MIT researchers introduce generative AI for databases
This new tool offers an easier way for people to analyze complex tabular data.
Data
MIT-Takeda Program wraps up with 16 publications, a patent, and nearly two dozen projects completed
The program focused on AI in health care, drawing on Takeda’s R&D experience in drug development and MIT’s deep expertise in AI.
Researchers use large language models to help robots navigate
The method uses language-based inputs instead of costly visual data to direct a robot through a multistep navigation task.
Making climate models relevant for local decision-makers
A new downscaling method leverages machine learning to speed up climate model simulations at finer resolutions, making them usable on local levels.
A data-driven approach to making better choices
In the new economics course 14.163 (Algorithms and Behavioral Science), students investigate the deployment of machine-learning tools and their potential to understand people, reduce bias, and improve society.
A technique for more effective multipurpose robots
With generative AI models, researchers combined robotics data from different sources to help robots learn better.
Looking for a specific action in a video? This AI-based method can find it for you
A new approach could streamline virtual training processes or aid clinicians in reviewing diagnostic videos.
School of Engineering welcomes new faculty
Fifteen new faculty members join six of the school’s academic departments.
A community collaboration for progress
Graduate student Nolen Scruggs works with a local tenant association to address housing inequality as part of the MIT Initiative on Combatting Systemic Racism.
From steel engineering to ovarian tumor research
