Major milestone reached in digital Cuneiform studies: researchers from Mainz, Marburg, and Würzburg present an innovative tool that offers many new possibilities.

Researchers at Imperial are to develop technologies to enable people living with dementia to live independently for longer.

A research consortium involving the TU Ilmenau has just launched a project to enable the early detection of lung cancer. With the help of a mobile respiratory diagnostic device, the human exhaled gas is to be analyzed with the aid of AI in order to detect signs of lung cancer earlier and more gently than before.

It takes ten times more electricity for ChatGPT to respond to a prompt than for Google to carry out a standard search.

Artificial intelligence, a field known for its expanding uses across society, is also increasingly notorious for the massive amount of energy it needs to function.

National Graphene Institute (NGI) at The University of Manchester is marking its 10th anniversary, celebrating a decade of groundbreaking research.

Artificial intelligence (AI) plays a role in virtually every aspect of our lives, from self-driving cars to smart vacuum cleaners, to computer models that can predict the course of an epidemic.

Productivity refers to the relationship between the products or services a company produces and the resources used to create them.

Home-based cycling game developed at Bath launches on the Meta Quest Store. AI and VR technology keep costs down and motivate exercisers to work harder.

TU/e PhD candidate Lotte Ewals involves patients in her research on earlier detection of pancreatic cancer.

The latest advance in wearable robotic technology promises to solve a 200-year-old problem by revolutionising the fit of prosthetic limbs. The new material, 'Roliner,' offers amputees the power to change the shape, volume, and stiffness of the liner that is used to attach a prosthetic limb's socket to a residual leg.

What tools should students obtain during their economics education? Additionally, what objectives does the Faculty of Economics at Università della Svizzera italiana (USI) aim to achieve to meet the

Trust in AI models is about more than just technical performance - ethical principles and human values are equally important. Trust is, at its core, a deeply human phenomenon. When we step onto a bus, it's the driver we trust to bring us safely to our destination - but what about the bus? Can we place the same trust in it as we do in people? Or is all we ask of technology that it functions reliably? And what about when artificial intelligence takes the wheel? "Absolutely.

From bridges and tunnels to railways, Switzerland has always invested heavily in the upkeep of its infrastructure.

Conducted by CNRS researchers 1 , an unprecedented study on the combined use of sunscreen and an insect repellent that is among the best selling in France during summer concludes that UV 2 protection decreases after application of the mixture.

At this year's Hannover trade fair, Technische Universität Ilmenau is presenting two innovative technologies for the autonomous driving of the future and two pioneering solutions for energy-efficient and intelligent mobile networks.

Flawed data, skewed results: how stereotypes in datasets affect artificial intelligence, impacting society.

Digitalization and artificial intelligence are also finding their way into the construction industry.

In order to guarantee the security of supply of our future energy system, we need not only an expansion of renewable energies, but also sophisticated control mechanisms that efficiently manage production, distribution and consumption.

Researchers have advanced a decades-old challenge in the field of organic semiconductors, opening new possibilities for the future of electronics.

The robots are coming! But are they also coming for our jobs? The short answer is yes, but not necessarily in the way we imagine.
