Computers

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 […]

Tool for training-free, real-time video editing and background separation developed

September 29, 2025 Tech Xplore

Bar-Ilan University announced today that a team from its Department of Computer Science has developed a breakthrough in video processing that significantly simplifies the separation of foreground objects from their backgrounds, without the need for […]

Underground data fortresses: The nuclear bunkers, mines and mountains being transformed to protect data from attack

September 27, 2025 Tech Xplore

It’s a sunny June day in southeast England. I’m driving along a quiet, rural road that stretches through the Kent countryside. The sun flashes through breaks in the hedgerow, offering glimpses of verdant crop fields […]

Stuck on a problem? Talking to a rubber duck might unlock the solution

September 25, 2025 Tech Xplore

You’re neck-deep in IKEA assembly instructions. Furniture parts lie strewn across the floor. Your new purchase sits half-complete in front of you, mocking your fruitless hours. As an uninterested partner walks in, you let the […]

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 […]

Computers

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 […]

Computers

AI scaling laws: Universal guide estimates how LLMs will perform based on smaller models in same family

September 16, 2025 Tech Xplore

When researchers are building large language models (LLMs), they aim to maximize performance under a particular computational and financial budget. Since training a model can amount to millions of dollars, developers need to be judicious […]
