How an archeological approach can help leverage biased data in AI to improve medicine

Although computer scientists may initially treat data bias and error as a nuisance, researchers argue it’s a hidden treasure trove for reflecting societal values.

Helping computer vision and language models understand what they see

Researchers use synthetic data to improve a model’s ability to grasp conceptual information, which could enhance automatic captioning and question-answering systems.

System combines light and electrons to unlock faster, greener computing

“Lightning” system connects photons to the electronic components of computers using a novel abstraction, creating the first photonic computing prototype to serve real-time machine-learning inference requests.

How to help high schoolers prepare for the rise of artificial intelligence

A one-week summer program aims to foster a deeper understanding of machine-learning approaches in health among curious young minds.

AI helps robots manipulate objects with their whole bodies

With a new technique, a robot can reason efficiently about moving objects using more than just its fingertips.

Artificial intelligence for augmentation and productivity

The MIT Schwarzman College of Computing awards seed grants to seven interdisciplinary projects exploring AI-augmented management.

How machine learning models can amplify inequities in medical diagnosis and treatment

MIT researchers investigate the causes of health-care disparities among underrepresented groups.

MIT researchers combine deep learning and physics to fix motion-corrupted MRI scans

The challenge involves than just a blurry JPEG. Fixing motion artifacts in medical imaging requires a more sophisticated approach.

AI model can help determine where a patient’s cancer arose

Predictions from the OncoNPC model could enable doctors to choose targeted treatments for difficult-to-treat tumors.
