For Bayesians, creating the master algorithm boils down to efficiently implementing Bayes's theorem, a mathematical rule for updating our degree of belief in a hypothesis when we see new evidence.

The real challenge is to design an algorithm that will solve all the different problems these approaches try to solve — that single algorithm will be the “master algorithm.” ...

Some researchers dream of solving all mysteries with a common method—but a mathematical paradox may keep such solutions out of reach ...

This New Algorithm Could Turbocharge How We Solve Cold Cases With DNA Forensic genetic genealogy is what allowed investigators to crack the Golden State Killer case.

Cornell University researchers have developed an algorithm designed to visualize models of the universe in order to solve some of physics' greatest mysteries.

D-Wave quantum annealers solve problems classical algorithms struggle with The latest claim of a clear quantum supremacy solves a useful problem.

Our method is a generalization of Rutishauser's LR-method [20] for the standard eigenvalue problem Ax = λx and closely resembles the QZ-algorithm given by Moler and Stewart [13] for the generalized ...
