Think saying um and uh makes you sound unprepared? These tiny hesitation words play an important role in how we think, speak, and communicate.

Language understanding is inherently multimodal. Whether we read, listen, or converse, our brains go beyond words to draw on visual scenes, prosody, prior ...

Abstract: In this brief, the encoding-decoding-based state estimation problem is investigated for a class of state-saturated systems under buffer-aided mechanism where the wireless communication is ...

It’s not science fiction: scientists are using machine learning algorithms to decipher how animals communicate and what they’re saying. A new collaboration between Project CETI (Cetacean Translation ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the set-membership state estimation problem for a class of networked time-varying systems with multi-rate measurements over half-duplex relay communication networks.

Kendra Pierre-Louis: For Scientific American’s Science Quickly, I’m Kendra Pierre-Louis, in for Rachel Feltman. With some estimates placing the number of Hawaiian monk seals left in the wild at just 1 ...

Some Dell and HP laptop owners have been befuddled by their machines’ inability to play HEVC/H.265 content in web browsers, despite their machines’ processors having integrated decoding support.

After poring over recordings from sperm whales in the Caribbean, UC Berkeley linguist Gasper Begus had an unlikely breakthrough. According to a new study from Begus and his colleagues with Project ...

For centuries, humans have drawn a line between themselves and other species, initially claiming that other animals couldn’t feel pain. Science proved they could. Then the argument shifted: Animals ...

Computational optics represents a shift in approach where optical hardware and computational algorithms are designed to work together, enabling imaging capabilities that surpass those of traditional ...
