We introduced the notion of “informavore,” or a consumer of information, in our previous post. We’d now like to introduce a distinction to provide more nuance to this notion, which we’ll explore in ...

Information theory underpins modern digital communication by quantifying information and delineating the limits of data transmission. Among its most celebrated implementations are Low-Density ...

The Hybrot, a small robot that moves about using the brain signals of a rat, is the first robotic device whose movements are controlled by a network of cultured neuron cells. The Hybrot, a small robot ...

Effective student engagement and classroom management are two important pedagogical strategies that teachers learn about in teacher education programmes. With technological advances, there are ...

Signal processing algorithms, architectures, and systems are at the heart of modern technologies that generate, transform, and interpret information across applications as diverse as communications, ...
