Imagine not being able to quickly detect a stroke. It can lead to serious problems, like permanent brain damage or even death. This is where deep learning (DL) and machine learning (ML) models come in. They can help spot strokes early, making treatments more effective and reducing serious long-term
Newly revealed photos show then-Vice President Joe Biden meeting some of his son Hunter Biden’s Chinese business partners during an official trip to China in 2013.

Imagine you're living in a rapidly growing city in Northwest China. With more people and industries, wastewater treatment becomes a big deal. This is where smart technology steps in. Researchers are using something called a Random Forest Regression model to predict water quality and reduce carbon em
Scientists have found a clever way to boost the superconducting powers of certain metal borocarbides. They started with a compound called Ca2B4C4, which didn't show much superconducting promise. But by swapping out calcium (Ca) for sodium (Na), they significantly increased the electronic density at
Divorce is a common issue in many countries, affecting nearly half of all marriages. It's not just a legal process; it has a deep impact on mental health and daily life. Researchers used a dataset called the 'divorce predictor dataset' to create a tool that can tell apart married and divorced people
Imagine a group of scientists from Taiwan and mainland China working together on a fascinating project. Since 1996, they've been exploring the world of neutrinos and astro-particle physics. Now, they're gearing up for an exciting experiment at Taiwan's Nuclear Power Station II. The plan? Use a 600 k
Ever wondered why language models often struggle with Taiwanese Traditional Chinese? The nuances of this language have long been ignored. Enter Taiwan LLM—a unique Large Language Model specifically designed for Taiwan's Traditional Chinese. By using a massive pretraining corpus and instruction-finet
Taiwan’s president, Lai Ching-te, recently led a unique exercise. This wasn’t a typical military drill. Instead, it was a “tabletop” simulation. It involved not just the army but also government agencies and local groups. Why? To test how they’d handle potential escalations from China. You might be
You might think North Koreans are far from Ukraine, but the truth is, they're right in the middle of it. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy recently said that around 12, 000 North Korean soldiers are fighting alongside Russian troops in the Kursk region. The thing is, these soldiers aren't bein
The Sacramento Kings have made a change at the top, firing head coach Mike Brown. This decision comes after they've struggled early in the season, with a record of 13-18 and a five-game losing streak. Brown had been with the team for about half of his third season. Despite leading the Kings to break
