AI system makes models like DALL-E 2 more creative
Researchers develop a new method that uses multiple models to create more complex images with better understanding.
Collaborative machine learning that preserves privacy
Researchers increase the accuracy and efficiency of a machine-learning method that safeguards user data.
MIT students contribute to success of historic fusion experiment
Students are part of large team that achieved fusion ignition for the first time in a laboratory.
AI that can learn the patterns of human language
On its own, a new machine-learning model discovers linguistic rules that often match up with those created by human experts.
MIT’s solar car team wins American Solar Challenge for the second year in a row
The team credits strategy and team building for keeping the lead in a tight race.
Taking a magnifying glass to data center operations
Lincoln Laboratory Supercomputing Center dataset aims to accelerate AI research into managing and optimizing high-performance computing systems.
Artificial intelligence model can detect Parkinson’s from breathing patterns
An MIT-developed device with the appearance of a Wi-Fi router uses a neural network to discern the presence and severity of one of the fastest-growing neurological diseases in the world.
