Novel AI model inspired by neural dynamics from the brain

New type of “state-space model” leverages principles of harmonic oscillators.

Making AI models more trustworthy for high-stakes settings

A new method helps convey uncertainty more precisely, which could give researchers and medical clinicians better information to make decisions.

The MIT-Portugal Program enters Phase 4

New phase will support continued exploration of ideas and solutions in fields ranging from AI to nanotech to climate — with emphasis on educational exchanges and entrepreneurship.

Merging design and computer science in creative ways

MAD Fellow Alexander Htet Kyaw connects humans, machines, and the physical world using AI and augmented reality.

Novel method detects microbial contamination in cell cultures

Ultraviolet light “fingerprints” on cell cultures and machine learning can provide a definitive yes/no contamination assessment within 30 minutes.

“Periodic table of machine learning” could fuel AI discovery

Researchers have created a unifying framework that can help scientists combine existing ideas to improve AI models or create new ones.

3D modeling you can feel

TactStyle, a system developed by CSAIL researchers, uses image prompts to replicate both the visual appearance and tactile properties of 3D models.

MIT’s McGovern Institute is shaping brain science and improving human lives on a global scale

A quarter century after its founding, the McGovern Institute reflects on its discoveries in the areas of neuroscience, neurotechnology, artificial intelligence, brain-body connections, and therapeutics.

Making AI-generated code more accurate in any language

A new technique automatically guides an LLM toward outputs that adhere to the rules of whatever programming language or other format is being used.

Training LLMs to self-detoxify their language

A new method from the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab helps large language models to steer their own responses toward safer, more ethical, value-aligned outputs.
