Called LOGAN, the deep neural network, i.e., a machine of sorts, can learn to transform the shapes of two different objects, for example, a chair and a table, in a natural way, without seeing any ...

The new metamaterials can learn to take on any shape – here, they have learned the letters that spell ‘learn’, or in Dutch: ‘leren’. In a new Nature Physics publication, University of Amsterdam ...

University of Amsterdam scientists have created metamaterials that can autonomously learn, store, and adapt shapes without a central processor. Built from chains of motorized hinges that share ...

Humans and other animals can learn new skills and behaviors from others they interact with. This process, referred to as ...

Formless 'slime' robots that shape-change to complete complex tasks – it sounds like science fantasy. However, MIT researchers have developed a machine-learning technique that brings shape-changing ...
