle learn to compensate for slippery road conditions to...
The Singapore MIT-Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART), MIT’s research enterprise in Singapore, has launched a new interdisciplinary research group aimed at tackling key social and institutional challenges around the rise of artificial intelligence and...
As the impacts of climate change continue to grow, so does interest in fusion’s potential as a clean energy source. While fusion reactions have been studied in laboratories since the 1930s, there are still many...
Although computer scientists may initially treat data bias and error as a nuisance, researchers argue it’s a hidden treasure trove for reflecting societal values. The classic computer science adage “garbage in, garbage out” lacks nuance...
The system could improve image quality in video streaming or help autonomous vehicles identify road hazards in real-time. An autonomous vehicle must rapidly and accurately recognize objects that it encounters, from an idling delivery truck...
