New Supercomputer Simulation Sheds Light on Moon’s Origin
A new NASA and Durham University simulation puts forth a different theory of the Moon’s origin – the Moon may have formed in a matter of hours, when material from the Earth and a Mars sized-body were launched directly into orbit after the impact. The simulations used in this research are some of the most […]

AI Learns to Park with Deep Reinforcement Learning
Samuel Arzt shows off a project where an AI learns to park a car in a parking lot in a 3D physics simulation. The simulation was implemented using Unity’s ML-Agents framework (https://unity3d.com/machine-learning). From the video description: The AI consists of a deep Neural Network with 3 hidden layers of 128 neurons each. It is trained […]
