A better method for identifying overconfident large language models

March 19, 2026 Tech Xplore

Large language models (LLMs) can generate credible but inaccurate responses, so researchers have developed uncertainty quantification methods to check the reliability of predictions. One popular method involves submitting the same prompt multiple times to see […]

Video streaming speed changes could help replace pauses and the frustrating buffering circle

March 18, 2026 Tech Xplore

Viewers would rather watch video at slightly lower speeds than endure rebuffering, according to new research from Lancaster University. The study investigated how dynamically slowing down or speeding up playback is perceived by viewers, and […]

55% of U.S. teens have used AI to create sexualized images, survey finds

March 18, 2026 Tech Xplore

In a survey study of U.S. teens, more than half (55.3%) reported that they had created at least one image using nudification tools, which use generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) to show what an individual may […]

Light becomes matter: Shadowless projection mapping makes images indistinguishable from print

March 18, 2026 Tech Xplore

Projection mapping is widely known as a lighting technique that overlays images onto buildings or objects to create visual effects. In fields such as extended reality (XR) and vision science, however, researchers have suggested that […]

Nanoscale hotspots in OLEDs may shorten their lifespans in phones and TVs

March 17, 2026 Tech Xplore

The pixels in phone screens and other OLED displays appear to provide a uniform glow, but a team of University of Michigan Engineering researchers has discovered the light actually originates from nanoscale hotspots, some of […]

Computers

New model uses team interactions to predict next steps in collaborative work

March 17, 2026 Tech Xplore

Finding the right information at the right time is critical for solving complex problems. Researchers have developed an algorithm that helps individuals locate needed information more efficiently by drawing on both a user’s own history […]

What flocking birds can teach AI about reducing noise

March 17, 2026 Tech Xplore

Among the primary concerns surrounding artificial intelligence is its tendency to yield erroneous information when summarizing long documents. These “hallucinations” are problematic not only because they convey falsehoods, but also because they reduce efficiency—sorting through […]

Computers

Optimization method may expand impedance relays into medium-voltage distribution networks

March 16, 2026 Tech Xplore

Electrical distribution systems are characterized by dynamic operating conditions and complex network topologies, which pose significant challenges for the effective deployment of protection schemes. While impedance relays are widely used in high-voltage transmission systems, their […]
