Specifically, the AI was able to make progress on a complex problem called the Andrews–Curtis conjecture, which has stumped ...

The word “algorithm” can sometimes seem like a word designed to scare people away from math classes, much like the words “calculus”, “Fourier transform”, or “engineering exam”.

A game of chess requires its players to think several moves ahead, a skill that computer programs have mastered over the ...

I'm Cathy O'Neil. I'm a math nerd, data scientist, and author. When you think about algorithms in the criminal justice system, you have to really think about the data and how the data is built.

The mathematics behind artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) rely on linear algebra, calculus, probability, ...

In order to find rare processes from collider data, scientists use computer algorithms to determine the type and properties of particles based on the faint signals that they leave in the detector.

A game of chess requires its players to think several moves ahead, a skill that computer programs have mastered over the years. Back in 1996, an IBM ...
