AGI SYSTEMS For more than 60 years, AI researchers have been working on creating intelligent machines or programs that can perform intellectual tasks that a human being can. These tasks can vary a lot from playing chess, counting animals in a picture, performing commands given in a natural language to making jokes, having a conversation with a human, producing novel inventions and art. Weak-AI ...

We report a joint study using surface-specific sum-frequency vibrational spectroscopy and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations, respectively, on a pristine hydrophobic (sub)monolayer hexane-water interface, namely, the hexane/water interface with varied vapor pressures of hexane and different pHs in water. We show clear evidence that hexane on water revises the interfacial water structure ...

ABSTRACT Motivation significantly influences learning and memory. While a long history of research has focused on simple forms of associative learning, such as Pavlovian conditioning, recent research is beginning to character-ize how motivation influences episodic memory. In this chapter we synthesize findings across behavioral, cognitive, and educational neuro-science to characterize ...

Homelessness The NPSAS:20 data show that 8.0% of undergraduate students, and 4.6% of graduate students, report experiencing homelessness in the previous 30 days. This translates to approximately 1.4 million undergraduates, and 166,000 graduate students, experiencing homelessness nationwide. In prior versions of NPSAS, students were asked if they had received a “determination of homelessness ...
