Some of the models used to forecast everything from financial trends to animal populations in an ecosystem are incorrect, according to an Idaho State University statistician.This post was originally published on this site

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly prevalent, integrated into phone apps, search engines and social media platforms as well as supporting myriad research applications. Of particular interest in recent decades is a type of AI machine […]

Machine learning models are designed to take in data, to find patterns or relationships within those data, and to use what they have learned to make predictions or to create new content. The quality of […]

The Maya Civilization, from Central America, was one of the most advanced ancient civilizations, known for its significant achievements in astronomy and mathematics. This includes accurate calendars and detailed celestial records, but scientists don’t fully […]

Australia’s engineering skills gap and labor shortage is the highest it’s been for more than a decade. New Swinburne research could explain why.This post was originally published on this site

How many coins can touch one coin, or how many basketballs can “kiss” one basketball at the same time? This seemingly playful question lies at the heart of the famous kissing number problem, a mathematical […]

As artificial intelligence (AI) takes on increasingly critical roles—from managing power grids to piloting autonomous vehicles—making sure these systems are safe has never been more important. But how can we be certain that the AI […]

Algorithms that identify influential people in social networks can help maximize the reach of messages, but a modeling study published in PNAS Nexus shows that those same algorithms can disseminate information inequitably, potentially exacerbating existing […]

Penn Engineers have developed a mathematical “Rosetta Stone” that translates atomic and molecular movements into predictions of larger-scale effects, like proteins unfolding, crystals forming and ice melting, without the need for costly, time-consuming simulations or […]
