Neural networks power today’s AI boom. To understand them, all we need is a map, a cat and a few thousand dimensions. Look at a picture of a cat, and you’ll instantly recognize it as a cat. But try to ...

How do neural networks work? It's a question that can confuse novices and experts alike. A team from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) says that understanding these ...

The simplified approach makes it easier to see how neural networks produce the outputs they do. A tweak to the way artificial neurons work in neural networks could make AIs easier to decipher.

In this special guest feature, Gary Baum, Vice President of Marketing at MyScript, talks about how handwriting recognition is enhancing machine (and human) learning. As an input method, handwriting ...

Artificial intelligence might now be solving advanced math, performing complex reasoning, and even using personal computers, but today’s algorithms could still learn a thing or two from microscopic ...

How do electrical signals become "about" something? Through purely physical processes, neural networks transform activity ...

In 1943, a pair of neuroscientists were trying to describe how the human nervous system works when they accidentally laid the foundation for artificial intelligence. In their mathematical framework ...

The more lottery tickets you buy, the higher your chances of winning, but spending more than you win is obviously not a wise strategy. Something similar happens in AI powered by deep learning: we know ...

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to scientists John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton “for foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural ...
