Deep Learning Digs Deep: AI Unveils New Large-Scale Images in Peruvian Desert

Researchers at Yamagata University in Japan have harnessed AI to uncover four previously unseen geoglyphs — images on the ground, some as wide as 1,200 feet, made using the land’s elements — in Nazca, a seven-hour drive south of Lima, Peru. The geoglyphs — a humanoid, a pair of legs, a fish and a bird… Continue reading Deep Learning Digs Deep: AI Unveils New Large-Scale Images in Peruvian Desert

NVIDIA CEO: Creators Will Be “Supercharged” by Generative AI

Meet the Maker: Software Engineer Ramps Up NVIDIA Jetson to Build Self-Driving Skate Park

Kirk Kaiser Kirk Kaiser grew up a fan of the video game Paperboy, where players act as cyclists delivering newspapers while encountering various obstacles, like ramps that appear in the middle of the street. This was the inspiration behind the software developer’s latest project using the NVIDIA Jetson platform for edge AI and robotics —… Continue reading Meet the Maker: Software Engineer Ramps Up NVIDIA Jetson to Build Self-Driving Skate Park

NYU, NVIDIA Collaborate on Large Language Model to Predict Patient Readmission

Getting discharged from the hospital is a major milestone for patients — but sometimes, it’s not the end of their road to recovery. Nearly 15% of hospital patients in the U.S. are readmitted within 30 days of their initial discharge, which is often associated with worse outcomes and higher costs for both patients and hospitals.… Continue reading NYU, NVIDIA Collaborate on Large Language Model to Predict Patient Readmission
