BlackFin Group, a management consulting firm serving the Mortgage Banking Industry, has launched AI Astute, a consulting offering specifically designed to help banks, independent mortgage banks, credit unions, and other Financial Services & Banking Organizations (FSBOs) create technology roadmaps that add AI capabilities to their operations in a manner that reduces risk and returns a verifiable ROI.
Researchers from Skoltech have developed an early prototype of a medical imaging system that uses neural networks to analyze near-infrared images of veins and project a venous pattern onto a patient’s body – this may make blood draws much easier and less of a nuisance for patients with difficult access to veins.
At the entrance of Nature of Robotics a couple of robotic snails slither around the floor, leaving behind slimy trails. Two visitors, young boys, enter the exhibit and squat next to the slimy creatures, trying to follow both of them at once. Docents come over to explain that the robotic snails is an art instillation called "Maybe" imagined by Swiss artist Urs Fischer.
Soft robots offer various benefits such as different movement patterns, and friendly interaction with humans, flexible actuating tactics.
X-rays, first used clinically in the late 1890s, could be a leading-edge diagnostic tool for COVID-19 patients with the help of artificial intelligence, according to a team of researchers in Brazil who taught a computer program, through various machine learning methods, to detect COVID-19 in chest X-rays with 95.6 to 98.5% accuracy.
International genomics research led by the University of Leicester has used artificial intelligence (AI) to study an aggressive form of cancer, which could improve patient outcomes.
Immervision Inc. announced a new partner for JOYCE, the world's first humanoid robot to unite the computer vision community.

Sonasoft Corp. will be beta launching its new AI engine this May, leveraging its recently filed IP, which incorporates inspirations from biology and systems like Numenta’s HTM and Applied Brain Research’s spiking neural network.
Scientists from the Division of Sustainable Energy and Environmental Engineering at Osaka University employed deep learning artificial intelligence to improve mobile mixed reality generation. They found that occluding objects recognized by the algorithm could be dynamically removed using a video game engine. This work may lead to a revolution in green architecture and city revitalization.
Living tissue is known to heal itself even after several injuries. However, it has been highly difficult to impart similar abilities to artificial systems like robots.
Thirona, an artificial intelligence (AI) software company specialising in medical image analysis, developed an AI algorithm that revolutionizes cystic fibrosis (CF) care. The new algorithm, coined PRAGMA-AI, allows for fast, automated analysis of CT scans of patients with CF to detect and quantify lung abnormalities related to CF.
Today, Drone Major Group* has announced the launch of the first ever drone technology ‘Test and Development Area’ project, to be created in the Liverpool City Region. The project is to be delivered in partnership with Liverpool City Region Combined Authority (LCRCA) and is expected to put the region on the path to become a global leader in the deployment of cutting-edge drone technology.
Climate change also affects forests in Germany. Currently, the biggest forest dieback since the 1980s is taking place. In Baden-Württemberg, 43 percent of all forest areas are damaged. Science will now help take countermeasures and make forest ecosystems more resistant:
Stuttgart - A team of scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems (MPI-IS) in Germany, from Seoul National University in Korea and from the Harvard University in the US, successfully developed a predictive model and closed-loop controller of a soft robotic fish, designed to actively adjust its undulation amplitude to changing flow conditions and other external disturbances.
