Let’s look at an example of recursion in action where its use really simplifies things because it is natural and necessary. Suppose you have a binary tree, i.e. data that starts at a root node and ...

Recursion is interesting from the point of view of complexity theory and computer science in general because it is the natural way of implementing algorithms that take exponential time. This isn't ...

Recurrent neural networks were proven to be Turing universal in the 1990s, motivating computational complexity studies of spiking networks, neural Turing machines with differentiable activations, and ...
