Arxiv – Google Deepmind researchers have extended the capabilities of neural networks by coupling them to external memory resources, which they can interact with by attentional processes. The combined ...

Turing machines were first proposed by British mathematician Alan Turing in 1936, and are a theoretical mathematical model of what it means for a system to "be a computer." At a high level, these ...

Barry Cooper asks whether information can be increased through computation, pointing out that Turing computation does not create anything not already in the initial data (Nature 482, 465; 2012). If we ...

Charles Darwin and Alan Turing, in their different ways, both homed in on the same idea: the existence of competence without comprehension. Some of the greatest, most revolutionary advances in science ...

Momentum is gathering behind calls to pardon the father of computer science. BinaryApe You may have read the British Government is being petitioned to grant a posthumous pardon to one of the world’s ...

Turing machines are widely believed to be universal, in the sense that any computation done by any system can also be done by a Turing machine. In a new article, researchers present their work ...
