Corn is one of the world's most important crops, critical for food, feed, and industrial applications. In 2023, corn ...

Rapid advances in the kind of problems that quantum computers can tackle suggest that they are closer than ever to becoming ...

Third are sensory reconstruction interfaces, such as restoring hearing or vision. For patients who have lost sensory input, ...

Zooming in on the auditory cortex, the researchers found three unique sets of neurons that light up while we listen to music. Two sets of neurons encode absolute pitch (individual musical notes) and ...

Most languages use word position and sentence structure to extract meaning. For example, "The cat sat on the box," is not the ...

We independently review everything we recommend. We may get paid to link out to retailer sites, and when you buy through our links, we may earn a commission. Learn more› By Adrienne Maxwell Adrienne ...

"There are still a lot of technical challenges remaining to get to a very large-scale computer with millions of qubits, but this is the first time we have an architecture that is conceptually scalable ...

Imagine you're watching a movie, in which a character puts a chocolate bar in a box, closes the box and leaves the room. Another person, also in the room, moves the bar from a box to a desk drawer.

Abstract: Ego-motion estimation is a key requirement for the simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) problem. The traditional pipeline goes through feature extraction, feature matching and pose ...

To build a large-scale quantum computer that works, scientists and engineers need to overcome the spontaneous errors that quantum bits, or qubits, create as they operate. Scientists encode these ...

If you're anything like me, Steam's trailer function has been—for its entire lifespan—pretty much useless. Maybe I'm just cursed, but in my experience the player is laggy, impossible to scrub through, ...

Inspired by naturally occurring air bubbles in glaciers, researchers have developed a method to encode messages in ice. Publishing June 18 in the Cell Press journal Cell Reports Physical Science, the ...
