NTT Corporation and the University of Tokyo have devised a new learning algorithm inspired by the information processing of the brain that is suitable for multi-layered artificial neural networks (DNN) using analog operations. This breakthrough will lead to a reduction in power consumption and computation time for AI. The results of this development were published in the British […]

NTT invited me to attend an event they will be hosting in San Francisco, which will explore 6G, next-gen network infrastructure and sustainability. It will be held at the NTT Experience Center and will highlight the Innovative Optical and Wireless Network initiative. IOWN is led through a combined effort from NTT, Intel and Sony. The

How do we test edge computing and make sure that our smart (often smaller) machines are doing what they should be doing? For NTT’s Parm Sandhu, it comes down to many factors, but he is able to pinpoint a number of key trends and practices. In his role as vice president for enterprise 5G products and

Physicist Stephen Wiesner first proposed the idea of quantum money in 1969 but there were details still to be worked out. One of them was a system by which people could check that quantum money stored on a quantum computer was actually created by the official authorities.

As I rev up for all things AI in 2023, I wanted to take a quick look back at my favorite stories, large and small, that I covered in 2022 — starting with my first few weeks at VentureBeat back in April. In August, I enjoyed getting a look at a possible AI hardware future.

Tokyo-based telecommunications giant NTT Corporation announced today it’s developing a technology to power the world’s fastest radio wave propagation—to provide devices with lightning-fast wireless communication. NTT’s innovation—done in collaboration with Tokyo Denki University—is spurred in part by the increasing demands for high-speed, low-latency network connections between communication endpoints, as well as the continued rise in data usage and information flow.

NTT Research, Inc., a division of NTT announced that its Medical & Health Informatics (MEI) Lab has entered a three-year joint research agreement with the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS). NTT Research scientists will work with the Disease Biophysics Group (DBG) at SEAS to engineer a model of the human heart, elucidate fundamental laws of muscular

NTT Research, a global technology startup, has entered into a three-year research partnership with the Cambridge, Mass.-based Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences to engineer a digital model of the human heart. The research agreement began July 1, and the researchers aim for the partnership to help them understand cardiovascular structure-function relationships, according

Researchers at NTT Corp. and the University of Tokyo have developed the first combined battery-and-sensor circuitry from environmentally friendly materials that can transmit a communications signal. The proof-of-concept device is composed of carbon electrodes and wiring and other benign materials, including magnesium and cellulose, in place of metals such as lithium, copper, cobalt, and nickel that are potentially hazardous when carelessly

NTT Research, Inc., a division of NTT, announced that a scientist from its Cryptography and Information Security (CIS) Lab and a colleague from the NTT Social Informatics Laboratories (SIL) have written a pathbreaking paper on quantum advantage. The paper was selected to be presented at the annual IEEE Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science (FOCS), which is taking place

NTT Research announced that a scientist from its Cryptography and Information Security (CIS) Lab and a colleague from the NTT Social Informatics Laboratories (SIL) have written a pathbreaking paper on quantum advantage. The paper was selected to be presented at the annual IEEE Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science (FOCS), which is taking place Oct. 31–Nov. 3 in Denver. The

 NTT Research announced on October 26 that a scientist from its Cryptography and Information Security (CIS) Lab and a colleague from the NTT Social Informatics Laboratories (SIL) have written a pathbreaking paper on quantum advantage. The co-authors of the paper, titled “Verifiable Quantum Advantage without Structure,” are Dr. Takashi Yamakawa, distinguished researcher at NTT SIL and Dr. Mark Zhandry, senior
