Have you ever wondered when a document on the web was created? It’s not always easy to tell, and that’s a problem. Sometimes, that little timestamp at the bottom is missing or can’t be trusted. So, scientists have come up with a clever idea: using the content of the document to figure it out. Meet
There's a lot of information hidden in the dates of documents. This data can be super helpful for tasks like finding the right document or summarizing events. The problem is, not all documents have clear dates, especially those floating around the internet. Figuring out when a document was created,
Have you ever wondered how to make power conversion more efficient? Well, meet the latest buck converter that's making waves in the tech world. This clever device uses what's called an active auxiliary resonant network to make the switching process smoother. That means it doesn't put extra strain on
Ever wondered why it takes so long to find the exact information you need? Multi-vector retrieval methods, which mix the best of both worlds from sparse and dense search techniques, are incredibly effective but slow and space-hungry. Enter CITADEL, a new way of thinking about token routing that make
Let's talk about secure enclaves. These are like safe zones in computers where sensitive programs can hide. The problem is, even these safe zones can be tricked with sneaky attacks called transient execution attacks. Full separation from the rest of the computer isn't the best idea because it slows
In just a few days, Huawei is dropping a brand-new series of phones. Can you guess what they are? The Mate 70 lineup is set to hit Chinese markets on November 26, and the hype is real. We're talking four different models here – the Mate 70, Mate 70 Pro, Mate 70 Pro+, and the top-tier Mate 70 RS Ulti
Ever wondered when you'd see Samsung's take on AR smart glasses? Well, hold onto your hats! Recent leaks from South Korea have spilled some interesting details. These glasses are expected to hit the market in the third quarter of 2025. That's just around the corner! And guess what? The initial batch
Imagine you're running a rooftop solar panel system. You need a boost converter that can handle faults smoothly. Recently, there's been a push for high-gain converters, but many lack fault-tolerant features. Now, there's a new solution: a reconfigurable boost converter designed specifically for DC m
Ever thought about how we can make sure power grids work smoothly? Scientists are finding new ways to do that using smart tech. One problem is that the rotor angle—which shows how power generators work together—can go haywire. Traditional methods don't always catch this in time. That's where a cool
Ever wondered how smart cities can get us moving more? A recent study dug into this, using data from China's Family Panel Studies from 2010 to 2020. They found that smart city construction really does make a difference in how much we exercise. The study used a special method called Difference-in-Dif
