Engineers create ‘smart’ system to prevent future infrastructure disasters

When the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland, collapsed on March 26, 2024, engineers and city managers around the U.S. and world scrambled to assess the safety of infrastructure in their communities. Michigan State University researchers have developed a “deploy-and-forget” system that combines sensors with artificial intelligence, or AI, to assess the health of …

Upgraded from 3090 to 5090… local video generation is again a thing now!

Wan2.1 720p fp8_e5m2, fast_fp16_accumulation, sage attention, torch compile, TeaCache, no block swap.

Scaling Up Reinforcement Learning for Traffic Smoothing: A 100-AV Highway Deployment

Training Diffusion Models with Reinforcement Learning We deployed 100 reinforcement learning (RL)-controlled cars into rush-hour highway traffic to smooth congestion and reduce fuel consumption for everyone. Our goal is to tackle “stop-and-go” waves, those frustrating slowdowns and speedups that usually have no clear cause but lead to congestion and significant energy waste. To train efficient …
