While Machine Learning has been used for a while in search engines, to perform “context” driven searches is a completely different ball game for existing advance search engines – including the Google. Researchers and Scientists at Berkley introduce an innovative way to perform contextual searches in Scientific data using Machine Learning. Source: Researchers Use Machine…

A.I. tools for Astronomy (Deep Learning)
How to “read” the photo(s) above – the bottom-layer consist of photos take by the Hubble Telescope and as you move to the top you can see the result of the technique used by the researchers to decipher the formation-stage of a galaxy as explained below. One of the challenges face by astronomers is to…
Machines See the Future
Glioma, a form of brain tumor, requires both neurosurgeons and pathologists to work together to provide a proper prognosis to a patient, on how long the treatment will go on. Although, genomic tests are accurate to an extent, the microscopic work done by pathologists is subjective in nature, often resulting in difference in opinions for…
Viruses fall from the Sky
Ever imagined how an epidemic spreads so fast across continents in such a short period? International travellers were considered the main carriers of bacteria, viruses or diseases and ended up in a witch hunt for those poor travellers. Scientific analysis of these virus to ascertain the origin ended up in results which found these viruses…
Brain-like computing in the horizon
When an adult reads news article for his or hers daily knowledge dose, or a kid reads a textbook preparing for an exam, the human brain processes the information and stores it in the memory at the same time. This is what differentiates us, homo-sapiens, from machines, until now. But a team of electrical…
Next-Gen Wearable Device
Those who didn’t watch Colin Farrell’s reboot of Total Recall in 2012, I strongly recommend you watching it. in the movie, which is set in future, Colin and others in the movie talk to their hand which lights up showing circuits in the shape of a mobile phone. The next generation of wearables, won’t adorn…
Pythons and Genetic Algorithm
Did you know pythons can grow back their major organs post fasting ? In some instances their organs increase in volume from 40% to 100%. A research team has found the genetic markers in pythons responsible for various biological activities which are unique to these species. The most interesting aspect of the research is how…
New way of harnessing solar energy
For those who are thinking of turning “green” when it comes to their energy consumption – my advice is to wait. Existing silicon-chips based solar panels use thermal energy to produce electricity. In other words, the heat from the sun warms up the solar panels and stimulates electrodes to generate electricity. That’s why these panels…
Breakthrough Yields Wireless Charging, Shows Potential for Electric Cars
Not for lovers of gas guzzlers like me, but for all the tree-huggers out there, there is a hope of charging your “Teslas” while you just cruise on the road. A new discovery from MIT could overcome a major obstacle preventing widespread adoption of electric vehicles. Read on. For more interesting news bits go to…
