The researchers achieved this level of granularity with Clio by combining large language models (LLMs) — multiple virtual neural networks that underpin artificial intelligence tools, systems and services — that have been trained to identify all manner of objects, with computer vision.
This transformation of ground photos into a bird’s-eye view allows researchers to track how penguin colonies change in location and population size over time – which could prove especially helpful in remote regions of the world where aerial drone or aircraft surveys are done infrequently.
“When you deal with the scientific revolution, the triumph of the Copernican worldview, we know the big names,” says computational scientist Jürgen Renn of the Max Planck Institute of Geoanthropology in Jena, Germany, who was not involved in the new work.

It also can refer just to England and Wales, the territories conquered by the ancient Romans who named the land Britannia.
Their analysis of the cases, which occurred between 2014 and 2021, involved tallying the various insect species present at each stage of decomposition, comparing the minimum postmortem interval estimates and factoring in the average ambient temperature during each time period.
Participants performed their best when the sentences contained a subject, verb and object, with the fastest brain activity being seen for phrases such as "nurses clean wounds," compared to noun lists like "hearts lungs livers."

Some small modular reactor designs make use of advanced types of fuel, such as TRISO, tiny particles of uranium that are surrounded by multiple layers of encapsulation (shown).Idaho National Laboratory
That act gave the country “permission” to claim sovereignty over any allegedly uninhabited or unclaimed territory to secure access to guano, a prized fertilizer for American tobacco, cotton and wheat fields.
Hawking’s calculations showed that the radiation should be random, offering no way to predict what types of particles will emerge.
Genetic sequencing of cases in Rwanda has revealed that the virus jumped from an animal, like an Egyptian fruit bat or an African green monkey, to a person just once in the ongoing outbreak, the country’s health minister tweeted on 20 October.
