Researchers at Miguel Hernández University (UMH) in Spain have successfully tested a new generation of visual neuroprosthesis capable of bidirectional communication with the cerebral cortex, enabling a more natural and functional artificial vision. This technology, developed at the UMH (Spain), represents a crucial step toward achieving more natural and functional artificial vision, holding immense potential to improve the quality of life, mobility, and autonomy of people who are blind.

Shanghai Jiao Tong University researchers have developed a data-driven method to recognize the coordinated intentions of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarms.

By combining a simplified flight motion model with an artificial neural network, the approach can predict swarm behavior early and accurately—advancing aerial surveillance and autonomous defense systems.

The innovation features of this research are: Treating a UAV swarm as a single intelligent entity and combining the Dubins motion model with an artificial neural network to achieve early and highly accurate intention recognition of coordinated swarm behaviors.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and “protein language” models can speed the design of monoclonal antibodies that prevent or reduce the severity of potentially life-threatening viral infections, according to a multi-institutional study led by researchers at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

When scientists make the thin metal films used in electronics, optics, and quantum technologies, they usually spend months tinkering with the temperature, composition and timing of the process, hoping to land on just the right recipe. Now, researchers at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (UChicago PME) have built a “self-driving” lab system that does this work on its own, using robotics and artificial intelligence to decide the next best step without waiting for a human.

In a new study published in Molluscan Research, Harvard researchers formally describe a new species of deep-sea limpet discovered during the 2023 E/V Nautilus expedition near the Johnston Atoll.
