The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. In 1917, the Japanese mathematician Sōichi Kakeya posed what at first seemed like nothing more than a fun exercise in geometry. Lay an ...
Video: What about shape data? How does that factor into new AI/ML models? We've heard a lot – an amazing amount, actually – about data science applications for AI, with media like images, videos, ...
Computers are working to solve an age-old geometry problem. Humans can’t “square the circle” by hand, which was proven in the 1800s. Computer solutions involve infinity, complexity, and some ...
