A Korean research team has developed the “intelligent core” of a 6G network capable of autonomous control through artificial intelligence (AI). This achievement marks the first realization of an “intelligent 6G core” in Korea and represents a significant milestone in advancing next-generation network infrastructure. Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) announced that it has successfully developed an “intelligent, service-programmable mobile core network,” a key enabling technology for the 6G era. This technology aims to realize an autonomous 6G core in which AI continuously learns and controls network operations, enabling dynamic adaptation to diverse service requirements.

A research group led by Professor Katsuhiro Ichikawa (Faculty of Health Sciences, Institute of Medical, Pharmaceutical and Health Sciences, Kanazawa University) and Professor Kaoru Tada (Faculty of Health Sciences / Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Kanazawa University Hospital) has successfully developed an ultra-high-resolution X-ray computed tomography (CT) system dedicated to extremities, achieving approximately five times higher spatial resolution than conventional X-ray CT systems (voxel size: 0.08–0.10 mm).

Explore new research from a Kelley Indianapolis professor revealing why people admire self-sacrifice—even when it doesn’t change outcomes. Discover what this instinct says about human judgment and how it shapes the way we evaluate effort, purpose, and impact.

This study reveals the spatial heterogeneity and temporal dynamics of vegetation net primary production (NPP) across the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) outer ecological barrier, and clarifies the joint impacts of vegetation features, climate and human activities on regional ecological functions.

A research team from HKU Engineering has pioneered a fundamentally new imaging strategy known as AIMED (Arbitrary illumination microscopy with encoded depth), which utilizes a sub-sampling approach. By integrating innovations in axial optical encoding with advanced computational image reconstruction, the AIMED technology enables a substantial increase in 3D imaging speed while enhancing photon safety, all with minimal additional system complexity. This breakthrough demonstrates significant advantages across efficiency, image quality, and system compatibility.
