Artificial intelligence better than physicists at designing quantum science experiments

Posted by in categories: particle physics, quantum physics, robotics/AI, science

Perhaps physicists should leave human intuition at the laboratory door when designing quantum experiments too.

An Australian crew enlisted the help of a neural network — a type of artificial intelligence — to optimise the way they capture super-cold atoms.

Usually, physicists smoothly tune lasers and magnetic fields to gradually coax atoms into a cloud, according to study co-author Ben Buchler from the Australian National University.

Brain Meets Machine: The Art and Science of Brain-Computer Interfaces

Posted by in categories: computing, mathematics, neuroscience, science

Current brain-computer interface (BCI) research helps people who have lost the ability to affect their environment in ways many of us take for granted. Future BCIs may go beyond motor function, perhaps aiding with memory recall, decision-making, and other cognitive functions.


Have you ever studied a foreign language and wished you could upload the vocabulary lists directly into your brain so that you could retain them? Would you like to do mental math with the speed and accuracy of a calculator? Do you want a literal photographic memory? Well, these dreams are still the stuff of science fiction, but the brave new world of brain-computer interfaces, or BCI, is well on its way to making technological miracles of this sort a reality.

The story of BCI begins with the discovery of electrical signals emitted by the brain. In 1924, German scientist Hans Berger recorded the first electroencephalogram, or EEG, by placing electrodes under a person’s scalp. Although his research was at first met with derision, a whole new way to study the brain was born from his work. It is now well accepted that the human brain emits electric signals at a variety of frequencies currently known as brainwaves.

‘Journalologists’ use scientific methods to study academic publishing. Is their work improving science?

Posted by in category: science

Publication science is struggling to keep up. “Research in this area is not fast-moving,” says Sara Schroter, a senior researcher at The BMJ. In a recent Nature opinion piece, Rennie called for rigorous studies to demonstrate the pros and cons of many new developments, including open peer review and preprints. In JAMA, he and Executive Managing Editor Annette Flanagin lamented that few people are studying “important issues and threats to the scientific enterprise, such as reproducibility, fake peer review, and predatory journals.”


Decades spent studying peer review, publication bias, and more have challenged the status quo, but journalologists say they have a long way to go.
