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 ...
