AI and Twitter could help predict opioid deaths

A new approach that uses artificial intelligence and Twitter language predicts opioid death rates much more accurately than current methods.

Tool finds existing meds that could fight future pandemics

A new algorithm calculates how to effectively repurpose existing drugs that could be used in future pandemic outbreaks.

Criminal justice algorithms still discriminate

Proponents of algorithms as a solution to bias in criminal justice systems say they’re dispassionate. “But algorithms can discriminate.”

Algorithm targets tumor’s weakness to treat cancer

The way tumor cells allow their uncontrolled growth is also a weakness that can be harnessed to treat cancer, a study with mice shows.

Math could help crack forensic genetic cases 10x faster

Solving crimes with forensic genetic genealogy is slow and complicated. A new mathematical analysis could crack cases 10 times faster.

algorithms / batteries / electric vehicles / Science and Technology

System shaves 75% off electric vehicle battery test time

“The goal is to design a better battery and, traditionally, the industry has tried to do that using trial and error testing.” New work may speed things up.

‘Exomuscle’ boosts upper body strength and endurance

A wearable exomuscle that serves as an extra layer of muscles could one day increase upper body strength and endurance of people with restricted mobility.

algorithms / robots / Science and Technology

Method lets humans help robots ‘see’ to get around stuff

Just like us, robots can’t see through walls. A new method helps humans help them “see” where they’re going.

algorithms / cars / Science and Technology / traffic

New method makes traffic prediction faster

A new model shows that traffic forecasting doesn’t have to be perfect to be efficient. A “good enough” solution works just fine.

algorithms / Health and Medicine / magnets / surgery

Magnets could guide tiny needle through the body during surgery

A new untethered magnetic needle may one day be able to tap through tissue to perform less invasive, more precise surgery,
