Nuclear physicists have found a new way to use the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC)—a particle collider at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory—to see the shape and details inside atomic nuclei. The method relies on particles of light that surround gold ions as they speed around the collider and a new type […]
Researchers from the University of California San Diego School of Medicine and Rady Children’s Institute for Genomic Medicine describe a method for teaching a computer how to spot mosaic mutations using an artificial intelligence approach termed “deep learning.” The post New Computer Program ‘Learns’ to Identify Mosaic Mutations That Cause Disease appeared first on HPCwire.
UNSW Sydney engineers have discovered a new way of precisely controlling single electrons nestled in quantum dots that run logic gates. The new mechanism is also less bulky and requires fewer parts, which could prove essential to making large-scale silicon quantum computers a reality. The post New Spin Control Method Brings Billion-Qubit Quantum Chips Closer […]
Understanding protein interactions is key to innumerable fields – including, notably, drug design. Now, researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed a machine learning tool to predict interactions between multiple proteins, paving the way for easier identification of drug targets for antibiotics and therapeutics. The post Summit Supercomputer, Deep Learning Power Protein Interaction […]
When it comes to how fast artificial intelligence (AI) models can continue to grow, the sky is not the limit; system design is. As researchers continue to push boundaries with conversational AI, computer vision, recommender systems, and other workloads, AI models advancing toward hundreds of trillions of parameters may soon be commonplace. The post How […]
A discovery by scientists led by Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), on how electrons can be controlled at very low temperatures, suggests a way for addressing this problem and developing more robust and accurate quantum computers.

The integral role genomics played in combating the COVID-19 pandemic brought this field to the forefront of the public’s mind as new variants were continually announced. Genomics enabled near real-time monitoring of the spread of the virus as well as estimating vaccine efficacy. As home tests have supplanted surveillance testing, decreasing access to virus samples, […]
A team of scientists led from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) has trained artificial intelligence (AI) on data from simulated clusters of galaxies, in which the composition of all the components is known. This AI went on to predict a mass for the real-world Coma Cluster of galaxies that agrees with those from earlier, more human-labor-intensive […]
Researchers at Princeton found that a material known as a topological insulator, made from the elements bismuth and bromine, exhibit specialized quantum behaviors normally seen only under extreme experimental conditions of high pressures and temperatures near absolute zero. The finding opens up a new range of possibilities for the development of efficient quantum technologies, such […]
Supercomputer simulations have helped scientists reveal in a bilayer moiré system a new species of an electronic phenomenon called an exciton, which is an electrically neutral quasiparticle, yet one that can carry energy and consists of an electron and electron ‘hole’ that can be created for example by light impinging certain semiconductors and other materials.
