What if the key to unlocking artificial general intelligence is a pattern that already exists, but has yet to be discovered?
This weekend, the Franklin Institute opens its summer exhibition about mathematical patterns that recur in nature. Its centerpiece is a 1,700-square-foot maze of mirrors, set in a grid of equilateral ...
The history of our planet is full of upheavals, some dramatic enough to trigger whole new blocks of geological time. This includes changes between comparatively short divisions like ages and epochs, ...
The PopTech science fellow started by looking at attacks in Iraq, then studied conflicts in different parts of the world, and discovered the same mathematical patterns.
In these models we have a mathematical definition for the phenomenon exhibited: short distances in the network are defined as polylogarithmic in its size, heavy tail degree distribution as a power ...
A simple mathematical model can account for lizard’s green-and-black pattern Tried-and-true Ising model can describe how scales color-switch as the lizard ages.
If achieving artificial general intelligence is indeed a pattern that already exists, uncovering it involves mathematics, the science of patterns.
