The room we are in is locked. It is windowless and lit from above by a fluorescent bulb. In the hallway outside—two stories beneath the city of London—attendants in dark suits patrol silently, giving ...

For more than 50 years, scientists have sought alternatives to silicon for building molecular electronics. The vision was elegant; the reality proved far more complex. Within a device, molecules ...

We can't protect what we don't understand. From decoding wolf howls to making sense of millions of citizen-science sightings, we explore the tools helping researchers understand the wild in new ways.

History has seen many waves of Egyptomania but, until the 19th century, scholars remained baffled by the many repeated symbols and motifs wrapped around every new find, from majestic monuments to ...

Most experimental brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) that have been used for synthesizing human speech have been implanted in the areas of the brain that translate the intention to speak into the muscle ...

(a) Left: encoding of blink information, the schematic indicates that the brain generates specific commands and stimulates the eyes to blink accordingly when a specific situation is encountered.

A 48-year-old man presented with a 2-year history of oedema and pain in his right hand. Initially diagnosed with tendonitis, he underwent physical therapy which provided limited relief. MRI ...

Scientists have pinpointed brain activity related to inner speech-the silent monologue in people's heads-and successfully decoded it on command with up to 74% accuracy. Publishing August 14 in the ...

A participant is using the inner speech neuroprosthesis. The text above is the cued sentence, and the text below is what's being decoded in real-time as she imagines speaking the sentence. Scientists ...

Abstract: This research paper introduces two innovative algorithms combining Burrows-Wheeler Transform (BWT) with Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW) and Run-Length Encoding (RLE), integrated with Huffman coding.
