Meta, MIT, Others Test Robotic Arm in Optical AI Infrastructure
Researchers at Meta, MIT and other institutions connected servers with a dozen Nvidia GPUs with optical switches and a robotic arm, devising a new interconnect that could be used for machine learning. The fabric, called “TopoOpt,” can create network topologies on the...
Berkeley Lab Scientists Create ML Pipeline for Interpreting Large Tomography Datasets
Advances in biological imaging have given scientists unprecedented datasets with extremely high resolutions, yet data interpretation tools are working overtime to keep up. This is particularly evident in the case of cryo-electron tomograms (cryo-ET), where the samples...
Researchers find robots create jobs in long term
Industrial robots, particularly those in the automotive industry, complement human workers rather than replace them. The post Researchers find robots create jobs in long term appeared first on Robotics Business Review.
Hawk Supercomputer Powers Research on Quieter Fans, Motors
If you’ve ever been in a supercomputer datacenter, you’ll know that they don’t tend to be quiet places – but now, supercomputing is helping make some machinery hum quieter. ebm-papst, a German fan and electric motor manufacturer, is applying the Hawk supercomputer at...
Neural Networks and ‘Ghost’ Electrons Accurately Reconstruct Behavior of Quantum Systems
Predicting the properties of a molecule or material requires calculating the collective behavior of its electrons. Such predictions could one day help researchers develop new pharmaceuticals or design materials with sought-after properties such as superconductivity....
