With AlphaTensor, DeepMind Technologies has presented an AI system that is supposed to independently find novel, efficient and provably correct algorithms for complex mathematical tasks. AlphaTensor ...

Mathematicians love a good puzzle. Even something as abstract as multiplying matrices (two-dimensional tables of numbers) can feel like a game when you try to find the most efficient way to do it.

Familiarity with linear algebra is expected. In addition, students should have taken a proof-based course such as CS 212 or Math 300. Tensors, or multiindexed arrays, generalize matrices (two ...

Machine learning techniques that make use of tensor networks could manipulate data more efficiently and help open the black ...
