A team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has found that machine learning (ML) models can effectively mimic and understand the human auditory system, potentially helping to improve technologies such as cochlear implants, hearing aids and brain-machine interfaces.
These findings are based on the largest-ever study of deep neural networks used to perform auditory…
Photolithography is a commonly used manufacturing process that manipulates light to etch features onto surfaces, creating computer chips and optical devices like lenses. However, minute deviations in the process often result in these devices not matching their original designs. To bridge this design-manufacturing gap, a team from MIT and the Chinese University of Hong Kong…
