Advances in AI & Machine Learning
How do you teach AI to fly? With their own highly realistic simulator
The ability to differentiate things like trees, curbs, and glass doors come easily to humans, but it's
still difficult for AI-based systems. Microsoft researchers are aiming to change that by working on a
new set of tools, now available on GitHub, that other researchers and developers can use to train and
test robots, drones and other gadgets for operating autonomously and safely in the real world.
Leading innovation in AI to improve citizen health
How can doctors keep up with the explosion of medical research? The Azure for Research program
provided an Azure grant to University College London to quickly develop and deploy AI solutions
in the cloud.
Generating computer code based on a user's intent with deep learning
How Microsoft researchers are helping keep AI accurate and unbiased
We’re hiring in AI!
Researchers in AI are pursuing computing advances to create intelligent machines that complement
human reasoning to augment and enrich our experience and competencies.
Minecraft and AI: Enabling technology that can collaborate with humans
Learn more about Project Malmo, a platform that uses the world of Minecraft as a testing ground for
advanced artificial intelligence research and innovation.
Towards quantum computing
New to quantum? Here's a primer.
Quantum Computing 101: An introduction to the mind-bending world of quantum computing.
Station Q
Station Q represents Microsoft’s global effort to bring together the world’s mathematicians,
computer scientists, quantum physicists, and engineers to build a scalable, fault-tolerant, universal
quantum computer.
With quantum computing simulator, a sneak peak into the future of computing Microsoft Research blog
Quantum computing at Microsoft - meet the team
"Quantum computing could solve problems that would take today's computers
eons..." - read more about The Quest for a Quantum Future
Language-Integrated Quantum Operations: LIQUi|>
LIQUi|> is a software architecture and tool suite for quantum computing. It includes a programming
language, optimization and scheduling algorithms, and quantum simulators. LIQUi|> can be used to
translate a quantum algorithm written in the form of a high-level program into the low-level
machine instructions for a quantum device.
Using computing to fight cancer
How Microsoft computer scientists and researchers are working to “solve”
cancer
Jasmin Fisher doesn’t want to cure cancer. She wants to solve it - and she believes it’s
possible in her lifetime.
Video: Programming cells
If scientists can understand cancer and the immune systems as well as they understand how to make
Microsoft Word run on a PC, they might be able to equip the immune system to mount a powerful
response to cancer on its own.
Project Hanover: Parsing the world's genetic knowledge
Meet the researchers: Biological Computation Group
Blog: Molecular biology meets computer science tools in new system for CRISPR
A team of researchers has developed a new system that allows researchers to more quickly and
effectively use the powerful gene editing tool CRISPR.
Video: Using technology to personalize cancer treatment
Machine learning is helping doctors automatically sort fragmented patient information to find the
most relevant pieces of data to define the best treatment plan for their patients.
Lowering the barriers to artificial intelligence​
Unleash the Power of AI for Everyone
Today, we are changing how companies approach automatic translation by leveraging our artificial
intelligence expertise to enable anyone to quickly and easily customize translation systems, even
without large amounts of previously translated sentences.
