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.

Designing a new way to optimize complex coordinated systems

Using diagrams to represent interactions in multipart systems can provide a faster way to design software improvements.

New model predicts a chemical reaction’s point of no return

Chemists could use this quick computational method to design more efficient reactions that yield useful compounds, from fuels to pharmaceuticals.

“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.

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.

A faster way to solve complex planning problems

By eliminating redundant computations, a new data-driven method can streamline processes like scheduling trains, routing delivery drivers, or assigning airline crews.

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.
