Liquid-coupled microscopic particles can perform reservoir computing, predict chaotic signals and detect subtle anomalies with low hardware demands.
Researchers at the Universities of Konstanz and Stuttgart have demonstrated a new approach to computation: a computer made from a few hundred microscopic particles oscillating in a liquid. Instead of ...
The playbook: Everybody’s talking about the grid operator’s connect-and-manage framework. How it works: Resources don’t have to wait for the transmission upgrades required for “full deliverability.” ...
Abstract: Designing modern antennas requires balancing several conflicting factors, such as peak sidelobe level (PSLL), aperture efficiency (AE), beam pointing error ...
Abstract: An unsupervised machine learning method, referred to as the physics-aware generative adversarial network (PAGAN), is proposed for synthesizing a desired beam pattern by optimizing and ...
In January 1993, a gunman murdered seven people in a fast-food restaurant in Palatine, a suburb of Chicago. In his dual roles as an administrative executive and spokesperson for the police department, ...
