We are all good people.We have our own set of preferences and we all have our own morals.But, how does our brain react to the things which were once believed to be your moral principles. The very nature that separates human beings from other species is the compassion and other moral principles.But, researchers at MIT think otherwise.MIT researchers have identified that human beings tend to do bad things when we are associated with a particular group.  For example, bullying is something you hate, you may be someone who never bullies anyone.But when you are in a particular group and then you may more incline towards bullying your peers. Groupssssss Human beings live with like-minded ones.That's why we have groups, community, countries.In order to know more about the group dynamics, researchers invited subjects into their lab.The purpose of the research was to hit a button if they see the stuff related to social media.The subjects also saw their personalized stu...

The inability to interpret the words is called Dyslexia.Children suffering from dyslexia generally tend to have problems while interpreting words.The possibility of having dyslexia is very high.One in five students is known to be suffering from dyslexia.The reason behind the dyslexic students helps us in the better understanding and eventually will help in their treatment. MIT scientists have identified a distinctive brain pattern which tells why dyslexic people have the inability to read and interpret new words.The ability to learn new things is mainly due to the plasticity of the brain.The study on dyslexic brains suggests that there is a decrease in the plasticity of the brain. Plasticity The MIT scientists used MRI scans of young students who have a difficulty in learning.The words were either read or listened with the help of speakers.The MRI scans show distinctive patterns in the brain activity.In nondyslexic people, areas of the brain that are involved in language show...

Artificial Intelligence is slowly taking over the world with its abilities.They are able to do this with the help of machine learning systems called neural networks.Understanding the working of these systems can help in transforming the way artificial intelligence works.Moreover, we will be able to improve them and build better machines. The researchers from MIT computer and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory have shown a new way to know neural network that applies to the system that can text as input and produces a string of symbols as output.They believe that this technique can be used as a form of translator for online natural language processing systems.In fact, this technique can also be used for interpreting black box -text processing systems. The Test The researchers applied this technique to 3 different types of natural language processing systems.The first one was a simple pronunciation while the second one was a set of translators, one human, and the other one was a...

Negotiations are often successful with our ability to win the arguments.The ability to negotiate and make our opponent accepting our demands can lead to many successful meetings.Many companies mainly focus on their ability to make their investors believe in them to survive.So what are the main things that can lead to a successful board meeting? Is it a weak opponent????  or Is it your strong negotiating skills???  In order to find the find underlying assumptions of a successful deal, researchers at MIT have found a way to know this.Professors at MIT Sloan school of management have found a way.The study shows that the mood of each party is responsible for the success of a negotiation.To find more about the things affecting the negotiations, researchers invited undergrad students and employees of a shipping company who undertook repeated negotiations on fuel prices. The results were interesting... The ones who felt pride about their skills in the first round su...

Autistic children have a problem while communicating with others.But, it is still unclear why this happens.The important question is Are poor social skills are associated with Autism or do autistic children suffer from special linguistic disorders?? Researchers at MIT have found that the children suffering from Autism generally find it difficult to understand some of the grammar.The children suffered from Autism were unable to understand reflexive pronouns.This tells us that the children suffering from Autism indeed may suffer from a biological disorder. In order to find out the reason behind this, they first considered the learning stages in children.Researchers believe that the creation of a timeline will help them in understanding the learning stages of autistic children.Until recently they found that the learning stages of autistic children will be different from that of a typical child.The inability to understand some grammatical constructions has led to better understanding...

Our Brain is a complex machine with millions of operations being performed to keep our lives moving.Autism is one of the few disorders that can change the way the brain works.Autism is characterized by various symptoms like hypersensitivity to sound, repetitive behavior and difficulty in interacting with others.MIT scientists have put forth a new study that suggests that Autism is due to inability to predict the events.Scientists say that for an autistic child the world may seem magical due to their inability to predict the events.Based on the reports from the parent's autistic children insisted in a very controlled and predictable environment. Most people have the ability to predict the events based on the previous interactions with the person.But, the autistic children may be unable to predict the event.To find the reason behind this reason, researchers found that components of the brain like basal ganglia, the nucleus accumbens, and cerebellum.These structures were found to b...

21st century is full of machine lerning and artificial intelligence.Sooner or later, machines will be able to think efficiently and faster than us.Our Brain looks like perfectly coded machine which perceives,processes and transmits information.Machine learning is evolving and now consumer decision with messy data can be handled carefully. How does this help HealthCare?? HealthCare is a major issue with many countries unable to provide basic healthcare.Choosing the right medicine is always a tricky one.Many forums and blogs are flooded with questions from consumers about choosing the right medicine.MIT spinout dMetriics believes that this information is a treasure trove for healthcare.The startup has developed a platform called Decision Making which uses machine learning and language processing. How Does It Work??? Let's imagine that a person wants to know about drug C  and the expression goes in this way "I was prescribed by the doctor to use drug A, but after ...
