Tao: Today there are a lot of very tedious types of mathematics that we don’t like doing, so we look for clever ways to get ...

With reported 3x speed gains and limited degradation in output quality, the method targets one of the biggest pain points in production AI systems: latency at scale.

Researchers from the University of Maryland, Lawrence Livermore, Columbia and TogetherAI have developed a training technique that triples LLM inference speed without auxiliary models or infrastructure ...

Cognitive overload can create a bottleneck during math lessons, but there are simple strategies to clear up students’ brain space for complex problem-solving.

A team of researchers has found a way to steer the output of large language models by manipulating specific concepts inside ...

“Our goal was to build a clear mathematical bridge between abstract algebra and the experience of listening to music,” said study co-author Olga Ibragimova. “When we think of melodies as shapes we can ...

In this video, we explain vectors and derivatives as essential math methods used in physics, showing how they describe motion, direction, and change. Clear explanations and examples help connect ...

Numberphile revived an ancient multiplication trick—halves and doubles—also called Egyptian or Russian math, where you repeatedly halve one number and double the other. After crossing out rows with ...

(THE CONVERSATION) Among high school students and adults, girls and women are much more likely to use traditional, step-by-step algorithms to solve basic math problems – such as lining up numbers to ...

I don’t typically write responses to other opinion pieces, but there was one two weeks ago about new techniques in elementary math education that has inspired me. The main complaint was that there are ...

When it comes to hard problems, computer scientists seem to be stuck. Consider, for example, the notorious problem of finding the shortest round-trip route that passes through every city on a map ...
