A simple chat with an AI support tool was reportedly enough for hackers to take over Instagram accounts belonging to high-profile users, exposing a new and unsettling class of security risk. Instead ...

"A dark patch could be where the film had turned to goo..." - Building an algorithm to flatten and process warped and damaged film. Hopefully you've been following our series of posts about efforts to ...

Abstract: Home energy displays are emerging home energy management devices. Their energy saving potential is limited, because most display whole-home electricity consumption data. We propose a new ...

USC researchers are developing a computational model that combines satellite data and physics-based simulations to forecast a wildfire's path, intensity, and growth rate. If you've ever been evacuated ...

FEC (forward-error-correction) techniques correct errors at the receiver end of digital communications systems. In contrast with error-detection and retransmission ...

This story originally appeared in the winter 2025 issue of UC San Diego Magazine as “Made Possible By AI, And Those Who Dream Big.” The rise of artificial intelligence has already transformed every ...

Los Angeles, CA, October 7, 2025: A 20-year-old biomedical engineering student at the University of Southern California (USC) has developed a software tool that is improving the speed and accuracy of ...

A complete C++ implementation of the Python hmmlearn library, featuring modern C++17, Eigen for linear algebra, and comprehensive HMM algorithms. hmm_c++/ ├── include/ # Header files │ ├── types.hpp # ...

Prior speedup claims required the assumption that there is no better classical algorithm against which to benchmark the quantum algorithm. Here, the team led by Lidar used an algorithm they modified ...

Quantum annealing has finally shown scaling advantages, offering faster, near-optimal solutions than traditional supercomputers, thanks to error-suppressed quantum processing. USC researchers have ...

When we think of famous engineers, the first names that most think of are the boomers and those much, much older. Thomas Edison, for his invention of the light bulb, amongst other things. Henry Ford ...

The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) deep learning algorithms is helping to accelerate brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). Published in this month’s Nature Neuroscience is new research that shows ...
