An engineer by training, he used systems theory and quantitative analysis to examine criminal behavior, revealing the ...

Neuromorphic computers modeled after the human brain can now solve the complex equations behind physics simulations — something once thought possible only with energy-hungry supercomputers. The ...

LLMs have recently helped find solutions to a number of minor longstanding problems. But a new plan called First Proof is really putting them to the test ...

At CERN’s Large Hadron Collider on the edge of Geneva, scientists have reported a surprising twist in the behavior of matter. Collisions inside the 27‑kilometer ring have produced what researchers ...

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

AI became powerful because of interacting mechanisms: neural networks, backpropagation and reinforcement learning, attention, training on databases, and special computer chips.

Dyscalculia, characterized by deficits in number sense and calculation skills, affects approximately 5%–7% of the population ...

Taback, the Isaac Henry Wing Professor of Mathematics, was announcing the visit of John Urschel to campus. Formerly an ...

These days, large language models can handle increasingly complex tasks, writing complex code and engaging in sophisticated reasoning. But when it comes to four-digit multiplication, a task taught in ...

In a world run by computers, there is one algorithm that stands above all the rest. It powers search engines, encrypts your data, guides rockets, runs simulations, and makes the modern digital ...

American college students can’t solve basic math problems or write grammatical sentences, forcing some students to enroll in college classes that teach elementary-school concepts, according to a study ...
