- Optimal Transport Audio Distance with Learned Riemannian Ground Metrics
In audio generation evaluation, Fréchet Audio Distance (FAD) is a 2-Wasserstein distance with structural constraints for both primitives: the cost is a frozen embedding pullback whose invariance set hides severe artifacts, and the coupling is a Gaussian fit that dilutes rank-1 contamination relative...
- Real-time AI integration for MR to detect artifacts and guide pulse sequence adaptations
Purpose: To present a first-of-its-kind artificial intelligence (AI-)integrated MR pulse sequence that detects out-of-voxel (OOV) artifacts in real-time (within-TR) and responds prospectively by updating the crusher gradient scheme. Methods: Per Excitation Real-time Execution & Guided Responses with Integrated Neural-network Evaluation (PEREGRINE), developed for deployment of deep learning models and sequence updates, operated time-domain (TD) and frequency-domain (FD) convolutional autoencoders that detect OOV artifacts. Scans without (AI-off) and with (AI-on) updates were collected from the prefrontal cortex of healthy volunteers using edited MRS. The degree of OOV contamination (OOV score) was quantified per transient based upon the prevalence of OOV signals in the TD and FD data. OOV scores above a user-defined threshold triggered an update of the gradient scheme, iterating through 48 permutations (6 axis transpositions x 8 polarity flips). Results: Within each 2-second TR, PEREGRI

- IBM and Yotta plan sovereign AI push for Indian enterprises
IBM and Yotta Data Services have announced plans to build an agentic AI platform with sovereign capabilities for enterprises and government organisations in India. The platform is expected to combine IBM’s watsonx Orchestrate with Yotta’s Shakti Cloud infrastructure. It points to how Indian enterprises are beginning to think differently about AI deployment, especially when it comes to sovereignty, local hosting, governance, and control. AI projects are moving beyond experimentation Over the last two years, many Indian organisations have launched AI pilots across customer support, internal automation, analytics, and operations. However, scaling these projects into day-to-day business workflows has remained a challenge. One major reason is the growing concern around where enterprise data sits, how AI models are managed, and whether systems meet local regulatory requirements. The IBM-Yotta partnership aims to address this gap. The proposed platform will allow organisations to deploy and m
