AI could soon spew out hundreds of mathematical proofs that look "right" but contain hidden flaws, or proofs so complex we can't verify them. How will we know if they're right?

Probability underpins AI, cryptography and statistics. However, as the philosopher Bertrand Russell said, “Probability is the ...

A new study published in Nature has found that X's algorithm—the hidden system or "recipe" that governs which posts appear in your feed and in which order—shifts users' political opinions in a more ...

Provided content. One ball on a Plinko board is unpredictable. Drop a thousand and they form a near-perfect bell curve—one of math’s most powerful ideas for 150+ years.

Extracting and analyzing relevant medical information from large-scale databases such as biobanks poses considerable challenges. To exploit such "big data," attempts have focused on large sampling ...

It’s a breakthrough in the field of random walks.

By explicitly modeling each step of a problem and gradually fading away supports, teachers can give students a clear path to mastering new content.

DeepMind's Aletheia is a huge advance in AI-driven mathematical reasoning. It is a research agent built on top of Gemini Deep ...

A marriage of formal methods and LLMs seeks to harness the strengths of both.

In other words, you want to construct a polyhedral torus with faces that are shapes such as triangles or rectangles. Your peculiar-looking shape will be trickier to construct than one with a smooth ...

A production-ready distributed rate limiter supporting five algorithms (Token Bucket, Sliding Window, Fixed Window, Leaky Bucket, and Composite) with Redis backing for high-performance API protection.

Abstract: An open question in Air Traffic Management is what procedures can be validated by simulation where the simulation shows that the probability of undesirable events is below the required level ...
