Three new books warn against turning into the person the algorithm thinks you are. Like a lot of Netflix subscribers, I find that my personal feed tends to be hit or miss. Usually more miss. The ...

Through data, algorithms communicate with their environments and get to “know about” and “learn from” what is happening around them. Algorithms without living data are no more than sheer mathematical ...

Machine learning is based on the idea that a system can learn to perform a task without being explicitly programmed. Machine learning has a wide range of applications in the finance, healthcare, ...

• A new AI machine learning algorithm capable of predicting planetary orbits that may one day help accelerate physics research in other areas such as renewable energy. • Strikingly, the algorithms ...

The following essay is reprinted with permission from The Conversation, an online publication covering the latest research. People’s daily interactions with online algorithms affect how they learn ...

MIT researchers created a periodic table of machine learning that shows how more than 20 classical algorithms are connected. The new framework sheds light on how scientists could fuse strategies from ...
