‘Embodied’ AI in virtual reality improves programming student confidence

October 1, 2025 Tech Xplore

Researchers have found that giving AI “peers” in virtual reality (VR) a body that can interact with the virtual environment can help students learn programming. Specifically, the researchers found students were more willing to accept […]

Humans extend forgiveness to machines just as they do to people, study reveals

September 30, 2025 Tech Xplore

When a machine fails, our first reaction is often frustration. A computer freezing at the worst possible moment, a navigation app leading us straight into a traffic jam, or a washing machine suddenly stopping mid-cycle—all […]

Interrupting encoder training in diffusion models enables more efficient generative AI

September 29, 2025 Tech Xplore

A new framework for generative diffusion models was developed by researchers at Science Tokyo, significantly improving generative AI models. The method reinterpreted Schrödinger bridge models as variational autoencoders with infinitely many latent variables, reducing computational […]

New design tackles integer factorization problems through digital probabilistic computing

September 22, 2025 Tech Xplore

Probabilistic Ising machines (PIMs) are advanced and specialized computing systems that could tackle computationally hard problems, such as optimization or integer factorization tasks, more efficiently than classical systems. To solve problems, PIMs rely on interacting […]

Rethinking train delays with quantum power

September 18, 2025 Tech Xplore

Train delays can cascade into stalled commutes, economic losses, and vacation snags. Scheduling trains is computationally complex, though: It can take hours or days to solve large transportation networks on traditional computers, when disruptions like […]

The AI model that teaches itself to think through problems, no humans required

September 18, 2025 Tech Xplore

Artificial intelligence is getting smarter every day, but it still has its limits. One of the biggest challenges has been teaching advanced AI models to reason, which means solving problems step by step. But in […]

Computers

Robotic assembly lines gain flexibility as algorithm plans tasks, teams and floor layouts

September 18, 2025 Tech Xplore

Developments in autonomous robotics have the potential to revolutionize manufacturing processes, making them more flexible, customizable, and efficient. But coordinating fleets of autonomous, mobile robots in a shared space—and helping them work with each other […]
