Cool Worlds | Is It Possible to Learn The Language of Planets? @CoolWorldsLab | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 14 hours ago
Could we learn to "speak planet"? Computational linguistics is now found in your smart phone, car and speakers, making sense of our speech and text. Could these same algorithms make sense of exoplanets? Join us today as we explore a radical new research idea recently published by the Cool Worlds Lab. Written and Presented by Dr Emily Sandford. This research was made possible through funding from the Data Science Institute’s Seed Fund Award.
