Researchers built an AI tool that can predict cancer patients’ survival chances by using a photograph of their face, complementing doctors’ gut instincts to potentially guide treatment decisions, especially when medical data is scarce

Researchers from @Nokia @BellLabs, @Mysten_Labs, @SuiNetwork & collaborators from leading Universities just made an exciting breakthrough: Prove things about yourself to different people & services without revealing your identity, using technology deployable on real-world hardware, like old mobile phones, and whatever infrastructure we have today. This is especially important for finance, health, AI and blockchains, where we want to verify users or agents without exposing their personal information to the entire world!

Researchers traverse across Antarctica in minus 50 degree wind chill to validate measurements from NASA’s Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite. “Cold, dry air fills your nose and lungs. Your eyes blink, trying in vain to bat away the overwhelming brilliance of sunlight reflecting off the snow,” field notes described.

Researchers say women in Bolotana are reaching 100 at rates that stand out even among the world’s longest-lived people. #longevity# #women# #centenarians# #Bolotana# #aging#

Researchers in @ScienceAdvances have developed a cross-national “speech clock” that can track biological aging and markers of dementia across a large and diverse sample of Latin American populations.

Researchers across the US are seeing a similar trend — forests that are historically adapted to fire are now often being obliterated by the fast-moving, high temperature wildfires that are becoming increasingly more common with climate change. These researchers are grappling with what it will mean for our world if the trees that are the centerpiece of these landscapes we love don't recover like they once did.

Researchers led by MIT built Ataraxos, an AI that beat the world's strongest Stratego player, a game where most of the opponent's information is hidden. → It beat the top human player 15-1-4, and went 39-2 against top players at the world championship → It outperformed DeepMind's earlier Stratego AI, DeepNash → It needed under 1/100th of DeepNash's training examples and under 1/30th of the self-play games → It combines self-play learning with planning, using a generative model to guess hidden pieces Source:
