A new model to produce more natural synthesized speech
Recent technological advances are enabling the development of computational tools that could significantly improve the quality of life of individuals with disabilities or sensory impairments. These...
An approach to enable both locomotion and manipulation in a snake-inspired robot
Snake-inspired robots could have various advantages over conventional wheeled or legged robots. For instance, slithering robots can adapt the shape of their body, enter narrow spaces, and move...
Extending the lifespan of lithium-metal batteries using a fluorinated ether diluent
The design of battery technologies with increasingly longer lifespans could help to meet the growing needs of the electronics and automotive industry. Lithium (Li) batteries are the most widely used...
A method to generate predictor circuits for the classification of tabular data
Deep learning techniques have become increasingly advanced over the past few years, reaching human-level accuracy on a wide range of tasks, including image classification and natural language...
The tunable coupling of two distant superconducting spin qubits
Quantum computers, computing devices that leverage the principles of quantum mechanics, could outperform classical computing on some complex optimization and processing tasks. In quantum computers,...
A method to mitigate hallucinations in large language models
Large language models (LLMs), artificial neural networks-based architectures that can process, generate and manipulate texts in various human languages, have recently become increasingly widespread....
Male and female mice exhibit different empathic behaviors to others’ pain
Social interactions are multi-faceted experiences that entail understanding the emotional states of others and responding appropriately. Neuroscientists and psychologists have been studying social...
Tackling long-range malware detection tasks using holographic global convolutional networks
Over the past few decades, cyber-attackers have devised increasingly sophisticated malware that can disrupt the functioning of computer systems or grant them access to sensitive data. The...
A model outlining the microscopic origin of black hole entropy
Black holes are intriguing astronomical objects that have a gravitational pull so strong that it prevents any object and even light from escaping. While black holes have been the topic of numerous...
Researchers realize multiphoton electron emission with non-classical light
Strong field quantum optics is a rapidly emerging research topic, which merges elements of non-linear photoemission rooted in strong field physics with the well-established realm of quantum optics....
