For humans and machines, intelligence requires making sense of the world — inferring simple explanations for the mishmosh of information coming in through our senses, discovering regularities and ...

For AI to truly be groundbreaking for neuroscience, Pavlick asserted, it is essential to understand how the machine itself ...

Researchers have come up with a computer model that mirrors the way misinformation spreads in real life. The work might provide insight on how to protect people from the current contagion of ...

Researchers have developed a computer model that will aid in the design of nanocarriers, microscopic structures used to guide drugs to their targets in the body. The model better accounts for how the ...

Exascale computing — the ability to perform calculations at 1 billion billion per second — is what researchers are striving to push processors to do in the next decade. That’s 1,000 times faster than ...

When reviewing job growth and salary information, it’s important to remember that actual numbers can vary due to many different factors—like years of experience in the role, industry of employment, ...

Scientists who use math and computers to simulate the course of epidemics are taking on the new coronavirus to try to predict how this global outbreak might evolve and how best to tackle it. But some ...

Computers are all around us. How does this affect the world we live in? This course is a broad introduction to computing technology for humanities and social science students. Topics will be drawn ...

No human, or team of humans, could possibly keep up with the avalanche of information produced by many of today’s physics and astronomy experiments. Some of them record terabytes of data every day — ...

UMass Lowell’s computer and information sciences program uses a bottom-up approach, where you first learn about the machine you will be using as a tool. Our programming sequence allows you to build a ...
