Researchers have been using special maps called saliency maps to understand why certain AI models make specific decisions about glaucoma. They trained these AI models, called convolutional neural networks, to diagnose glaucoma using pictures of the eye's fundus, which is the inner lining of the eye.

Scientists from 15 labs around the world teamed up to understand how the SARS-CoV-2 antigenicity—the way our body's antibodies recognize the virus—is affected by different lab practices. This global study used samples from the World Health Organization (WHO) and tools like live virus or pseudoviruse
Picture a future where mechanical stresses can be monitored instantly, just like taking a quick snap with a digital camera. Scientists are working on this by developing AI-driven models that simplify complex simulation data. They call this a Reduced-Order Model (ROM). This ROM is like a virtual stre
Let's think about the tricky ethics of using AI in music. We're talking about how AI tools might carry some unfair baggage from the past. Take Holly+, for instance, a special AI that makes music like its creator, Holly Herndon. Shouldn't we question how it works and what it implies? We can learn fro
