Abstract: Streaming forward erasure correction (FEC) is effective for achieving low-latency packet delivery over loss links. Two decoding strategies, namely the forward-first or backward-first ...

The FBI untangled the mysterious Jan. 6, 2021, pipe bombs case by relying on a “new computer program,” which deciphered cellphone data that the agency had held for years. Earlier this month, the ...

A compact data format optimized for transmitting structured information to Large Language Models (LLMs) with 30-60% fewer tokens than JSON. TOON (Token-Oriented Object Notation) combines YAML's ...

Summary: A new brain decoding method called mind captioning can generate accurate text descriptions of what a person is seeing or recalling—without relying on the brain’s language system. Instead, it ...

You can stop looking for glitches in the Matrix—it’s finally been proven that our universe is not merely a simulation running on some powerful alien civilization’s supercomputer. An international team ...

In May 2020, Pratyusha Sharma was painstakingly parsing data to prepare for a meeting with her research group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, hoping to find a pattern. It wasn’t just any ...

Most experimental brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) that have been used for synthesizing human speech have been implanted in the areas of the brain that translate the intention to speak into the muscle ...

EMBL-EBI scientists and collaborators at Heidelberg University have developed CORNETO, a new computational tool that uses machine learning to gain meaningful insights from complex biological data.

Is this real life? Is this just fantasy? A growing number of scientists are suggesting that the idea that we are all living in a simulation may not be completely far-fetched. Simulation theory is the ...
