UK agrees drone defence plan with four EU allies

BBC News

Britain is to develop new air defence weapons alongside the EU's four biggest military powers, deepening ties with the European defence sector. The project will invite manufacturers in the UK, Germany, France, Italy and Poland to submit plans to build low-cost missiles and autonomous drones. The allies are pledging a speedy process to build the weapons together, inspired by Ukraine's development of cheap drones to counter attacks from Russia. The UK's Ministry of Defence (MoD) says the programme will prioritise a lightweight, affordable surface-to-air weapon, with the first project to be delivered by next year. The plan, announced at a meeting of the five countries' defence ministers in the Polish city of Krakow, marks a boost to UK-Europe ties after the failure of talks last year over UK participation in the EU's new €150bn (£130bn) defence fund.

We show that any (possibly non-private) learning rule can be effectively transformed to a private learning rule with only a polynomial overhead in the mistake bound.



Antarctica has a 'gravity hole'

Popular Science

Environment Climate Change Antarctica has a'gravity hole' The geological oddity has existed since dinosaurs roamed the Earth. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. A "gravity hole" beneath Antarctica sounds like the plot to a bad sci-fi movie, but it's a very real situation deep beneath the Earth's surface stretching back tens of millions of years. The phenomenon thankfully isn't as apocalyptic as it sounds, either. In fact, researchers say these complex interactions between rock densities, gravitational pull, and sea levels are actually helping them understand how the southernmost continent's ice sheets evolved, and what their influences mean for the planet's climate.




Incorporating Geographical and Temporal Contexts into Generative Commonsense Reasoning

Neural Information Processing Systems

Recently, commonsense reasoning in text generation has attracted much attention. Generative commonsense reasoning is the task that requires machines, given a group of keywords, to compose a single coherent sentence with commonsense plausibility. While existing datasets targeting generative commonsense reasoning focus on everyday scenarios, it is unclear how well machines reason under specific geographical and temporal contexts.
