WSU researchers are creating the first-ever “IQ test” for artificial intelligence systems that would score how well they learn and adapt to new, unknown environments.

WSU scientists have improved the software for studying asteroids and determining which of them might be on a collision course with Earth.

The immense amounts of data being created by next-generation sequencing technologies make the kind of annotation errors the WSU team found especially problematic.

Researchers believe the robot, nicknamed RAS, could eventually help those with dementia and other limitations continue to live independently in their own homes.

The susceptibilities were found in high‑performance computer chips that could lead to failures in modern electronics.

WSU researchers have received a $1.4M National Science Foundation grant to create software tools and simulators to enable efficient decision making by power grid operators.

Identifying cancer and other health biomarkers in real-time is the aim of a software development project.

By Christina VerHeul, Elson S. Floyd College of Medicine SPOKANE, Wash. – To achieve its mission of tackling health care challenges facing underserved communities across the state, the Washington State University Elson S. Floyd College of Medicine is hosting its inaugural hackathon April 13-15 at the WSU Spokane campus.

By Addy Hatch, WSU Nursing SPOKANE, Wash. – An interprofessional team of scientists from Washington State University has landed a $1.77 million grant to research how “smart-home” technology can monitor the health and safety of senior citizens from afar.

By Tina Hilding, Voiland College of Engineering and Architecture PULLMAN, Wash. – A WSU research team for the first time has developed a computer algorithm that is nearly as accurate as people are at mapping brain neural networks — a breakthrough that could speed up the image analysis that researchers use to understand brain circuitry.
