Digital twins give fresh insight into the world around us
Research
EPFL
Digital twins are computer-based models of an object or even a human organ, and the technology behind them is advancing at a rapid pace. EPFL will host a series of talks and seminars on this topic at its Digital Twin Days on 15 and 16 November. An ideal opportunity to learn more about the work EPFL researchers are doing in this pioneering field.
How words acquire their meaning
Research
EPFL
Researchers in EPFL’s College of Humanities have used machine learning to reveal how humans bridge the often-significant gaps between signal and meaning in communication.
A machine designs new Swiss Alpine architecture at the Seoul Biennale
Research
EPFL
The Artificial Swissness exhibit – a larger than life-sized “design brain” developed by EPFL’s Media x Design Lab (LDM) – is currently on display at the Seoul Biennale for Architecture and Urbanism, which runs until 31 October 2021. This high-tech machine can generate a virtually infinite number of architectural images of Swiss Alpine cabins.
Social media and AI can measure the aesthetic quality of landscapes
Research
EPFL
To measure an ecosystem’s beauty and the well-being it produces for people can help inform public environmental policy. Scientists at EPFL and Wageningen University in the Netherlands have developed a novel modeling approach for ecosystem assessments based on deep learning and millions of Flickr photos.
When art and technology intermingle, the copies are real
Teaching
EPFL
Starting September 17, 2021, EPFL Pavilions will host an exceptional exhibition, "Deep Fakes: Art and Its Double". Organised by EPFL and University of Lausanne, using artificial intelligence and the latest scientific imaging technologies, it immerses the public in the depths of artistic and cultural doubles.
Optical technology can slash the energy required by AI
Research
EPFL
EPFL engineers are pioneering an energy-saving technology that uses fiber optics to boost the performance of supercomputers.
