A better way to study ocean currents
A new machine-learning model makes more accurate predictions about ocean currents, which could help with tracking plastic pollution and oil spills, and aid in search and rescue.
Using reflections to see the world from new points of view
A new computer vision system turns any shiny object into a camera of sorts, enabling an observer to see around corners or beyond obstructions.
Training machines to learn more like humans do
Researchers identify a property that helps computer vision models learn to represent the visual world in a more stable, predictable way.
A four-legged robotic system for playing soccer on various terrains
“DribbleBot” can maneuver a soccer ball on landscapes such as sand, gravel, mud, and snow, using reinforcement learning to adapt to varying ball dynamics.
A method for designing neural networks optimally suited for certain tasks
With the right building blocks, machine-learning models can more accurately perform tasks like fraud detection or spam filtering.
New method accelerates data retrieval in huge databases
Researchers used machine learning to build faster and more efficient hash functions, which are a key component of databases.
Efficient technique improves machine-learning models’ reliability
The method enables a model to determine its confidence in a prediction, while using no additional data and far fewer computing resources than other methods.
