Machine learning method could revolutionise multi-messenger astronomy

Observing binary neutron star mergers is high on the wish list of astronomers. In a study published in the scientific journal Nature, an interdisciplinary team of researchers including ETH Zurich postdoc Maximilian Dax and Professor Bernhard Schölkopf presents a novel machine learning method to analyse gravitational waves emitted from neutron star collisions almost instantaneously – even before the merger is fully observed.
ETH Zurich and EPFL enhance collaboration to boost AI in Switzerland

ETH Zurich and EPF Lausanne are intensifying their collaboration in artificial intelligence. They have founded the Swiss National AI Institute (SNAI) to address challenges in AI by leveraging their broad scientific expertise. The new institute draws on the expertise from various AI research disciplines as well as on the ETH AI Center and the EPFL AI Center.
PURE: New security solution wards off digital pickpockets

Fraudsters, armed with just moderate technical skills and inexpensive technology, could use someone else’s payment card, mobile phone, or smartwatch to make contactless payments at a distant location without the victim’s consent. ETH Zurich researchers have developed a security solution that protects consumers against this threat.
