In this video, we explore why Spotify's shuffle feature isn't truly random and operates based on an algorithm. We discuss the reasons behind our preferences for non-random shuffle, the results of an ...

Researchers have successfully used a quantum algorithm to solve a complex century-old mathematical problem long considered impossible for even the most powerful conventional supercomputers. The ...

Nearly six years after becoming a literary heavyweight with “Read with Jenna,” she’s starting her own publishing venture with Penguin Random House. By Alexandra Alter Jenna Bush Hager, who became one ...

Three books explore the promise and peril of artificial intelligence. A metronome ticks. A record spins. And as a feel-good pop track plays, a giant compactor slowly crushes a Jenga tower of material ...

During the past fifteen years, there has been a tremendous growth of research on randomized (sketching) algorithms for large-scale computations, such as matrix ...

Abstract: In undirected graphs with real non-negative weights, we give a new randomized algorithm for the single-source shortest path (SSSP) problem with running time ...

The prolific researcher found deep connections between randomness and computation and spent a career influencing cryptographers, complexity researchers and more. For more than 40 years, Avi Wigderson ...
