B Researchers have found bees can do basic mathematics, in a discovery that deepens our understanding of the relationship between brain size and brain power. Recently, A study conducted by researchers from RMIT University in Melbour
19、ne, Australia showed that bees could perform arithmetic operations like addition and subtraction (减法).Solving math problems requires a complex level of involving the mental management of numbers, long-term rules and short-term working memory. The finding that even the tiny brain of a honeybee can gr
20、asp basic mathematical operations has a possible effect on the future development of Artificial Intelligence, particularly in improving rapid learning.RMITs Professor Adrian Dyer said numerical (数字的) operations like addition and subtraction are complex because they require two levels of processing.
21、“You need to be able to hold the rules around adding and subtracting in your long-term memory, while mentally using skillfully a set of given numbers in your short-term memory,” Dyer said. “On top of this, our bees also used their short-term memories to solve arithmetic problems, as they learned to
22、recognize plus or minus as abstract concepts.”The findings suggest that advanced numerical cognition (认知) may be found much more widely in nature among non-human animals than previously suspected.“If math doesnt require a massive brain, there might also be new ways for us to include interactions of
23、both long-term rules and working memory in designs to improve rapid AI learning of new problems,” said Dyer.Many species can understand the difference between quantities and use this to search for food, make decisions and solve problems. But numerical cognition, such as exact number and arithmetic o

28、D. The Relationship Between Brain Size and Brain PowerCGetting stitched(缝合) up by Dr. Robot may one day be reality. Scientists have created a robotic system which did just that in living animals without a real doctor pulling the strings. Much like engineers are designing self-driving cars, the medic
29、al research is part of a move toward autonomous surgical robots, removing the surgeons hands from certain tasks that a machine might perform all by itself.Doctors wouldnt leave the bedside theyre supposed to watch. Plus theyd handle the rest of the surgery. In small tests using pigs, the robotic arm
30、 performed at least as well, and in some cases a bit better, as some competing surgeons in stitching together intestinal(肠的) tissue. “The purpose wasnt to replace surgeons, ”said Dr. Kim who led the project. “If you have all intelligent tool that works with a surgeon, can it improve the outcome? Tha

Today many hospitals offer robot-assisted surgery where surgeons use the machinery as tools that they control by hand to operate through tiny openings in th

But robot-assisted surgery has been controversial, as some studies have shown it can bring higher costs without better outcomes.Kims team at Childrens Sheikh Zayed Institute invented the new STAR systemit stands for Smart Tissue Autonomous Robotworks sort of like a programmable sewing machin
33、e. They added sensors to help guide each stitch and tell how tightly to pull. But the approach wasnt perfect. In the living animals, the robot took much longer and made a few stitching mistakes while the surgeon sewing by hand made none. Kim said the robot can be sped up. He hopes to begin human stu
