NASA begins integrating 'nervous system' for Roman Space Telescope

Spacedaily.com 

Greenbelt MD (SPX) Aug 24, 2023 - NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope team has begun integrating and testing the spacecraft's electrical cabling, or harness, which enables different parts of the observatory to communicate with one another. Additionally, the harness provides power and helps the central computer monitor the observatory's function via an array of sensors. This brings the mission a step closer to surveying billions of cosmic objects and untangling mysteries like dark energy following its launch by May 2027. Читать дальше...

AI models are powerful, but are they biologically plausible?

Spacedaily.com 

Boston MA (SPX) Aug 17, 2023 - Artificial neural networks, ubiquitous machine-learning models that can be trained to complete many tasks, are so called because their architecture is inspired by the way biological neurons process information in the human brain.

About six years ago, scientists discovered a new type of more powerful neural network model known as a transformer. These models can achieve unprecedented performance, such as by generating text from prompts with near-human-like accuracy. Читать дальше...

AI helps robots manipulate objects with their whole bodies

Spacedaily.com 

Boston MA (SPX) Aug 25, 2023 - Imagine you want to carry a large, heavy box up a flight of stairs. You might spread your fingers out and lift that box with both hands, then hold it on top of your forearms and balance it against your chest, using your whole body to manipulate the box.

Humans are generally good at whole-body manipulation, but robots struggle with such tasks. To the robot, each spot where the box could touch any point on the carrier's fingers, arms, and torso represents a contact event that it must reason about. Читать дальше...
