    There are some new inventions in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). Let's have a look. 

    Invention 1:A system to identify Parkinson's disease

    The system works by measuring a person's breathing patterns during sleep. The researchers noted that early signs of Parkinson's disease are not easy to discover. But the team said the experiments showed that with just one night of sleep, the AI system can correctly identify Parkinson's disease up to 86% of the time. 

    Invention 2: A tool to interpret pig emotions

    The scientists developed an AI-driven algorithm to identify a series of emotions the pigs could be experiencing. The study centered on more than 7, 000 audio recordings of pigs in different situations. The researchers said the tool can lead to further systems farmers can use to improve the productivity and well-being of their animals. 

    Invention 3: A system to identify and predict smells

    The scientists built on past research to produce a brain-like technology model to create a"principal odor map" to identify molecules related to smells. The team said such a system can be used across many different fields, including the healthcare, food and fragrance industries, The researchers reported that the system can be used to help fight one of the world's biggest health problems--diseases spread through insects.

    Invention 4: A tool to fill in missing words in ancient writings

    The tool, called Ithaca, is designed to help historians repair the writings and identify when and where they were written. The team said that when historians worked on their own, the success rate for repairing damaged inscriptions was about 25%. But when humans teamed up with Ithaca to assist in their work, the success rate jumped to 72%. 

    1. (1) Which invention can help farmers increase income?
      A . Invention 1. B . Invention 2. C . Invention 3. D . Invention 4.
    2. (2) What do invention 1 and invention 3 have in common?
      A . They are good for people's health. B . They should be used during sleep. C . They can cure people of many diseases. D . They focus on the research on smells.
    3. (3) How does invention 4 help historians?
      A . By recovering their health. B . By improving their accuracy, C . By identifying their writings. D . By stimulating their emotions.
