Still alluring and hard to predict at 100.
Birthdays are always a time for introspection and, given the number of fingers humans generally have, a one hundredth birthday is especially so. Almost exactly a century ago, in April 1911, the laboratory run by Heike Kamerlingh Onnes at the University of Leiden discovered a sudden transition to zero resistance in high-purity mercury on cooling through 4.2 K. At the time, Onnes was basking in t...
متن کاملLearning to Track at 100 FPS with Deep Regression Networks
Machine learning techniques are often used in computer vision due to their ability to leverage large amounts of training data to improve performance. Unfortunately, most generic object trackers are still trained from scratch online and do not benefit from the large number of videos that are readily available for offline training. We propose a method for offline training of neural networks that ...
متن کاملA laboratory nanoseismological study on deep-focus earthquake micromechanics
Global earthquake occurring rate displays an exponential decay down to ~300 km and then peaks around 550 to 600 km before terminating abruptly near 700 km. How fractures initiate, nucleate, and propagate at these depths remains one of the greatest puzzles in earth science, as increasing pressure inhibits fracture propagation. We report nanoseismological analysis on high-resolution acoustic emis...
متن کاملDeep Blue is Still an Infant
We believe that by the time of the workshop Deep Blue will have lost another match to Garry Kasparov, showing little improvement over the previous one. But even if it is indeed a "new kind of intelligence", it can be argued that this intelligence is very basic. There is a long way to go until Deep Blue could be considered a fully autonomous agent, the type we are eagerly trying to build in AI a...
متن کاملHepatitis E: Still Waters Run Deep
Hepatitis E is an infectious inflammatory disease of the liver caused by the hepatitis E virus (HEV), a single-stranded RNA virus. Today, it is estimated that there are more than 20 million HEV infections every year, leading to 3.3 million symptomatic cases and more than 56,000 deaths. For a long time it was believed that HEV was a travel-associated disease, endemic in developing countries with...
