A research group led by Matthew Wilkens, associate professor of information science in the Cornell Ann S. Bowers College of Computing and Information Science, is the recent recipient of a Schmidt Sciences award to leverage AI in the humanities to unlock new insights in …
A $1.8 million grant from the Bezos Earth Fund will help the Cornell Lab of Ornithology develop acoustic sensors and artificial intelligence analytics to identify real-time threats to forests from illegal activities and provide insights into ecosystem health.
Cornell University has been awarded a portion of a $2 million planning initiative from the U.S. National Science Foundation to establish AI4Ag, a national testbed for artificial intelligence in agriculture.
Empire AI is now soliciting proposals from Cornell faculty and researchers to use the extended “Alpha” machine with 144 H100 GPUs, as well as the new “Beta” machine that is expected to come online in December.
Deciphering some people’s writing can be a major challenge – especially when that writing is cuneiform characters imprinted into 3,000-year-old tablets. Now, Middle East scholars can use artificial intelligence (AI) to identify and copy over cuneiform characters fro…
In two new papers, Cornell plant-herbivore experts and researchers from the Cornell Institute for Computational Sustainability joined forces to show the significant impacts of herbivores like sea snails on the spread of seagrass wasting disease. Grazing by small herbi…
Cornell scientists have identified the neural pathway mice use to direct the tongue to tactile targets: the superior colliculus, the same brain region that primates – including humans – use to direct their gaze to visual targets. It’s likely that humans use the sa…
Despite being unbound by space and time, fictional protagonists in American literature travel fewer miles than their nonfiction counterparts, according to a Cornell-led research team that used artificial intelligence to analyze nearly 13,500 books from the last 230 year…
