Polar codes represent a seminal breakthrough in error-correcting coding, enabling communication systems to approach the theoretical capacity of a channel with low-complexity decoding methods. Their ...

Today is the day: In an effort to boost transparency between the public and the social media platform, CEO Elon Musk has made Twitter’s recommendation algorithm open source…for some reason. It would ...

Convolutional codes represent a cornerstone in modern communications, offering a method for continuously encoding data streams to mitigate errors due to interference and noise. These codes operate by ...

Twitter recently released its algorithm source code on GitHub, which was met with debate and controversy. The release comes to increase transparency and give users a chance to offer feedback on how ...

Twitter announced on Friday that it's open-sourcing the code behind the recommendation algorithm the platform uses to select the contents of the users' For You timeline. However, the code made public ...

Vitalik Buterin proposes using zero-knowledge proofs to make social media algorithms verifiable without exposing code or user ...

One of the many promises Elon Musk made after taking over Twitter was that he would open source Twitter’s algorithm, something that the social media company notoriously kept private before his tenure.

Algorithms are one of the four cornerstones of Computer Science. An algorithm is a plan, a set of step-by-step instructions to solve a problem. If you can tie shoelaces, make a cup of tea, get dressed ...

An algorithm is a list of rules to follow in order to complete a task or solve a problem. The steps in an algorithm need to be in the right order. Think about an algorithm for getting dressed in the ...
