Neuroscientists study the neural structure of recurrent networks in the brain

Wasim Raza The University of Wyoming researchers picked each other’s brains, so to speak. They examined the importance of the frontal cortex, which is responsible for expressive language, judgment, and voluntary movement. They discovered that these functions are carried out by recurrent neural networks, or RNNs. Qian-Quan Sun, a UW professor of zoology and physiology, […]

Alphabet’s project “Taara” for hi-speed internet

Aman Kumar Worldwide internet traffic is expected to increase by 24% each year. Fiber-optic cable can accommodate this increase in demand, but deploying a large fiber network may be challenging. Planning and constructing trenches to install lines may be time-consuming and expensive, and difficult terrain can make expansion virtually impossible. Because it’s difficult to install […]
