A new artificial intelligence (AI) method called BioPathNet helps researchers systematically search large biological data ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Imagine a town with two widget merchants. Customers prefer cheaper widgets, so the merchants must compete to set the lowest price.

All of modern mathematics is built on the foundation of set theory, the study of how to organize abstract collections of objects. But in general, research mathematicians don’t need to think about it ...

As the world races to build artificial superintelligence, one maverick bioengineer is testing how much unprogrammed intelligence may already be lurking in our simplest algorithms to determine whether ...

Imagine a town with two widget merchants. Customers prefer cheaper widgets, so the merchants must compete to set the lowest price. Unhappy with their meager profits, they meet one night in a ...

Children as young as 4 years old are capable of finding efficient solutions to complex problems, such as independently inventing sorting algorithms developed by computer scientists. The scientists ...

The polarising impact of social media isn’t just the result of bad algorithms – it is inevitable because of the core components of how the platforms work, a study with AI-generated users has found. It ...

A Python implementation of a graph isomorphism algorithm based on gossip fingerprinting. The algorithm computes structural fingerprints for graph vertices to determine isomorphism. The gossip ...
