To Boldly Go Where No Internet Protocol Has Gone Before
...to introduce DTN everywhere, because look at how much TCP/IP there is. There’s also been an evolution on the internet side to another set of protocols called QUIC that achieves...
Secret Ingredient Found to Power Supernovas
...in many different fields of physics — from nuclear physics to stellar evolution. Moreover, theorists can now run many simulations each year, allowing them to freely tweak the models and...
Artificial Neural Nets Finally Yield Clues to How Brains Learn
...doing backpropagation,” said Kording. “And evolution is pretty damn awesome. Backpropagation is useful. I presume that evolution kind of gets us there.” Researchers are learning more about how networks of...
Frank Wilczek on the Strong Force, Quarks and Dark Matter
...theory. Wilczek: That’s right. Yeah. And basically, the theory is a kind of theory of evolution of this coupling. See, within the standard model, it’s just a number that could...
The New Thermodynamic Understanding of Clocks
...against which to gauge the evolution of other observables. Physicists have struggled to understand how the time of quantum mechanics can be reconciled with the notion of time as the...
A New Link to an Old Model Could Crack the Mystery of Deep Learning
...training, the evolution of the function represented by the infinite-width neural network matches the evolution of the function represented by the kernel machine. When seen in function space, the neural...
Life’s First Peptides May Have Grown on RNA Strands
...coevolution of two of life’s key players as a single mixed, “chimeric” molecule may have been the very start of protein production, and a step toward a primitive version of...
Life Helps Make Almost Half of All Minerals on Earth
...doing, their system acknowledges how Earth’s geological development and the evolution of life influence each other. Their new taxonomy, based on an algorithmic analysis of thousands of scientific papers, recognizes...
Bacteria’s Immune Sensors Reveal a Novel Way to Detect Viruses
...of these defensive systems have been preserved through evolution and shared among diverse organisms, including humans. But a new study published this month in Science discovered that a family of...
