Identifying Algorithm Type. The first step in reverse engineering is determining whether the algorithm follows a purely random model (such as RNG) or exhibits deterministic characteristics (such as ...

Put your hand under you chin as here comes a 6 months long jaw-dropping reverse engineering work: getting the data back from a (not so) broken SD card. As you can guess from the picture above, [Jos… ...

Isolating ranking factors to see how changes affect ranking has always been the basis of algorithm testing. After updates like Panda and Penguin, reverse engineering and even intentionally triggering ...

All Pixel Watch 3, 2, and 1 owners will receive Wear OS 5.1 version BP1A.250305.019.W8 in the next few weeks, staggered by device and carrier. Google says its enhanced step count algorithm was ...

So, reverse engineering, while it is miles ahead of what many journalists do when it comes to reporting on algorithms, is up against some significant challenges. At NICAR, Pasquale brought up another ...
