Throughout history, sonar’s distinctive “ping” has been used to map oceans, spot enemy submarines and find sunken ships. Today, a variation of that technology – in miniature form, developed by Cornell researchers – is proving a game-changer in wearable body-sensing technology.
A delegation of more than 50 faculty, students and staff from Cornell Bowers CIS attended the Richard Tapia Celebration of Diversity in Computing conference in D.C.
A hardware accelerator initially developed for artificial intelligence operations successfully speeds up the alignment of protein and DNA molecules, making the process up to 10 times faster than state-of-the-art methods.
The faculty have expertise in a broad range of areas, including robotics, artificial intelligence, digital fabrication, public health, and population genetics.
The $1.7 million grant will help scientists with expertise in artificial intelligence and machine learning to address complex biomedical challenges in nutrition and health.
On November 1st, Cornell's Center for Advanced Computing and Weill Cornell Medicine Scientific Computing, ITS, and Clinical and Translational Science Center will launch a new Scientific Computing Training Series.
Richard “Dick” W. Conway ’54, Ph.D. ’58, a trailblazing professor who was instrumental in launching Cornell’s Department of Computer Science in 1965 – one of the first of its kind – died March 19. He was 92.
Researchers from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the Institute for Computational Sustainability are using big data and AI to model hidden patterns in nature – not just for one bird species, but for entire ecological communities across continents.
Using low-frequency radio waves to send blood pressure data, a group of students has provided a proof of concept that could enable in-home health care for people without cellular or broadband access.
