The title may not sound scientific but it turns out cosmic cats are a great way. To explain radio interferometry, a notoriously tricky topic, so I have good reason for the quirky wording. This is because interferometers are like broken telescopes. See, here's the problem in astronomy: bigger is always better. The...This ...

I was curious about what would happen if I asked the network to dream about the cosmic microwave background. What is Deep Dreaming? With many layers. So it seems Google has had the most success with a machine learning algorithm that tries to imitate the human brain. Is excellent so I won't repeat it here but will ra...
