AI analyzes satellite images to detect plastics in the ocean

An AI system has spotted plastic pollution in the sea by analyzing images from satellites orbiting the earth. The scientists behind the technique claim that it’s the first time patches of plastics in coastal waters have been detected via satellites. The system studies images collected by the European Space Agency’s Sentinel-2 satellites to spot debris floating in the world’s oceans. These objects absorb […]

Researchers built an AI to discover new stars in the quest to explain our galaxy’s origin

An AI system has spotted thousands of new stars that could hold clues about the formation of the Milky Way. Researchers from Leeds University made the discovery by analyzing images collected by the Gaia satellite, which the European Space Agency launched in 2013 to create a 3D map of our galaxy. After applying machine learning techniques to the data, they found
