Last week, Google Research held an online workshop on the conceptual understanding of deep learning. The workshop, which featured presentations by award-winning computer scientists and neuroscientists ...

Medicine makers need to get better at math. Improved mathematical modeling would accelerate the move toward automated processes, cut production times, and reduce costs. Researchers Francesco Destro, ...

The instability of large, complex societies is a predictable phenomenon, according to a new mathematical model that explores the emergence of early human societies via warfare. Capturing hundreds of ...

Researchers have created a mathematical model -- and an accompanying online weight simulation tool -- of what happens when people of varying weights, diets and exercise habits try to change their ...

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers used a novel mathematical model to simulate severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) dynamics inside the host.

The new framework replaces approximations, accurately modeling current crowding and spreading resistance in 2D materials to ...

Climate-driven disturbances such as marine heat waves are rapidly reducing coral cover and degrading reef ecosystems ...
