The company is launching a new premium line called Reference that features four bags, ranging from delicate baguettes to roomy totes, priced from $460 to $660. The

America’s next family car might look a lot like a golf cart
For decades, automakers have been designing cars to look like they have faces. Headlights resemble eyes, grilles look like mouths, and the shape of a hood can give a vehicle something resembling an expression. That is, of course, no accident.

The idea is to make us feel something about a car before we ever

Neural Decoding as Cognitive Inference
The brain maintains stable cognition despite continuously changing neural activity. How to extract stable cognitive states from variable neural observations remains a central problem in neural decoding.

Inspired by how the brain infers the world, and specifically by Bayesian brain theory, we recast neural decodi
