Computers

New probabilistic method improves how robots localize and map familiar objects

September 3, 2026 Tech Xplore

Reliable navigation, place recognition and object interaction require autonomous robots to maintain precise environmental maps. Semantic simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) adds meaning to a robot’s map by representing landmarks as recognizable objects rather than […]

Technology

Supercooled water enables 3D printing of ice

September 3, 2026 Tech Xplore

Physicists from the University of Amsterdam have developed a method to print three-dimensional structures in ice. The researchers show how small pillars can be printed at an angle, making it possible to print arbitrary profiles […]

Computers

Brain activity patterns could help sharpen LLM deductive reasoning

September 3, 2026 Tech Xplore

Large language models (LLMs), the artificial intelligence systems underpinning the functioning of ChatGPT, Gemini and other similar conversational agents, are now widely used worldwide. In addition to processing, interpreting and generating texts, some of these […]

Researchers develop cost-efficient method for detecting hallucinations in large language models

September 2, 2026 Tech Xplore

Researchers from Skoltech and Sberbank’s Center for Practical Artificial Intelligence have proposed a new method, TOHA, for detecting hallucinations in large language models operating in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems. The approach analyzes the topological structure […]

Technology

Laser-printed PVC interface tracks finger direction and speed without wiring

September 2, 2026 Tech Xplore

Touchscreens and other touch-based controls, from smartphones and tablets to smart devices and wearable electronics, have become part of everyday life. However, many touch interfaces depend on batteries, external power, electrodes and wiring, which can […]

Technology

Engineers create a world-first in floating titanium

September 2, 2026 Tech Xplore

Research led by RMIT University shows the 3D-printed titanium lattice—made up of hollow, interconnected struts filled with foam—not only floats but also withstands seawater exposure and is stronger than the stainless steel or high-density plastic […]

Math

New clustering method uncovers hidden regularities in data

September 2, 2026 Phys Org

One dataset, one model? This approach does not always produce the most useful insights, as a dataset often contains many different relationships. To better understand them, researchers at the Paluno Research Institute in the Faculty […]

Technology

A life-inspired framework for more autonomous and adaptive AI

September 2, 2026 Tech Xplore

Living organisms constantly adjust their behavior according to what is happening inside their bodies. Hunger can shift attention toward food, while cold can make finding warmth more urgent. These internal signals remain meaningful even when […]

Computers

Why adding AI agents to a system sometimes reduces its performance

September 2, 2026 Tech Xplore

Computer scientists worldwide have been developing a wide range of artificial intelligence (AI) systems. Some of these systems rely on an individual AI agent, while others consist of multiple interacting agents that exchange information, cooperate […]

Computers

Adding a ‘doubt detector’ helps AI optimize experiments with 40% fewer tests

September 2, 2026 Tech Xplore

Modern computational tools let scientists explore huge numbers of possible molecules, materials and chemical reactions. But testing every combination in the lab is slow and costly. So how do researchers choose the best “recipe” for […]
