Deep Neural Networks using a single neuron
Sept. 13, 2021
Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are a useful tool for a wide range of tasks such as image classification, object detection, image resizing or text generation. They are extremely powerful, but they require sufficient computing power and large data sets to …
Measuring bottlenecks in the ocean
Sept. 1, 2021
The ocean provides a fluid environment with complex patterns of flow and dispersal for the organisms that live within it. How these flows transport organisms is relevant for biodiversity with potentially important implications for ecosystem health and climate. An international …
Dynamical phase transitions in quantum Reservoir Computing
Aug. 23, 2021
Information can be processed by physical, chemical and biological systems with a major example being our brain. In this context, quantum reservoir computing is a promising approach in the fields of complex systems and artificial neural networks characterized by a …
Game theory to understand rigged economies
July 27, 2021
From Adam Smith's 'invisible hand' to the very tangible effect of corruption and market manipulation, economic systems have always been under suspicion. "The game is rigged!" is often heard as a slogan to denounce injustices or counter-intuitive behavior given the …
