MIT researchers developed a method that generates more accurate uncertainty measures for certain types of estimation. This could help improve the reliability of data analyses in areas like economics, epidemiology, and environmental sciences.
MIT researchers developed a new fabrication method that could enable them to stack multiple active components, like transistors and memory units, on top of an existing circuit, which would improve the energy efficiency of electronic devices.
This two-year effort develops innovative 3D-printed materials to remove excess phosphorus from freshwater systems and curb harmful algal blooms. Backed by statewide water-quality investments and prior research, the project will create durable, retrievable structures that provide a more effective, environmentally safe method for long-term nutrient removal. It also includes educational outreach to strengthen the local workforce and public awareness. The work addresses the growing threat HABs pose to ecosystems, public health, the economy and quality of life, driven largely by phosphorus from runoff and other nutrient sources.
UNC Greensboro has been selected as one of only three U.S. universities to receive a 2025 university grant from Virtualware and HTC VIVE. With the funding, UNCG, UCLA and the Illinois Institute of Technology will establish cutting-edge extended reality centers to drive innovative research, collaboration, and workforce development in their regions.
Concordia researchers found that AI can estimate a person’s age with up to ~96% accuracy using a 30-second ECG from a smartwatch, offering a privacy-respecting alternative to photo-based verification. The system works using only heart-signal patterns, reducing the need to store identifiable personal data.
