Researchers have repurposed an algorithm originally developed for Netflix's 2009 movie preference prediction competition (see below) to create a method for acquiring classical Raman spectroscopy ...

A project at Rice University has developed a new machine learning (ML) algorithm intended to improve the identification of biomarkers in optical spectra. As reported in ACS Nano, the algorithm could ...

A new algorithm developed by Fujitsu can reportedly offer higher signal quality for fiber optic networks, while consuming less energy. A new algorithm developed by Fujitsu can reportedly offer higher ...

The oil industry put fiber-optic sensing cables downhole to better understand why hydraulic fracturing doesn’t free trapped oil at expected rates in shale reservoirs, but the massive streams of ...

Why standard, cuff-based blood-pressure measurements are insufficient for some desired types of assessments. How electro-optical techniques can be used for consistent, real-time data. The results ...

From the camera in a smartphone to the microscopes in a laboratory, traditional optics are constrained by physical laws that dictate the size and thickness. However, a revolution is underway with the ...
