DeepMind has found a simple way to make language models reason better
Posted by Dan Kummer in categories: mathematics, robotics/AI
Logical reasoning is still a major challenge for language models. DeepMind has found a way to support reasoning tasks.
A study by Google’s AI division DeepMind shows that the order of the premises in a task has a significant impact on the logical reasoning performance of language models.
They work best when the premises are presented in the same order as they appear in the logical conclusions. According to the researchers, this is also true for mathematical problems. The researchers make the systematically generated tests available in the R-GSM benchmark for further investigation.

How a Standard Blood Test can Predict a Heart Attack
Posted by Natalie Chan in category: biotech/medical
Using the results of a standard blood test and an online tool, you can find out if you are at increased risk of having a heart attack within six months. The tool has been developed by a research group at Uppsala University in the hope of increasing patients’ motivation to change their lifestyles.
Their paper is published in the journal Nature Cardiovascular Research.
Heart attacks are the most common cause of death in the world and are increasing globally. Many high-risk people are not identified or do not take their preventive treatment.
