Scientists use machine learning algorithms to create a real-life Doodle God


Scientists from the University of Liverpool have taught computers to sift through the infinite possibilities of atoms in search of new materials. The computers use machine-learning to help scientists narrow their focus when combining atoms to create something entirely new. This new research will allow scientists to input previously known materials into a machine learning algorithm so that the computer can then predict what similar atomic pairings will produce. Liverpool Materials Chemist, Professor Matt Rosseinsky, said: Understanding which atoms will combine to form new materials from the vast space of possible candidates is one of the grand scientific challenges, and solving it will open up…

Consulting firm Anatomy Media released a report indicating most viewers age 18-26 can’t match television shows from ABC, NBC, FOX, CBS, or Disney to their respective networks.

Milne could never understand why his books for kids were so popular – he grew to hate them. He thought the three novels, four screenplays and 18 plays he wrote for adults were way better. I don’t know about you, but I didn’t even know A.A Milne wrote any adult fiction (sorry A.A Milne). When Woody Allen finished Manhattan – arguably his best and most popular film – he asked movie company United Artists to…
