AI-generated art selected for the covers of esteemed mathematics magazine

Four issues of the News-magazine of the Mathematical Association of America featured Pioneer Scholar’s AI-generated artwork on their covers!

Pioneer Scholar Zora Zhang conducted her research on the Annealing Algorithm, a procedure for optimizing mathematical solutions. The artwork was generated by programming the approximation simulation as part of Pioneer’s interdisciplinary study, incorporating both math and computer science.
