Creating smarter, more accurate artificial intelligence systems requires a hybrid human-machine approach, according to researchers. In a new study, they present a new mathematical model that can improve performance by combining human and algorithmic predictions and confidence scores. Read More
Computer engineers have developed virtual eyes that simulate how humans look at the world accurately enough for companies to train virtual reality and augmented reality programs. Called EyeSyn for short, the program will help developers create applications for the rapidly…
Researchers have designed a malleable robotic arm that can be guided into shape by a person using augmented reality (AR) goggles. Read More
Posted by Joel Shor, Staff Software Engineer, Google Research In recent years, we have seen dramatic improvements on lexical tasks such as automatic speech recognition (ASR). However, machine systems still struggle to understand paralinguistic aspects — such as tone, emotion,…
Researchers have created tiny bug-inspired robots that can carry out tasks in hard-to-reach spaces and inhospitable environments. Read More
Creating synthetic life could be easily within our grasp soon based on a comparison with the evolution of computer chips. Computer programming and gene synthesis appear to share little in common. But according to an expert, leaps forward in technology…
Posted by Maxwell Bileschi, Staff Software Engineer and Lucy Colwell, Research Scientist, Google Research, Brain Team Proteins are essential molecules found in all living things. They play a central role in our bodies’ structure and function, and they are also…
Posted by Bowen Zhang, Student Researcher and Jiahui Yu, Senior Research Scientist, Google Research, Brain Team Action recognition has become a major focus area for the research community because many applications can benefit from improved modeling, such as video retrieval,…
To understand how hearing loss impacts people, researchers study people’s ability to recognize speech, and hearing aid algorithms are often used to improve human speech recognition. Researchers explore a human speech recognition model based on machine learning and deep neural…
