Deploying Data Science and AI to Fight Wildlife Trafficking

by WIPL-D in Engineering, Engineering News

This is a sponsored article brought to you by NYU Tandon School of Engineering. Wildlife trafficking is a lucrative market. While it’s hard to tell exactly how much money it brings in, the U.S. government estimates it’s in the billions of dollars a year. Animals and their parts are traded much like firearms or narcotics […]

New Records for the Biggest and Smallest AI Computers

by Greg Goth in Engineering, Engineering News

The machine-learning consortium MLCommons released the latest set of benchmark results last week, offering a glimpse at the capabilities of new chips and old as they tackled executing lightweight AI on the tiniest systems and training neural networks at both server and supercomputer scales. The benchmark tests saw the debut of new chips from Intel […]

AI Helps Humans Level Up

by erico guizzo in Engineering, Engineering News

Back in the mid-1970s, IEEE Spectrum senior editor Phil Ross played one of the first chess programs capable of vanquishing humans. He capitulated quickly—too quickly, it turned out: Although the program that beat him was good at openings and the middle game, it was terrible at the end game. Fast forward 50 years and the […]

AI for Wireless

by joanna goodrich in Engineering, Engineering News

This is a sponsored article brought to you by MathWorks. The evolution of mobile wireless technology, from 3G/4G to 5G, and introduction of Industry 4.0, have resulted in the ever-increasing complexity of wireless systems design. Wireless networks have also become more difficult to manage due to requirements necessitating optimal sharing of valuable resources to expanding […]

AI Language Models Are Struggling to “Get” Math

by Dan Garisto in Engineering, Engineering News

If computers are good at anything, they are good at math. So it may come as a surprise that after much struggling, top machine-learning researchers have recently made breakthroughs in teaching computers math. Over the past year, researchers from the University of California, Berkeley, OpenAI, and Google have made leaps and bounds in teaching language […]

AI Can Offer Insight Into Who Responds to Antidepressants

by michelle hampson in Biomedical, Engineering, Engineering News

This article is part of our exclusive IEEE Journal Watch series in partnership with IEEE Xplore. Depression is an all-too-common psychiatric condition that can profoundly affect a person’s well-being. While there is a huge range of medications available to treat depression, many people don’t respond to the first or even second medications they are prescribed. […]

Machine Learning Shaking Up Hard Sciences, Too

by Clarivate in Engineering, Engineering News

Particle physicists have long been early adopters—if not inventors—of tech from email to the internet. It’s not surprising, then, that as early as 1997, researchers were training computer models to tag particles in the messy jets created during collisions. Since then these models have chugged along, growing steadily more competent—though not to everyone’s delight. “I […]

AI’s Grandmaster Status Overshadows Chess Scandal

by philip e. ross in Engineering, Engineering News

Last week Magnus Carlsen, the world chess champion, directly accused Hans Niemann, a U.S. grandmaster, of cheating during their game at the Sinquefield Cup, in St. Louis, Mo. He thus made plain an accusation he had been hinting at for weeks. Carlsen has so far provided no evidence to back up his charge, nor has […]

Bring Physics-Based AI Into Your Research With NVIDIA Modulus

by philip e. ross in Engineering, Engineering News

High-fidelity simulations in science and engineering are widely used in industrial, seismic, weather/climate, and life sciences applications. However, traditional simulations remain computationally expensive and impractical for real time applications. They are discretization dependent, meaning they do not easily assimilate either measured or synthetic data from various sources. Due to rapid developments in AI for science […]

First Nvidia Hopper Benchmark Tests and Other AI Milestones

by samuel k. moore in Engineering, Engineering News

It’s time for the “Olympics of machine learning” again, and if you’re tired of seeing Nvidia at the top of the podium over and over, too bad. At least this time, the GPU powerhouse put a new contender into the mix, its Hopper GPU, which delivered as much as 4.5 times the performance of its […]
