What would you say to your favourite animal if you could finally communicate with it? Researchers around the world are now closer than ever to making that possible. With advances in machine learning ...

And it turns out he was really onto something: Today, scientists studying animal patterns still find Turing’s ideas to be remarkably effective — especially when combined with other factors that ...

A multi-institutional team of researchers led by Virginia Tech's Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC has for the first time identified specific patterns of brain chemical activity that predict ...

A figure from the research paper shows that both the model and experimental animals learned a task at a very similar pace. A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and ...

Phil Goldstein is a former web editor of the CDW family of tech magazines and a veteran technology journalist. He lives in Washington, D.C., with his wife and their animals: a dog named Brenna and two ...

Scientists are using machine learning to eavesdrop on naked mole rats, fruit bats, crows and whales — and to communicate back. Naked mole rats live in large, underground colonies and have an elaborate ...
