Researchers from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) have announced a breakthrough in their robotics research. The team is presenting the Dense Object Nets (DON) method, a new system that they say will one day make robots useful in home and office situations. The system uses computer vision to enable robots to understand … continue reading
Cancer is a scary thing, but it can be even scarier if doctors can’t properly diagnose the specific type of cancer a patient has. Researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) want to solve this problem with a program that they said can help doctors better identify the disease. The researchers specifically … continue reading
MIT researchers have created a new algorithm to tackle one of the most common bugs in programming: integer overflows. According to the researchers, these errors not only can cause computer programs to crash, but also leave them vulnerable to attack. “Integer overflow errors are an insidious source of software failures and security vulnerabilities,” they wrote. … continue reading
