The algorithm isn't simply returning the values that account for the biggest amount of the change. For example, if most (98%) sales came from the USA, then it would commonly be the case that most of the increase was also in the USA. Yet unless the USA or other countries/regions had...
The algorithm and flowchart are two types of tools to explain the process of a program. This page extends the differences between an algorithm and a flowchart,and how to create your own algorithm and
The "Deep" in this algorithm's name is a reference to deep learning, a collection of techniques in machine learning that use neural networks. One user of such deep learning is DeepMind, an AI company owned by Alphabet (Google's parent company), which in recent years has used a deep neur...
Metawa, Hassan, and Elhoseny (2017) use an intelligent model based on a genetic algorithm (GA) to organize bank lending decisions in a highly competitive environment with a credit crunch constraint. Abedin et al. (2019) use 12 feature selection methods for support vector machine (SVM) ...
First, for every dollar that we give to a beggar, the more profitablewe make begging and, comparatively, the less profitable we makeworking. This is bad, for we want people to work, not beg. Working isproductive while begging is at best neutral and often a burden.Second, the beggar w...
(In 2017, Chinese researchers demonstrated for the first time how quantum encryption could be used to make a very secure video call from Beijing to Vienna.) Does that mean quantum computers are better than conventional ones? Not exactly. Apart from Shor's algorithm, and a search method called...
The first algorithm is nonadaptive and uses graded responses from a prior set of learners. This algorithm is appropriate when the instructor has access to only the learners’ responses after all questions have been solved. The second algorithm adaptively selects the “next best question” for each...
they were born is an algorithm: regardless of how old someone is, if you follow those steps you’ll always get the year they were born. When you hear “algorithm” you probably think of some fancy equation to forecast the weather or help Google search the web, but they can also be ...
SEME might be large, at least in part, because people generally trust computer output more than they trust content in which the human hand is evident (Bogert et al., 2021; Logg et al., 2019). Most people have no idea how computers work or what an algorithm is; as a result,...
They were a viral marketing campaign by the Ask Jeeves search engine to drive publicity around their new search algorithm. Randall thought the sort of people who would be curious enough to go to Google and type them in are probably the sort of people who would like xkcd, so he added the...
