Chalk up another victory for “Conan the Bacterium”—a rugged germ that fresh research suggests could conquer the solar system.

How do biological cells join forces to form a structure? In her Ph.D. research, Daphne Nesenberend uses mathematics to show ...

The controversial process of enhanced enzyme diffusion could enable living systems to resist local equilibrium ...

When we eventually mine asteroids, humans and robots will not leave unprotected microbes on the surface. Instead, machines ...

Egg yolk may appear runny and uniform, but on the nanoscale, it is one of the most crowded biological fluids in nature. Packed with proteins and fats, it serves as a dense storage reservoir for a ...

An exploration of philosophical ideas about perception and reality, examining how our senses shape experience and why questioning assumptions can deepen understanding. The three costly purchases that ...

Abstract: Most existing speech generation models require substantial amounts of learning data, significantly limiting their effectiveness when working with limited pathological voice samples. In this ...

Abstract: Learning visuomotor policies with imitation learning from 3D observations is a primary research direction in robotic manipulation, as 3D data inherently captures spatial features critical ...

DilateQuant is a novel quantization-aware training (QAT) framework for accelerating diffusion models. It maintains high-quality image generation at 4-bit and 6-bit precision. Specifically, we find the ...

Scientists once thought only humans could use their imagination, but a new study suggests apes can, too. During a series of experiments, scientists discovered a bonobo called Kanzi could engage in ...
