Machine Learning Helps Scientists Peer (a Second) into the Future
Using a new type of machine learning method called next generation reservoir computing, researchers at The Ohio State University have recently found a new way to predict the behavior of spatiotemporal chaotic systems – such as changes in Earth’s weather – that are...
Top Supercomputers to Shake Up Earthquake Modeling
Two DOE-funded projects — and a bunch of top supercomputers — are converging to improve our understanding of earthquakes and enable the construction of more earthquake-resilient buildings and infrastructure. The first, more grounded project: the Large-Scale Laminar...

AI Predicts Physics of Future Fault Slip in Laboratory Earthquakes
An artificial-intelligence approach borrowed from natural-language processing — much like language translation and auto-fill for text on your smartphone — can predict future fault friction and the next failure time with high resolution in laboratory earthquakes. The...
Engineers Work on New Material for Computer Chips
The amount of energy used for computing is climbing at an exponential rate. Business intelligence and consulting firm Enerdata reports that information, communication and technology accounts for 5% to 9% of total electricity consumption worldwide. Source: Karen...
New Tool Helps Researchers Investigate Clouds, Rain and Climate Change
Clouds come in all shapes and sizes. While we might imagine puppies or whales or breaking waves, climatologists look at them as massive bundles of water in various forms that contribute to the daily weather, and ultimately, climate. The numbers, shapes and sizes of...
Q-NEXT Scientists Extend Qubit Lifetimes with Asymmetry
Scientists have demonstrated that they can extend the lifetime of a molecular qubit by altering the surrounding crystal’s structure to be less symmetrical. The asymmetry protects the qubit from noise, enabling it to maintain information for five times longer than if...
