Adventures in Iterations
In mathematics ‘iterating’ just means applying the same rule over and over again. This can be surprising powerful, leading to useful results in the real world! In this session we’ll meet matrices, explore some ideas in probability and even meet Markov Chains which are at the heart of some modern applications in artificial intelligence.
