How a horse whisperer can help engineers build better robots
New research shows us that age-old interactions between people and their horses can teach us something about building robots designed to improve our lives.
A power-efficient engine that can disentangle the visual attributes of objects
Most humans are innately able to identify the individual attributes of sensory stimuli, such as objects they are seeing, sounds they are hearing, and so on. While artificial intelligence (AI) tools have become increasingly better at recognizing specific objects in images or other stimuli, they are often unable to disentangle their individual attributes (e.g., their …

LayerNAS: Neural architecture search in polynomial complexity
Posted by Yicheng Fan and Dana Alon, Software Engineers, Google Research Every byte and every operation matters when trying to build a faster model, especially if the model is to run on-device. Neural architecture search (NAS) algorithms design sophisticated model architectures by searching through a larger model-space than what is possible manually. Different NAS algorithms, …

Run your local machine learning code as Amazon SageMaker Training jobs with minimal code changes
We recently introduced a new capability in the Amazon SageMaker Python SDK that lets data scientists run their machine learning (ML) code authored in their preferred integrated developer environment (IDE) and notebooks along with the associated runtime dependencies as Amazon SageMaker training jobs with minimal code changes to the experimentation done locally. Data scientists typically …

China’s Metaverse Is All About Work
The government wants the metaverse to be less about having fun and shopping and more about health care and industry.
Jellyfish-like robots could one day clean up the world’s oceans
Roboticists have developed a jellyfish-inspired underwater robot with which they hope one day to collect waste from the bottom of the ocean. The almost noise-free prototype can trap objects underneath its body without physical contact, thereby enabling safe interactions in delicate environments such as coral reefs. Jellyfish-Bot could become an important tool for environmental remediation.
A model that uses human prompts and sketches to generate realistic fashion images
Artificial intelligence (AI) recently started making its way into many creative industries, for instance, in the form of tools for digital artists, architects, interior designers and image editors. In these contexts, AI can automate processes that are tedious or time consuming, while also potentially inspiring artists and facilitating their creative process.
