The National Weather Service classified this windstorm as an EF-1 tornado, while two smaller ones, categorized as EF-0, also made their way through the area. The tornadoes left a trail of damage, i
Traffic forecasting on freeways has long relied on deep learning models, especially graph neural networks that blend graph theory with deep learning. These models are great at learning complex time and space patterns. However, traditional graph convolutional networks (GCNs) sometimes struggle with l

Ever wondered how stress can change how we learn? Scientists have found that when we're stressed, our brains react in different ways. They studied mice to see how chronic stress affects a part of the brain called the hippocampus, which is key for learning and memory. This area has different sections
