Many aspects of modern applied research rely on a crucial algorithm called gradient descent. This is a procedure generally used for finding the largest or smallest values of a particular mathematical ...

Twitter has been trialing an unprecedented method to find the hidden biases in its own algorithms. The social media platform has enrolled external researchers in a one-of-a-kind competition, in which ...

When Edsger W. Dijkstra published his algorithm in 1959, computer networks were barely a thing. The algorithm in question found the shortest path between any two nodes on a graph, with a variant ...

If you use Twitter regularly, you must’ve come across celebrities as food tweet threads. Some examples are Rihanna as Indian food and Olly Alexander as cakes. The idea is to match the look and color ...

This guide is designed to explain what an algorithm is and how they are used. In the ever-evolving and vast landscape of technology, the term “algorithm” consistently stands out as a key idea that ...

In algorithms, as in life, negativity can be a drag. Consider the problem of finding the shortest path between two points on a graph — a network of nodes connected by links, or edges. Often, these ...
