Whole genome sequencing of tumour cells could help predict the prognosis of a patient’s cancer and offer clues to identify the most effective treatment, suggests an international study publi... Read more
A machine learning algorithm can detect signs of anxiety and depression in the speech patterns of young children, potentially providing a fast and easy way of diagnosing conditions that are... Read more
Computers operate self-driving cars, pick friends’ faces out of photos on Facebook, and are learning to take on jobs typically entrusted only to human experts. Researchers from the Universit... Read more
Smarter, faster algorithm cuts number of steps to solve problems What if a large class of algorithms used today — from the algorithms that help us avoid traffic to the algorithms that... Read more
The researchers found that machine learning – the science of getting computers to learn over time without human intervention – is as accurate as a team of child and adolescent psychiatrists,... Read more
Carnegie Mellon University scientists can now use brain activation patterns to identify complex thoughts, such as, “The witness shouted during the trial.” This latest research le... Read more
This latest research led by CMU’s Marcel Just builds on the pioneering use of machine learning algorithms with brain imaging technology to “mind read.” The findings indicate that... Read more
The words we use and our writing styles can reveal information about our preferences, thoughts, emotions and behaviours. Using this information, a new study from the University of Eastern Fi... Read more
Machine learning has come of age in public health reporting according to researchers from the Regenstrief Institute and Indiana University School of Informatics and Computing at Indiana Univ... Read more
Technique robustly identified characteristic gene expression patterns in response to antibiotics, low oxygen conditions A powerful new machine-learning technique can be applied to large data... Read more
New system enables pattern-recognition systems to convey what they learn to humans. Computers are good at identifying patterns in huge data sets. Humans, by contrast, are good at inferring p... Read more
