A new tool from the Artificial Intelligence and Computer Vision Lab at the University of Arkansas uses artificial intelligence and thermal cameras to estimate the body temperature of cattle. The system, called CattleFever, is the first step toward automated tools that ranchers could use to

Testing in Chen’s lab at Duke shows an AI model that can identify thousands of images transmitted wirelessly with high accuracy in the blink of an eye. Credit: Duke University As drones survey forests, robots navigate warehouses and sensors monitor city streets, more of the world's decision-making is occurring autonomously on the edge—on the small devices that gather information at the ends of much larger networks. But making that shift to edge computing i

Its biologically active compounds—thymol, carvacrol, rosmarinic acid, and caffeic acid—provide anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, and immune benefits. But thyme extract also has downsides. It vaporizes quickly, making it challenging to use, and too muc

Credit: CC0 Public Domain During training cruises and regattas, sailors collect valuable data for climate research at sea. A study appearing in Science Advances showed that this data can help improve estimates of the marine carbon sink. Currently, the ocean absorbs more than a quarter of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2). Without this significant sink, more CO2 would remain in the atmosphere, causing climate change to progress more rapidly. Therefore, it

Researchers used artificial intelligence to study the currents flowing through Indonesia, including in the Maluku Strait, seen here. Credit: Zheng Wang The Indonesian Throughflow carries both warm water and fresh water from the Pacific into the Indian Ocean. As the only low-latitude current that connects the two bodies of water, it plays a key role in ocean circulation and sea surface temperature worldwide. The current is as complex as it is important: The
