Quantum computing’s next step: New algorithm boosts multitasking

December 10, 2024 Tech Xplore

Quantum computers differ fundamentally from classical ones. Instead of using bits (0s and 1s), they employ “qubits,” which can exist in multiple states simultaneously due to quantum phenomena like superposition and entanglement.This article was originally […]

Enabling AI to explain its predictions in plain language

December 10, 2024 Tech Xplore

Machine-learning models can make mistakes and be difficult to use, so scientists have developed explanation methods to help users understand when and how they should trust a model’s predictions.This article was originally published on this […]

Physics-based models combined with big data could lead to systematically better hypotheses

December 9, 2024 Phys Org

Finding a reasonable hypothesis can pose a challenge when there are thousands of possibilities. This is why Dr. Joseph Sang-II Kwon is trying to make hypotheses in a generalizable and systematic manner.This article was originally […]

Black-box forgetting: A new method for tailoring large AI models

December 9, 2024 Tech Xplore

The capabilities of large-scale pre-trained AI models have recently skyrocketed, as demonstrated by large-scale vision-language models like CLIP or ChatGPT. These typical generalist models can perform reasonably well in tasks covering a large variety of […]

Citation tool offers a new approach to trustworthy AI-generated content

December 9, 2024 Tech Xplore

Chatbots can wear a lot of proverbial hats: dictionary, therapist, poet, all-knowing friend. The artificial intelligence models that power these systems appear exceptionally skilled and efficient at providing answers, clarifying concepts, and distilling information. But […]

Finding the weak points: A network-based method to prevent train delay cascades

December 9, 2024 Tech Xplore

Train delays are not only a common frustration for passengers but can also lead to significant economic losses, especially when they cascade through the railway network. When a train is delayed, it often triggers a […]

Hybrid model links micro and macro scales in complex systems

December 6, 2024 Phys Org

In fields ranging from immunology and ecology to economics and thermodynamics, multi-scale complex systems are ubiquitous. They are also notoriously difficult to model. Conventional approaches take either a bottom-up or top-down approach. But in disturbed […]
