Alibaba's Damo Academy Tongyi Lab recently announced the open sourcing of a voice processing technology called ClearerVoice-Studio, aimed at enhancing voice quality and intelligibility. As voice technology becomes more widely used, voice quality is gaining increasing attention, especially in situations involving background noise, reverberation, and device pickup, leading to a growing demand for voice processing technology.

On the imaginative edge of the internet, certain creatives can instantly ignite people's resonance. Recently, Xiaohongshu blogger "DIGIT.AI" redefined the concept of pain cars using AI technology, garnering nearly 30,000 likes and blurring the lines between virtual and reality. Pain cars, a subcultural concept originating from Japan, were originally an alternative expression of decorating car bodies with anime characters. Now, with the magic of AI, it is redefining visual creativity in an unprecedented manner. For example, AI-generated dynamic images of Pingu the Penguin perfectly blend with the streets of Shanghai.

Xiaomi today revealed the imaging configuration details of the REDMI K80 series smartphones, marking a comprehensive upgrade in photography capabilities for this series. The REDMI K80 series will feature a flagship high dynamic main camera (Light and Shadow Hunter 800 sensor, supporting OIS optical stabilization), a flagship floating telephoto lens (50MP) and a high pixel ultra-wide angle lens (32MP), to meet users' demands for high-quality photography.

Generating high-quality, temporally continuous videos requires a significant amount of computational resources, especially for longer time spans. The latest Diffusion Transformer model (DiTs) has made significant progress in video generation, but its reliance on larger models and more complex attention mechanisms has resulted in slower inference speeds, exacerbating the challenge. To address this issue, researchers at Meta AI have proposed a training-free method called AdaCache to accelerate video DiTs.

In recent years, non-destructive imaging technology has made rapid advancements in the field of painting research and preservation. Among these, macro X-ray fluorescence (MA-XRF) analysis stands out, helping experts identify pigments and analyze painting techniques, providing valuable insights into the artist's creative process. However, MA-XRF technology generates large and complex datasets that challenge traditional data analysis methods. Recently, Italian researchers applied deep learning algorithms to spectral analysis of MA-XRF datasets, developing a brand new analysis approach.

Tencent Cloud and Xiaomi have collaborated to launch the new Smart Lock M30 Pro. This product utilizes Tencent's 'palm scanning technology' that leverages AI recognition capabilities of palm prints and palm veins, providing users with a novel and convenient way to unlock securely. This technology is based on Tencent's proprietary 'palm print + palm vein' recognition algorithm, which captures images of the veins beneath the palm skin using near-infrared light for high-precision identity verification. Since every individual's palm vein pattern is unique, this technology not only enhances the convenience of unlocking but also significantly increases security.

According to 36Kr, Xiaomi's automotive autonomous driving team recently completed a new round of organizational restructuring, marking the entry of Xiaomi's autonomous driving business into a new acceleration phase. The original two secondary departments, 'Perception' and 'Control', have been merged into the 'End-to-End Algorithm and Function Department', responsible for production-ready solution development. This change indicates that Xiaomi's autonomous driving will shift from traditional modular development to the technological route of large end-to-end models. The restructuring of Xiaomi's autonomous driving business and the shift in technological direction aim to capture user mindset and maintain high sales.

The new version's 'Featured Content'

With the rise of generative AI, the prompt trading market is rapidly expanding. However, current trading platforms, exemplified by PromptBase, are predominantly seller-driven in pricing and lack objective price measurement standards. In response to this challenge, the multimedia and intelligent security team at Fudan University has proposed an innovative prompt trading model aimed at better adapting to a future buyer-driven market. This new trading model consists of two main phases: prompt category selection and pricing strategy formulation. In the first phase, the platform employs a greedy search-based multi-armed bandit algorithm to...

Within the complex neural networks of the human brain, billions of neurons are continuously generating electrical activity, encoding our every thought, action, and sensation.
