Since decoding the “waggle dance” in the 1940s, bees have been at the forefront of research into insect intellect. A new study shows that bees can be trained to understand the dot-dash behavior of ...

Conducted by researchers at Queen Mary University of London, the study showed that more than 80 percent of the bees reliably chose the correct flash pattern even when there was no reward involved. The ...

Bumblebees can separate dot-like and dash-like flashes in a way that resembles Morse code. Researchers at Queen Mary University of London trained the insects to use the duration of a light cue to ...

In Morse code, a short duration flash or ‘dot’ denotes a letter ‘E’ and a long duration flash, or ‘dash’, means letter ‘T’. Until now, the ability to discriminate between ‘dot’ and ‘dash’ has been ...

The proposed novel Genetic Bees Algorithm (GBA) is an enhancement to the swarm-based Bees Algorithm (BA). It is called the Genetic Bees Algorithm because it has genetic operators. The structure of the ...

Researchers at Queen Mary University of London have shown for the first time that an insect—the bumblebee Bombus terrestris—can decide where to forage for food based on different durations of visual ...

Have you ever wished you could generate interactive websites with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript while programming in nothing but Python? Here are three frameworks that do the trick. Python has long had a ...

Typically, an AI is "just" software. AI-powered software services like Grammarly and Rytr use neural nets, like GPT-3. Those neural nets consist of equations or commands, written in things like Python ...
