Representation Matters in AI-Generated Images

by Ken Chiacchia | May 24, 2024 | AI, Bridges-2, Science Highlights

A prompt for Mexican dancers from an AI image generator produced the strange ballerinas at left; a new CMU-designed filter makes the image more appropriate and realistic, right. Image credit: Zhixuan Liu, Jean Oh, et al. 2024. SCoFT: Self-Contrastive Fine-Tuning for...
Bridges-2 Simulations Target Role of Red Blood Cells in Clot Formation

Bridges-2 Simulations Target Role of Red Blood Cells in Clot Formation

by Ken Chiacchia | May 2, 2024 | Bridges-2, Science Highlights

Developing blood clot, with fibrin “cables” (yellow), being pulled together by platelets (off-white). Clots that trap more red blood cells (red) may not contract as effectively, slowing healing. Adobe Stock image: 240_F_453411695_2N2Jddctb1vWwqowio9hVtKoNrZ76X65.jpg...
Surface Curvature Directs Growth of Bacterial Biofilms

Surface Curvature Directs Growth of Bacterial Biofilms

by Ken Chiacchia | Mar 26, 2024 | Bridges-2, Science Highlights

Simulated bacteria growing on a flat surface (left) versus on a sphere (right). The simulation recreates the growth of real bacteria raised in the lab; it also shows that when the microbes grow on progressively smaller curved surfaces, the areas of alignment become...
