While Course and Nair approached their research from a theoretical viewpoint, they were able to demonstrate practical impact by applying their algorithm to problems ranging from modelling fluid flow ...

As it currently stands, the vast majority of the AI advancements and applications you hear about refer to a category of algorithms known as machine learning (see "What is machine learning?").

In a broader sense, many machine learning algorithms are like this party scene, with slight variations in how guests (datapoints) find their friends and arrange themselves at tables (clusters). In a ...

This strays into the area that we call ‘active learning’ (or semi-supervised machine learning, if you prefer) where a computer program’s learning algorithm knows that it can periodically and ...
