AI’s greatest mathematical successes have come from answers to problems posed by a mid-20th century iconoclast. By examining ...

AI is increasingly being used as collaborators in mathematical research rather than simply as computational tools.

Learning Python can feel like a big task, especially when you’re just starting out. But honestly, the best way to get a handle on it is to just start writing code. We’ve put together some practical ...

David E. Dunning explores how mathematical notation is a social, world-building technology. It’s natural to think of math as being fundamentally abstract. Whether it’s invented or discovered, its ...

Axiom Math is giving away a powerful new AI tool. But it remains to be seen if it speeds up research as much as the company hopes. Axiom Math, a startup based in Palo Alto, California, has released a ...

When it comes to visually understanding mathematical theories or graphing simulation results, the combination of Python's two major libraries, NumPy and Matplotlib, is an incredibly powerful tool.

For the past several years, America has been using its young people as lab rats in a sweeping, if not exactly thought-out, education experiment. Schools across the country have been lowering standards ...

Computers are extremely good with numbers, but they haven’t gotten many human mathematicians fired. Until recently, they could barely hold their own in high school-level math competitions. But now ...

Manually surveying and mapping physical infrastructure is a slow, expensive, and often dangerous job. Whether it's utility poles, cell towers, or city assets, someone has to physically go out and ...

Article subjects are automatically applied from the ACS Subject Taxonomy and describe the scientific concepts and themes of the article. In our recently published article, we compared different ...
