Let's Reflect

We're not bringing you an episode this week. We're taking some time to think about the systems we take part in and how those perpetuate anti black racism and the effects of that on the work in this field. We'd like to bring you meaningful conversations around those systems and how we...

Soil color analysis based on a RGB camera and an artificial neural network towards smart irrigation: A pilot study

Irrigation operations in agriculture are one of the largest water consumers in the world, and it has been increasing due to rising population and consequent increased demand for food. The development of advanced irrigation technologies based on modern techniques is of utmost necessity to ensure...

Spontaneous sparse learning for PCM-based memristor neural networks

Neural networks trained by backpropagation have achieved tremendous successes on numerous intelligent tasks. However, naïve gradient-based training and updating methods on memristors impede applications due to intrinsic material properties. Here, we built a 39 nm 1 Gb phase change memory (PCM)...

Spatial Mode Correction of Single Photons Using Machine Learning

Spatial modes of light constitute valuable resources for a variety of quantum technologies ranging from quantum communication and quantum imaging to remote sensing. Nevertheless, their vulnerabilities to phase distortions, induced by random media, impose significant limitations on the realistic...
