A team of researchers has created a novel machine learning tool that's cracking open one of biology's trickiest puzzles: finding the rarest microbes on Earth. Think of it like finding a needle in a haystack, except the needle is microscopic and might hold the key to how our ecosystems work.... Read more

Coordinating complicated interactive systems, whether it's the different modes of transportation in a city or the various components that must work together to make an effective and efficient robot, is an increasingly important subject for software designers to tackle. Now, researchers at MIT have developed an entirely new way of... Read more

Sound is a powerful source of information. By training algorithms to identify distinct sound signatures, sound can reveal what a person is doing, whether it's cooking, vacuuming or washing the dishes. And while it's valuable in some contexts, using sound to identify activities comes with privacy concerns, since microphones can... Read more

People seeking to feel fully immersed in virtual environments will soon be able to experience a revolutionary approach to spatial computing that bridges the gap between real and digital worlds. A collaborative research team from NTT DOCOMO, Inc. and Nara Institute of Science and Technology (NAIST), Japan, has developed a... Read more

In Lisbon's busy streets, tuk tuk companies have been slow to adapt to the digital age. Many rely on what researchers consider outdated and error-prone manual processes for managing their fleets of tourist transport vehicles. Research published in the International Journal of Business Information Systems could help them navigate their... Read more
