AI-based risk prediction provides fresh optimism for timely intervention in pancreatic cancer.

MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) scientists, in collaboration with Limor Appelbaum, a scientist in the Department of Radiation Oncology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC), have developed two machine-learning models for the early detection of pancreatic cancer. The two models PRISM and the logistic regression model both surpassed current diagnostic methods.…

The role of symmetry in assisting machine learning processes.

In 2021, while studying differential equations, MIT PhD student Behrooz Tahmasebi discovered a possible connection between Weyl’s law — a mathematical formula used to measure the complexity of data contained within frequencies such as a drum or guitar string — and computer science. He hypothesized that the application of a specific version of the law…

Empowering individuals facing challenges with the utilization of Artificial Intelligence.

In 2010, Media Lab students at MIT Karthik Dinakar and Birago Jones began working on a project to help content moderation teams of companies like Twitter and YouTube. They developed an AI model to identify sensitive posts, but soon realized that the terminology and language used by some users was overlooked by the model. Challenged…

“We provide an alternative venue for learning.”

Jospin Hassan, a resident of Dzaleka Refugee Camp in Malawi, realized the lack of educational opportunities in his environment, particularly in cutting-edge fields like data science and artificial intelligence that can offer employment opportunities and solutions to local challenges. This led him to establish his organization, ADAI Circle, after he earned a spot in the…

Startup hastens advancements towards computing at the speed of light.

As traditional semiconductor technologies approach their physical limits, the demand for computing power continues to rise, largely driven by the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence (AI). Addressing this conundrum, Lightmatter, a company founded by three MIT alumni, has developed pioneering computing technology that harnesses the properties of light to bolster data processing and transport. Lightmatter’s…

Improving software testing through the application of generative AI.

Generative AI is being recognized for its capacity to produce both text and images. Establishment and application of generative AI to produce realistic synthetic data about various scenarios can assist businesses to improve services, reroute planes, or upgrading software platforms, especially in cases where tangible-world data is scarce or sensitive. For the preceding three years, a…
