For over a century, we’ve told ourselves a comfortable evolutionary story about our species. Neanderthals were hanging around ...

Particles as different as soap bubbles and ball bearings can be made to arrange themselves in exactly the same way, according ...

A single mathematical model can explain the pattern of folds seen on the brains of a range of primates, from bush babies to macaques to humans. Bruno Mota at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro ...

Currently, there are several hypotheses surrounding the disappearance of Neanderthals. While they all have at least some ...

A Rochester Institute of Technology mathematician helped develop a new modeling method to explore the relationship between the Earth’s atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) and surface temperature over ...

Last week, Google Research held an online workshop on the conceptual understanding of deep learning. The workshop, which featured presentations by award-winning computer scientists and neuroscientists ...

AI tools are increasingly being used to track and monitor us both online and in-person, yet their effectiveness comes with big risks. Computer scientists have developed a new mathematical model which ...

New research has identified the processes that underpin the trajectories of microplastics below the ocean surface. The authors analyzed how biofouling -- the accumulation of algae on the surface of ...

Researchers at the University of Bristol in the U.K. are exploring how mathematical modeling might be used in the development and use of blood-based biomarkers for brain tumors. The development of a ...
