Researchers at Eötvös Loránd University are generating realistic drone footage of landscapes from even hundreds of years ago with the help of artificial intelligence. With their method, presented in the journal Land, the authors aim to introduce a new tool that helps to better understand the original functioning of a landscape and can support strategic decisions about current land use — for example, implementing water retention solutions in often drought-stricken areas such as the Hungarian Great Plain.

Modern manufacturing requires advanced management methods, and manufacturing data analytics (MDA) has emerged as a key tool to help manufacturers anticipate and respond to rapidly changing conditions. However, despite its clear benefits, MDA adoption remains low due to a variety of challenges. In a new study, researchers developed a comprehensive issue set for MDA implementation (CISM) that can help manufacturers proactively identify and resolve these issues, paving the way for broader MDA adoption.

Researchers have designed a new two-dimensional ferroelectric memtransistor to realize the reward-modulated spike-timing dependent plasticity in a single device for implementing the robotic recognition and tracking tasks.
