The Rubik’s Cube has been around for decades. I’ve toyed with the cube, probably in the very late ‘80s or early ‘90s, but never imagined being able to solve one. But wouldn’t it be satisfying if I ...

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 ...

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, ...

You should be able to complete this step just by playing around with the cube. Make sure that the edges of the cross match the center squares on the adjacent sides. Step 2: Finish First Layer Step 3: ...

Why it matters: Solving a puzzle box is not the only problem autodidactic iteration can solve. The deep-learning algorithms used in Deep Cube can be applied in other fields that require complex ...

Solving a Rubik’s Cube with two hands is hard for most people. Solving a Rubik’s Cube with one hand is even harder. Harder still: Designing a lone robot hand capable of solving a Rubik’s Cube all by ...

Yet another bastion of human skill and intelligence has fallen to the onslaught of the machines. A new kind of deep-learning machine has taught itself to solve a Rubik’s Cube without any human ...
