Recent work in 6D object pose estimation holds significant promise for advancing robotics, augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), as well as autonomous navigation. The research, published in the International Journal of Computational Science and Engineering, introduces a method that enhances the accuracy, generalization, and efficiency of determining an object's rotation and translation from a single image. This could significantly improve robots' ability to interact with objects, especially in dynamic or obstructed environments.

A research collaboration between Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai Qi Zhi Institution, and Huawei Technologies has introduced BAFT, a cutting-edge autosave system for AI training that minimizes downtime and optimizes efficiency.

Aging and illness in humans are accompanied by decline in motor and cognitive functions, causing difficulties in daily life and communication and often leading to anxiety and depression. Human-collaborative robots that can interpret the intentions of humans promise to mitigate these issues and enhance independence.

A new study by Prof. Guy Hochman and Adi Frenkenberg from the Baruch Ivcher School of Psychology at Reichman University presents new findings on the relationship between anxiety, motivation, and dependence on artificial intelligence, exploring how AI usage affects us emotionally.

Fans of Studio Ghibli, the famed Japanese animation studio behind "Spirited Away" and other beloved movies, were delighted this week when a new version of ChatGPT let them transform popular internet memes or personal photos into the distinct style of Ghibli founder Hayao Miyazaki.

A new AI-powered framework has been developed, offering new capabilities for the real-time analysis of two hands engaged in manipulating an object.

When the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland, collapsed on March 26, 2024, engineers and city managers around the U.S. and world scrambled to assess the safety of infrastructure in their communities. Michigan State University researchers have developed a "deploy-and-forget" system that combines sensors with artificial intelligence, or AI, to assess the health of infrastructure like bridges, roads and dams, before and after events that could damage them.

"Stop Hiring Humans" read a provocative sign at an AI conference in Las Vegas, where the impact of new artificial intelligence models on the world of work had sparked some unease.

Hype is growing from leaders of major AI companies that "strong" computer intelligence will imminently outstrip humans, but many researchers in the field see the claims as marketing spin.

In an era where data privacy concerns loom large, a new approach in artificial intelligence (AI) could reshape how sensitive information is processed.

In the age of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI), the phrase "I'll believe it when I see it" no longer stands. Not only is GenAI able to generate manipulated representations of people, but it can also be used to generate entirely fictitious people and scenarios.

Researchers from the Skoltech AI Center, together with colleagues from the Institute for Information Transmission Problems of the Russian Academy of Sciences, have developed a method that allows neural networks to more accurately assess their "confidence" in forecasts.

Every day, users ask search engines millions of questions. The information we receive can shape our opinions and behavior.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) can perform complex calculations and analyze data faster than any human, but to do so requires enormous amounts of energy. The human brain is also an incredibly powerful computer, yet it consumes very little energy.

Large Language Models (LLMs) have rapidly become an integral part of our digital landscape, powering everything from chatbots to code generators. However, as these AI systems increasingly rely on proprietary, cloud-hosted models, concerns over user privacy and data security have escalated. How can we harness the power of AI without exposing sensitive data?

Artificial intelligence has been around for longer than you may think.

Spain's leftist government unveiled a draft bill Tuesday that would criminalize the use of artificial intelligence to generate sexually explicit video images of a person's face or body without their consent.

AI-powered camera technology developed by Australian Catholic University will enable cars to react faster than an Olympic sprinter, see in 3D, and make autonomous driving safer and more affordable.

Where would we be without knowledge? Everything from the building of spaceships to the development of new therapies has come about through the creation, sharing, and validation of knowledge. It is arguably our most valuable human commodity.

It takes 10 times more electricity for ChatGPT to respond to a prompt than for Google to carry out a standard search. Still, researchers are struggling to get a grasp on the energy implications of generative artificial intelligence both now and going forward.

EU researchers are using AI to help ease the flow in Europe's cities, making urban environments both safer and greener.

When someone sees something that isn't there, people often refer to the experience as a hallucination. Hallucinations occur when your sensory perception does not correspond to external stimuli.

When bots—automated agents that perform tasks on behalf of humans—become more active in online communities, it has profound effects on how humans interact with each other on those platforms. Bots designed to help users see more content increase the number of people users connect with but also decrease the interactions between people.

A research team from the Skoltech AI Center and Samara University have developed a system for automatically separating the stages of production processes from video streams. Industrial cameras will detect deviations in the production process themselves and even prevent accidents. By employing the self-supervised learning approach, the cost of manual data markup can be reduced while the model's stability in real conditions can be increased. The research results are presented in the IEEE Access journal.

"Luigi Mangione shoots himself," read the BBC News headline.

More than 250 million people worldwide have verbal communication disorders that make it difficult to use automatic speech recognition programs. Simply sharing what they'd like to eat for dinner by using ASR is cumbersome.

Fast food customers might find themselves talking to an artificial intelligence voice the next time they order tacos or pizza at a drive-through.

Can a complete tech novice create a website using everyday language on ChatGPT?

Researchers at University of Toronto Engineering, led by Professor Yu Zou, are leveraging machine learning to improve additive manufacturing, also commonly known as 3D printing.

Researchers from the Henry and Marilyn Taub Faculty of Computer Science have developed an AI-based method that accelerates DNA-based data retrieval by three orders of magnitude while significantly improving accuracy. The research team included Ph.D. student Omer Sabary, Dr. Daniella Bar-Lev, Dr. Itai Orr, Prof. Eitan Yaakobi, and Prof. Tuvi Etzion.
