A few years back, Google made waves when it claimed that some of its hardware had achieved quantum supremacy, performing ...

Data augmentation is required for the implementation of many Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms. The inclusion of augmented data can often lead to conditional distributions from well-known ...

Multiple facets of technology are trending towards artificial intelligence these days, in applications both big and small. As that's been happening, graphics processing units (GPUs) have taken on the ...

Rice University computer scientists have overcome a major obstacle in the burgeoning artificial intelligence industry by showing it is possible to speed up deep learning technology without specialized ...

Algorithms are the sets of steps necessary to complete computation. Algorithms are the sets of steps necessary to complete computation - they are at the heart of what our devices actually do. And this ...

Machine learning is growing ever more sophisticated, thanks to algorithms which pit two artificial intelligences against each other. These algorithms, known as generative adversarial networks (GANs), ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I write about the broad intersection of data and society. AI today is described in breathless terms as computer algorithms that ...

Security researchers have successfully broken one of the most secure encryption algorithms, 4096-bit RSA, by listening -- yes, with a microphone-- to a computer as it decrypts some encrypted data. The ...

Petty criminals had better watch out. A computer vision system has been developed that detects suspicious behaviour in CCTV footage as it happens. The system can then alert CCTV operators to intervene ...
