Large language models (LLMs) can handle language tasks, logic, and social reasoning. In the human brain, a core language system supports language processing. EPFL researchers found key units in AI ...

State-space models are AI designed to better understand long-term patterns in data, such as climate trends or biological signals. Unlike traditional models, they track how information evolves rather ...

Caption:MIT researchers created a periodic table of machine learning that shows how more than 20 classical algorithms are connected. The new framework sheds light on how scientists could fuse ...

Microplastics, super-tiny plastic fragments, are found in many of the products we use daily and end up in what we eat. The implications of ingesting microplastics are still being studied, but growing ...

In an extraordinary breakthrough, astronomers led by the University of Cambridge have detected chemical markers in the atmosphere of exoplanet K2-18b that may hint at the presence of life. Using the ...

An SwRI-led study modeled the chemistry of TOI-270 d, a nearby exoplanet between Earth and Neptune in size, finding evidence that it is a giant rocky world (super-Earth) surrounded by a deep, hot ...

In the vast expanse of the universe, galaxies form at the core of dark matter halos—gravitationally bound regions extending far beyond a galaxy’s visible boundaries. These halos are key players in ...

A groundbreaking discovery at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has unveiled a new type of liquid that behaves in surprising ways, challenging long-held principles of thermodynamics. Researchers ...

Discovering and controlling exotic physical states is key in condensed matter physics and materials science. It has the potential to drive advancements in quantum computing and spintronics. While ...

Alteration of the expression of the co-called 'Sonic Hedgehog' gene can transform feet scale and wing feathers. While a transient over-expression of the gene can permanently turn feet scales into ...
