According to Hall's Marriage Theorem, a computer algorithm can correctly assign brides to grooms for optimum happiness. Dating services use computer programs to match prospective mates, but group matching by list is pure math theory.

Can one Turing machine emulate another? Are Turing machines guaranteed to finish a task? As Tolkien said about the advice that elves provide, the answer is “both yes and no.” Essentially, the Universal Turing machine represents the ability for a “computer” to manipulate a program just as it deals...

The ACM Turing Award winner for 2011 is Judea Pearl. This computing award has been presented annually since 1966, with multiple recipients in some years. This year’s winner has advanced artificial intelligence by improving the way in which AI programs acquire additional information, among other things. The first winner...

Alan Turing (1912-1954) “invented” the Turing machine (TM) as a powerful theoretical model for mathematicians exploring rules-based mathematics. The Non-deterministic Turing machine, or NTM, extends the basic concept by permitting multiple instructions for one state-input combination. The Deterministic Turing Machine A Turing machine has a finite number of states, symbols and instructions. A...
