Artificial intelligence (AI) is a wide-ranging tool that enables people to rethink how we integrate information, analyze data, and use the resulting insights to improve decision making
Training AI models is costly, forcing a trade-off between compressing large models or accepting weaker performance from smaller ones trained from scratch.
A team that included Chongzie Zhang from McKelvey Engineering developed a method that allows robots to teach other robots with different features to perform the same task.
Matroid builds no-code computer-vision detectors that can spot everything from microscopic material defects to real-time safety hazards on a factory floor.
In large-scale warehousing and distribution operations, conveyor belts are an essential infrastructure that must operate with near-zero downtime to ensure the timely delivery of products. The presence of loose or foreign items on a conveyor belt can pose a serious risk to these operations.
In this post, we'll walk through how to evaluate that progress using the same metrics our platform provides automatically, so you can build detectors that get smarter, sharper, and more reliable over time.
Scientists at EPFL have created MammAlps, a multi-view, multi-modal video dataset that captures how wild mammals behave in the Swiss Alps. This new resource could be a game-changer for wildlife monitoring and conservation efforts.
Researchers at ETH Zurich and Empa have developed a new image sensor made of perovskite. This semiconductor material enables better colour reproduction and fewer image artefacts with less light. Perovskite sensors are also particularly well suited for machine vision.
