Description

Students at the Salk Institute in La Jolla are using a deep-learning software called SLEAP to learn more about the development of some diseases. The software uses artificial intelligence to track and quantify body language in animals, humans and plants to find patterns that predict the progression of cancer and ALS, commonly known as Lou Gehrig's disease. Salk fellow Talmo Pereira developed this software and is teaching San Diego students how to use it. He said his initial idea sparked from the computer-generated imagery in movies like 'Avatar' or 'Shrek'.
