Biodiversity researchers tested vision systems on how well they could retrieve relevant nature images. More advanced models performed well on simple queries but struggled with more research-specific prompts.
Five MIT faculty and staff, along with five alumni, are honored for electrical engineering and computer science advances.
A small fleet of autonomous surface vessels forms a large sonar array for finding submerged objects.
The “PRoC3S” method helps an LLM create a viable action plan by testing each step in a simulation. This strategy could eventually aid in-home robots to complete more ambiguous chore requests.
In a recent commentary, a team from MIT, Equality AI, and Boston University highlights the gaps in regulation for AI models and non-AI algorithms in health care.
MIT CSAIL director and EECS professor named a co-recipient of the honor for her robotics research, which has expanded our understanding of what a robot can be.
Researchers develop “ContextCite,” an innovative method to track AI’s source attribution and detect potential misinformation.
Researchers propose a simple fix to an existing technique that could help artists, designers, and engineers create better 3D models.
The technique could make AI systems better at complex tasks that involve variability.
The Tree-D Fusion system integrates generative AI and genus-conditioned algorithms to create precise simulation-ready models of 600,000 existing urban trees across North America.
MIT and IBM researchers are creating linkage mechanisms to innovate human-AI kinematic engineering.
By sidestepping the need for costly interventions, a new method could potentially reveal gene regulatory programs, paving the way for targeted treatments.
Researchers show that even the best-performing large language models don’t form a true model of the world and its rules, and can thus fail unexpectedly on similar tasks.
Researchers in the MIT Initiative on Combatting Systemic Racism are building an open data repository to advance research on racial inequity in domains like policing, housing, and health care.
MIT engineers’ algorithm may have wide impact, from forecasting climate to projecting population growth to designing efficient aircraft.
