Conventional cameras in stereo mode can indeed detect objects, gauge their distance, and estimate their speeds, but they don’t have the accuracy required for fully autonomous driving. In addition, cameras do not work well at night, in fog, or in direct sunlight, and systems that use them are prone to…

At one time IBM Watson Health was featured in articles that claimed it might cure cancer. But the splashy coverage of IBM’s artificial intelligence brand aimed at the healthcare industry was maybe an instance when the hype about a particular technology -- AI -- got ahead of that technology’s actual…

You hear the terms all the time. Artificial intelligence. Neural networks. Machine learning. But even as a tech savvy consumer who might understand what those terms mean, does that mean you actually understand how a computer thinks for itself? Or how to craft an algorithm? Or what decision trees do? …

When it comes to manufacturing new lightweight, yet strong components for new passenger jets, scientists are treating the process like trying to brew the most delicious cup of coffee. By using artificial intelligence ( AI ) and machine learning, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s ( DOE ) Argonne…
