Scientists have long suspected that hormones quietly tune how the brain learns, but the idea of a single, hidden “switch” has usually been more metaphor than map. What is emerging from decades of ...

Researchers have found a way to make the chip design and manufacturing process much easier — by tapping into a hybrid blend of artificial intelligence and quantum computing. When you purchase through ...

Neuroscience shows traditional teaching is not enough. Instead, an experiential approach can return learning to its natural ...

Machine learning, a type of artificial intelligence, has many applications in science, from finding gravitational lenses in the distant universe to predicting virus evolution. Hubble Space Telescope ...

John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton were awarded the 2024 Nobel Prize in physics on Tuesday for their contributions to machine learning. Their research, which draws from statistical physics, helped ...

Imagine you are watching a movie, a delightfully engaging and entertaining film. Now imagine that the person sitting next to you is an acclaimed director, an expert at making movies. Will you see the ...

Learning how a physical system behaves usually means repeating measurements and using statistics to uncover patterns. That approach works well in classical science. Once quantum effects dominate, the ...

Scientists are turning to machine learning to help with off-world sample analysis. "This machine learning algorithm can help us by quickly filtering the data and pointing out which data are likely to ...
