The British mathematician and pioneer of computing Alan Turing published a paper in 1936 which described a Universal Machine, a theoretical model of a computer processor that would later become known ...

Alan Turing put bounds on what is computable in a famous 1936 paper 1. The Turing machines he presented implement finite algorithms, handling data coded as real numbers. They are deterministic, but ...

Long ReadThe British mathematician, whose fate was both exceptional and tragic, is considered a founding figure for the idea of artificial intelligence. His story, long overlooked, continues to be ...

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 ...

When he invented Turing machines in 1936, Alan Turing also invented modern computing. In 1928, the German mathematicians David Hilbert and Wilhelm Ackermann proposed a question called the ...

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 ...

The hidden history of Alan Turing is just a particularly bizarre example -- one we can expect to become much better known during the 2012 centenary of his birth. (Editor's note: This article was ...
