Deep learning algorithm can hear alcohol in voice
by La Trobe University Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain La Trobe University researchers have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm that could work alongside expensive and potentially biased breath testing devices in pubs and clubs. The technology can instantly determine whether a person has exceeded the legal alcohol limit purely on using a 12-seconds recording of their voice. In a paper published...

Deep learning reveals how proteins interact
Approach seeks to expand understanding of biochemical activities common to all animals, plants, and fungi. Scientist are now combining recent advances in evolutionary analysis and deep learning to build three-dimensional models of how most proteins in eukaryotes interact. (Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells have a membrane-bound nucleus to hold genetic materials.) The research effort...

Researchers use deep learning to predict breast cancer risk
RADIOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF NORTH AMERICA OAK BROOK, Ill. – Compared with commonly used clinical risk factors, a sophisticated type of artificial intelligence (AI) called deep learning does a better job distinguishing between the mammograms of women who will later develop breast cancer and those who will not, according to a new study in the journal Radiology. Researchers said...
