The Georgia Institute of Technology has created a new position to ensure research compliance within the research enterprise. Carpantato (Tanta) T. Myles will serve as the first associate vice president for Research Integrity Assurance (AVP-RIA) starting Aug. 1. The AVP-RIA is responsible for the Institute’s overall strategy to ensure research…
From the thousands of feet of frozen glaciers to the rising seas off Savannah’s coast, Georgia Institute of Technology researchers are measuring, modeling, and predicting just how climate change is impacting our oceans. The Tide Is High: Generating Energy From Waves, Tides, and Currents Solar and wind power have been used as renewable…
A new “stress test” method created by a Georgia Tech researcher allows programmers to more easily determine if trained visual recognition models are sensitive to input changes or rely too heavily on context clues to perform their tasks. Viraj Prabhu, a Ph.D. student in Georgia Tech’s School of Interactive Computing, introduced the LANCE (Language…
The amount of published materials science research is growing at an exponential rate, too fast for scientists to keep up. To help these scholars, a first-of-its-kind materials science data extraction pipeline is now available to make their research easier and faster. The pipeline extracts material property records from published papers and…
Findings from two published studies could lead to enhancements in artificial intelligence (AI) models by focusing on their flaws. One paper found that adding visual attributes to text in multimodal models could boost performance and usefulness for humans. Another study determined that few-shot learning (FSL) models lack robustness against…
An investment strategy based on findings culled from a new dataset is proving that it can provide substantially better financial returns than a traditional “buy and hold” approach. The dataset compiles meeting minutes, speeches, and press conference transcripts from the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC). It is the largest tokenized and…
Hurricane season is underway and runs through Nov. 30. While the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is forecasting a “near-normal” 2023, experts say that climate change paints a more unpredictable picture for the future. Behind the 2023 projections is a balancing act of rising oceanic temperatures and the onset of the climate…
For many patients battling a disease, or trying to prevent one, the best treatment option is controlled drug delivery. In those cases, a delivery system must bind with the drug and then release it precisely where and when it will be most effective. However, the same system doesn’t work for every drug — for example, the methods used for capturing…
The Strategic Energy Institute and the Venture Lab are excited to welcome Richard Gruber to lead the clean tech commercialization efforts at Georgia Tech. Gruber will be working closely with Georgia Tech researchers helping them convert their ground-breaking research into impactful companies. His role includes cultivating relationships with…
Artificial intelligence (AI) can help people shop, plan, and write — but not cook. It turns out humans aren’t the only ones who have a hard time following step-by-step recipes in the correct order, but new research from the Georgia Institute of Technology’s College of Computing could change that.Researchers created a dataset called ChattyChef,…
