Ever since the Rubik’s Cube was released, it’s taunted almost a half billion tinkerers who think they can crack its confounding mysteries, only to be stymied by its maddening secrets. Now, it’s time ...
The simple Rubik's Cube is a harder problem than most people realize. Using the currently provided best algorithm for solving the cube, for example, would take the computer you're reading this on now ...
No matter how mixed-up it is, the Rubik's Cube can be solved in 20 moves or fewer, say a team of researchers who used computer time donated by Google to run complex algorithms to prove it. That means ...
Fancy algorithms capable of solving a Rubik’s Cube have appeared before, but a new system from the University of California, Irvine uses artificial intelligence to solve the 3D puzzle from scratch and ...
Solving a Rubik’s Cube doesn’t have to be complicated. In this video, I break down the easiest method step-by-step, making it simple for beginners to follow along and finally crack the cube. From the ...
BEAVERTON, Ore. (KOIN) — Most kids can’t wait for the final bell of the school day. But at Aloha Huber Park Elementary in Beaverton, some students stay after school to learn about algorithms — through ...
We’ve mastered the Rubik’s Cube. By we, though, I don’t necessarily mean that you and I have figured out how to solve the classic puzzle, but other members of humanity have certainly shown the Cube ...
The Rubik’s Cube looks like a simple kids’ toy, but anyone who’s tried to line up the block’s colors knows how challenging it is. For experts, the current record is about three and a half seconds to ...
Researchers have developed an AI algorithm which can solve a Rubik's Cube in a fraction of a second, according to a study published in the journal Nature Machine Intelligence. The system, known as ...
A machine has taught itself to solve a Rubik’s Cube without human assistance, according to a group of UC Irvine researchers. Two algorithms developed by the researchers, collectively called Deep Cube, ...
