Generative AI imagines new protein structures
Biology is a wondrous yet delicate tapestry. At the heart is DNA, the master weaver that encodes proteins, responsible for orchestrating the many biological functions that sustain life within the…
3 Questions: Honing robot perception and mapping
Walking to a friend’s house or browsing the aisles of a grocery store might feel like simple tasks, but they in fact require sophisticated capabilities. That's because humans are able…
Learning the language of molecules to predict their properties
Discovering new materials and drugs typically involves a manual, trial-and-error process that can take decades and cost millions of dollars. To streamline this process, scientists often use machine learning to…
MIT scientists build a system that can generate AI models for biology research
Is it possible to build machine-learning models without machine-learning expertise? Jim Collins, the Termeer Professor of Medical Engineering and Science in the Department of Biological Engineering at MIT and the…
Educating national security leaders on artificial intelligence
Understanding artificial intelligence and how it relates to matters of national security has become a top priority for military and government leaders in recent years. A new three-day custom program…
When computer vision works more like a brain, it sees more like people do
From cameras to self-driving cars, many of today’s technologies depend on artificial intelligence to extract meaning from visual information. Today’s AI technology has artificial neural networks at its core, and…
Researchers teach an AI to write better chart captions
A new dataset can help scientists develop automatic systems that generate richer, more descriptive captions for online charts.
Computer vision system marries image recognition and generation
MAGE merges the two key tasks of image generation and recognition, typically trained separately, into a single system.
MIT-Pillar AI Collective announces first seed grant recipients
