How can smart contact lenses monitor and treat eye conditions?

Futurum

Therefore, wearable biomedical devices must have mechanical softness, flexibility, stretchability and breathability, without side effects such as discomfort, pain or tissue damage.”. This means the sensors can exist on flexible, stretchable, transparent or biodegradable substrates, including soft contact lenses. Pinterest.

ChatGPT Gets Its “Wolfram Superpowers”!

Stephen Wolfram

And in the end, as we’ll discuss later, that’s a more flexible and powerful way to communicate. And writing this prompt is a strange activity—perhaps our first serious experience of trying to “ communicate with an alien intelligence ”. When ChatGPT calls the Wolfram plugin it often just feeds natural language to Wolfram|Alpha.

Grading for growth in an engineering math class: Part 1

Robert Talbert, Ph.D.

With summer officially underway, I'm going to be writing for the next two weeks about the grading system I had in place for the semester that just ended, in my Linear Algebra and Differential Equations classes. The class that I taught was MTH 302: Linear Algebra and Differential Equations.

The heart of the loop: Reattempts without penalty

Robert Talbert, Ph.D.

be the primary measure of success in a course, and some measure of grace and flexibility will be included along with high standards and "rigor" And for other instructors, this concept raises more questions than answers. For some instructors, it provides hope that student growth will (finally!) Limit the frequency of reassessments.

Multicomputation: A Fourth Paradigm for Theoretical Science

Stephen Wolfram

Mathematics is normally done at the level of “specific mathematical concepts” (like, say, algebraic equations or hyperbolic geometry)—that are effectively the “populated places” (or “populated reference frames”) of metamathematical space. And the same issue arose for Alonzo Church’s lambda calculus (introduced around 1930).
