Scientists discover new ‘cure for baldness’ as they investigate ’caveman genes‘

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, evolution

Humans have the genes to grow hair all over their bodies like chimpanzees but evolution has disabled them, according to new findings which could lead to new ways of regrowing hair after balding The discovery of “caveman genes” could help scientists come up with a new cure for baldness.

There are two fundamentally different cell types in the brain, neurons and glial cells. The latter, for example, insulate the “wiring” of nerve cells or guarantee optimal working conditions for them.

DeepMind AI invents faster algorithms to solve tough maths puzzles

Posted by in categories: information science, mathematics, robotics/AI

Researchers at DeepMind in London have shown that artificial intelligence (AI) can find shortcuts in a fundamental type of mathematical calculation, by turning the problem into a game and then leveraging the machine-learning techniques that another of the company’s AIs used to beat human players in games such as Go and chess.

The AI discovered algorithms that break decades-old records for computational efficiency, and the team’s findings, published on 5 October in Nature1, could open up new paths to faster computing in some fields.

“It is very impressive,” says Martina Seidl, a computer scientist at Johannes Kepler University in Linz, Austria. “This work demonstrates the potential of using machine learning for solving hard mathematical problems.”

Students Build Innovative Solution to Stop Drivers From Falling Asleep at the Wheel

Posted by in categories: education, transportation

I n 2017, Andhra Pradesh witnessed two deadly bus accidents after the driver fell asleep at the wheel. One was a tourist bus and the other a school bus carrying children and teachers.

This news concerned Pradeep Varma (22), a student of Gayatri Vidya Parishad College of Engineering, Visakhapatnam. It left him wondering why there was no technology in place to prevent such accidents.

“After doing some research, I realised that while there is technology to detect external crashes and predict them, there aren’t many prevalent ones to detect a driver falling asleep,” says Pradeep, in an interview with The Better India.

Can Technology Reveal Your Inner Emotions?

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

This post is also available in: he עברית (Hebrew)

New research may have vital applications in areas such as human-intelligence analytics. Traditionally, emotion detection has relied on the assessment of visible signals such as facial expressions, speech, body gestures or eye movements. However, these methods can be unreliable as they do not effectively capture an individual’s internal emotions. A novel artificial intelligence approach based on wireless signals could help to reveal our inner emotions.

The research from Queen Mary University of London demonstrates the use of radio waves to measure heart rate and breathing signals and predict how someone is feeling even in the absence of any other visual cues, such as facial expressions. It demonstrates how to apply a neural network to decipher emotions gathered with transmitting radio antenna.
