Physicists turn particles in chaotic orbits into liquid computers — but this fluid hardware still trails memristor rivals
Tech Industry Physicists turn particles in chaotic orbits into liquid computers — but this fluid hardware still trails memristor rivals News By Luke James Published 26 July 2026 A fluid array of micro‑oscillators can tackle forecasting and stealth anomaly detection with surprising finesse.

The array predicted a chaotic Mackey-Glass series and picked out anomalies that leave a signal's mean, variance, and short-time autocorrelation untouched, scoring an F1 of 0.90 on that harder task.
