Scaling audio-visual learning without labels
A new multimodal technique blends major self-supervised learning methods to learn more similarly to humans.
Machine learning
A more effective way to train machines for uncertain, real-world situations
Researchers develop an algorithm that decides when a “student” machine should follow its teacher, and when it should learn on its own.
New tool helps people choose the right method for evaluating AI models
Selecting the right method gives users a more accurate picture of how their model is behaving, so they are better equipped to correctly interpret its predictions.
Using AI, scientists find a drug that could combat drug-resistant infections
The machine-learning algorithm identified a compound that kills Acinetobacter baumannii, a bacterium that lurks in many hospital settings.
Researchers use AI to identify similar materials in images
This machine-learning method could assist with robotic scene understanding, image editing, or online recommendation systems.
A better way to study ocean currents
A new machine-learning model makes more accurate predictions about ocean currents, which could help with tracking plastic pollution and oil spills, and aid in search and rescue.
