AI-Driven Vertical Shrimp Farm in Singapore Achieves Cost Parity with Coastal Ponds

High tech farms are no longer unusual in Singapore. In fact they have been sprouting up like mushrooms over the past five years. While many of the innovative farms in the city state still have to become profitable, a vertical shrimp farm has achieved price parity with coastal aquaculture ponds in Indonesia or Vietnam. This is thanks to an AI operated system which controls day to day operations. #HighTechFarming #SingaporeAgriculture #VerticalFarming #ShrimpFarming #AIFarming #InnovativeAgriculture #UrbanFarming #SustainableFarming #AgriTech #AIinAgriculture #Aquaculture #FoodTech #SmartFarming #AIControlled #TechInnovation ~PR.152~ED.194~GR.125~

Researchers Use Machine Learning to Understand How Elephants Communicate

Researchers Use Machine Learning , to Understand How , Elephants Communicate. 'BGR' reports that communication among elephants may be more complex than scientists previously believed. New evidence suggests that elephants possess unique names which are used to address specific elephants. The study, made possible with the help of machine learning, was published in the journal 'Nature Ecology and Evolution.'. Machine learning was used to help researchers analyze hundreds of wild elephant calls, searching for three specific "rumbles.". These rumbles, which include a greeting, a caregiving gesture and a contact calling sound, are the primary form of communication used among elephants. Other animals are known to refer to their peers by name. Both dolphins and parrots address each other by mimicking the receiver's voice. Other animals are known to refer to their peers by name. Both dolphins and parrots address each other by mimicking the receiver's voice. Elephants, on the other hand, use a more abstract approach which is more closely related to the way humans communicate. Researchers believe the findings could suggest that elephants are capable of abstract thought, which would make them much more intelligent than previously believed. It remains unclear whether each individual elephant has its own unique name, or if they somehow share names or titles.
