Source: techrepublic.com Altran has released a new tool that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to help software engineers spot bugs during the coding process instead of at the end. Available on GitHub, Code Defect AI uses machine learning (ML) to analyze existing code, spot potential problems in new code, and suggest tests to diagnose and fix the errors. Walid Negm, group chief Read More

Source – qz.com Cameras—especially phone cameras—are terrible at taking pictures in the dark. The tiny image sensors in most modern cameras can only absorb a small amount of light, which often results in dark, grainy images. To try to solve this problem without inventing a new image sensor, researchers at Intel and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champlain taught Read More
