This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Artificial intelligence is making rapid advances in medicine. Already, there are machine learning algorithms that can outperform doctors in some medical fields. There’s only one fairly big problem: experts aren’t quite sure how these algorithms work. While designers know full well what goes into the A-I systems they build and what comes out, the learning part in between is often too complex to comprehend. To their users, machine learning algorithms are effectively black boxes. Now, researchers from the RIKEN Center for Advanced Intelligence Project in Japan are lifting the lid. They’ve developed a deep-learning system that can outperform human experts in predicting whether prostate cancer will reoccur within one year. More importantly, the deep learning system they developed can acquire human-understandable features from unannotated pathology images to offer up critical clues that could help humans make better diagnoses themselves..."

The rest of the transcript, along with a link to the research itself, is available on the resource itself.

After World War II, there was non-violent, political hostility between the United States and the Soviet Union (USSR), which became known as the Cold War. During this contentious time, both nations created rockets for long-range military weaponry. The Cold War catalyzed the expansion of rocket technology and each country’s desire to conquer outer space. Not only did America want to explore one of the last frontiers, it also wanted to claim technological dominance over the USSR and ensure America’s title of superiority in a time of unease and tension. In 1955, the US and the USSR each announced plans to launch a satellite into orbit. Who would be the first to succeed? On October 4, 1957, the USSR launched Sputnik I into orbit, taking the lead in the Space Race. Only four months later, the US successfully launched its own satellite, the Explorer I, into space. In the wake of these first successful orbital space flights, President Dwight D. Eisenhower recommended to the US Congress that a civilian agency should be established to direct non-military space activities. Thus, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was born and the Space Race was underway. Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, the American space program and its new classes of astronauts achieved breakthroughs in science and space exploration—even sending a man to the Moon. This exhibition was created as part of the DPLA’s Digital Curation Program by the following students in Professor Helene Williams's capstone course at the Information School at the University of Washington: Danielle Rios, Dianne Bohach, Jennifer Lam, and Bobbi deMontigny.
