“White Night of Technology”: How to Ensure Cybersecurity and Teach Neural Networks to See
…Neural networks: how to teach a computer to see Scientists have been pondering this question since mid-20th century. In 1943, Warren McCulloch and Walter Pitts proposed a model of a neuron (a single cell of a neural network) to be used for machine learning. 15 years later Frank Rosenblatt showcased a simple neural n
New Metamaterial-Enhanced MRI Technology Successfully Tested on Human Subjects
… subjects", says Rita Schmidt, the leading author of the paper and researcher at the Department of Radiology of Leiden University Medical Center. The metasurface, placed between a patient and the receive coils, enhances the signal-to-noise ratio in the region of interest. Comparison of MRI scans with and without the use of metasurface "This ratio limit…

Art&Science: How Big Data Becomes Art
…DeepDream project is a good example of how AI algorithms become an artistic tool. Initially, the program was created to help scientists and engineers understand what a neural network “sees” when they show it an image. Later, the project was used for creating abstract or psychedelic art. Another example of an art project on data visualization is Liquid~Do - an inte…
