By Mathilde Fichen In the early days of computer vision, when memory was scarce and every byte counted, innovation thrived under constraint. “An Efficient Chain-Linking Algorithm,” developed at Inria in the late 1980s, is a brilliant example of this spirit.

The code resulted from r

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of caffeine ingestion on the brain during sleep. In particular, we compared the effects of caffeine to that of placebo on neural oscillations, brain complexity and measures of critical behavior. Importantly, we set out to characterize these effects across REM and NREM sleep, and across age. In a nutshell, we found that caffeine induces a broad boost in brain complexity and a prominent shift towards criticality. These effects were substant

There are a lot of parallels between “Wish World” and last year’s “The Legend of Ruby Sunday.” They are both, of course, penultimate episodes of their respective seasons of Doctor Who. They are also both built around the return of a classic Doctor Who villain, and paying off a mystery that had played out throughout their respective seasons. Unfortunately they also both share a pretty fatal parallel: they’re both aimless waiting games that have little meat on their bones as they count down to a l
