(Phys.org)—Yet another flavor of surveillance technology belongs to devices that can not only eyeball but perform "activity forecasting." At Carnegie Mellon, the Mind's Eye program is creating intelligent software that ...
Most artificial intelligence (AI) systems try to replicate biological mechanisms and behaviors observed in nature. One key example of this is electronic synapses (e-synapses), which try to reproduce junctions between nerve ...
As the number of hacks and security breaches rapidly climbs, scientists say there may be a way to make a truly unhackable network by using the laws of quantum physics.
