MIT researchers have developed a technique that teaches AI to capture actions shared between video and audio. For example, their method can understand that the act of a baby crying in a video is related to the spoken word “crying” in a sound clip. It’s part of an effort to teach AI how to understand concepts that humans have no trouble learning, but that computers find hard to grasp. “The prevalent learning paradigm, supervised learning, works well when you have datasets that are well described and complete,” AI expert Phil Winder told Lifewire in an email interview....

Imagine this—perhaps you’re coming down with a cold and you need to email your boss to let them know you can’t make it to work the next day. But, you want to sound formal and respectful. Wordtune can help make that happen. Or, if you’re someone like me, who finds what they write a little rough around the edges sometimes, Wordtune can help clean that up, too. “While your brain is busy penning down thoughts randomly, Wordtune can help organize and polish the crude thoughts into refined paragraphs and appropriately convey your meaning....

In The Suspect, which premieres on Thursday, Turner portrays Joe O’Loughlin, a clinical psychologist who was recently diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and is brought onto a case when the police find a woman buried in a shallow grave. The only problem is with each decision and revelation Joe makes, he starts to draw more and more suspicion on himself as the culprit. The way in which the show’s plot develops was “surprising” even for Turner, he said, who added that he felt this project was his “first in a long time” that he felt he’d also enjoy as a viewer....

That’s the question in the aftermath of Saturday’s 31-27 loss to No. 2 Florida State (7-0). No. 5 Notre Dame (6-1) couldn’t quite wake up the ghosts of 1993. That’s the last time the Irish were on top of the college football world. It almost happened again. It should have happened again. A questionable offensive pass interference call negated a touchdown pass from Everett Golson to Corey Robinson with 17 seconds left....

During the sixth Democratic primary debate at Loyola Marymount University, Biden answered a question about forgiveness by talking about some of the young people with speech impediments he had mentored. “The little kid who says ‘I can’t talk, what do I do?’ I have scores of these young men and women that I keep in contact with,” he said, affecting a stutter on the first “I.” Shortly after the clip aired, Sanders issued a derogatory tweet towards Biden, writing: “I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I hhhave absolutely no idea what Biden is talking about #DemDebate....

The under-fire manager still managed to lash out at detractors after the 3-2 victory over Newcastle on Saturday, claiming he would even be blamed for the weather and the progress of Brexit negotiations. Following a newspaper report that he could be fired because of poor results and frequent criticism of his players, Mourinho was a picture of abject misery on the touchline as United went 2-0 down against Newcastle after only 10 minutes of their English Premier League match at Old Trafford....

Para-ice hockey sees players with leg impairments strapped into double-bladed sledges, and they then use two short sticks to zip around the rink and shoot. It is one of the toughest sports – and most popular among spectators – at the Paralympics, and players are kitted out in helmets and padding to avoid injury in clashes. But Fukushima, who is competing in his fourth Paralympics in Pyeongchang, shrugs off the suggestion that his age is an impediment to playing at the highest level....

Still wildly popular amongst its unwavering fans, each installment of Age of Empires still manages respectable concurrent player counts. Considering the first title released in 1997, and Age of Empires 2 being arguably the most popular in the current trilogy released in 1999, the maintenance of online leaderboards and organization of officially recognized tournaments has kept interest kindled and the community thriving.

Sure, the NFC has 2022 MVP candidate Jalen Hurts, upstart rookie Brock Purdy and the greatest quarterback to ever play, Tom Brady, on its side, but the AFC is loaded with talented passers. Between Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen and Joe Burrow, the AFC has, arguably, the three best quarterbacks in football right now. That doesn’t figure to change any time soon. In fact, the disparity between the two conferences may only grow....

According to the Associated Press, Schmidt is calling on the international community for assistance. The threat for a Serb force could “ultimately undermine the state’s ability to function and carry out its constitutional responsibilities,” said Schmidt, who also called Dodik’s threats “tantamount to secession without proclaiming it.” Schmidt also warned that the agreement that ended the Bosnian War in 1995 is in danger. The actions of Bosnian Serbs, he said, “endanger not only the peace and stability of the country and the region, but—if unanswered by the international community—could lead to the undoing of the agreement....

Aguero has thrived in the injury-enforced absence of fellow forward Gabriel Jesus, helping City remain on track to romp to the Premier League title. The 29-year-old began 2018 with a goal in a 3-1 defeat of Watford, following up with a double against Burnley in the FA Cup and a late headed winner in the first leg of the EFL Cup semi-final against Bristol City. Aguero was not on target in City’s 4-3 loss at Liverpool - their first domestic defeat of the season - but he scored a perfect hat-trick in a 3-1 home win against Newcastle United....

Aguilar was added to the NL All-Star team Wednesday night and then validated the selection with three hits and three RBIs, but his teammates went 1 for 14 with runners in scoring position and Milwaukee lost 5-4 to the Miami Marlins in 12 innings. “That’s going to happen,” Aguilar said. “We’ve got to keep going. We’re playing really good. We’ve got to turn the page.” Starlin Castro singled home the winning run with one out in the 12th....

The trial for the three men charged with killing Ahmaud Arbery, a black man from Georgia, continued Monday. Arbery, 25, was shot from a close range after being chased by white men in a pickup truck who saw him jogging in their neighborhood. Arbery’s slaying is one of many killings that received national attention in the last year due to the racial undertones of the case. Glynn Country police Sergeant Shelia Ramos displayed dozens of crime scene photos she took roughly an hour after the February 23, 2020 shooting....

After the St. Louis goalie stumbled, Aho had an easy goal that helped the Carolina Hurricanes win a matchup between two of the NHL’s hottest teams. Aho’s short-handed goal and assist led the Hurricanes past the Blues 5-2 on Friday night. “Tonight was a battle of wills for me,” first-year Carolina coach Rod Brind’Amour said. Justin Faulk also had a goal and an assist, Justin Williams and Jordan Staal scored, and Andrei Svechnikov added an empty-netter for Carolina....

As per the AIFF guidelines, to get an approval, a club/academy has to compete in the Youth Leagues (Hero Elite League, Hero Junior League and Hero Sub-Junior League) which are organised by the governing body. The number of successful academies has gone up by a fair margin this year compared to the 83 academies that were cleared in the 2018-19 season. The Academy accreditation process is conducted through six months which includes the establishment of the assessment criteria, organisation of workshops, where the criteria were introduced and explained to the applicants, submission of relevant documents....

A day after his birthday, Hope hit eight boundaries and three sixes in a supreme 145-ball innings, though the Windies left it late to secure victory. Asghar Afghan (86), ably supported by Hazratullah Zazai (50) and Mohammad Nabi (50 no) gave Afghanistan hope of salvaging some pride in the series as they set 249-7 from their innings in Lucknow. Afghanistan looked well set three overs into West Indies’ innings - Mujeeb Ur Rahman taking the wickets of Evin Lewis and Shimron Hetmyer in the space of four deliveries....

And only some of it is about the stains from the very end, the investigation into a performance-enhancing drug accusation and a long-ago sexual-impropriety allegation that bubbled back up years later. No, this is his football legacy. Manning retires from an 18-year NFL career with all the major individual passing records, and a reputation as a technically-brilliant quarterback that few can match.

Protests opposing the rule of Lukashenko have taken place both before and after the August 9 election, which has not been recognized internationally. Following the disputed ballot, opposition leader Svetlana Tikhonovskaya left the country. In what was dubbed a “march of the pensioners,” thousands took to the streets of the capital Minsk on Monday, waving the ensign of the opposition, a white flag with a red stripe, while chanting: “Out”....
