In computational number theory, Cornacchia's algorithm is an algorithm for solving the Diophantine equation + =, where < and d and m are coprime. The algorithm was described in 1908 by Giuseppe Cornacchia.
Next we need an algorithm to count the number of points on E. Applied to E, this algorithm (Koblitz and others suggest Schoof's algorithm) produces a number m which is the number of points on curve E over F N, provided N is prime. If the point-counting algorithm stops at an undefined expression this allows to determine a non-trivial factor of N.
A model view of the synapse. Synaptic pruning, a phase in the development of the nervous system, is the process of synapse elimination that occurs between early childhood and the onset of puberty in many mammals, including humans. [1]
This makes the test a fast polynomial-time algorithm. However, Fermat numbers grow so rapidly that only a handful of Fermat numbers can be tested in a reasonable amount of time and space.

Lehmer's GCD algorithm, named after Derrick Henry Lehmer, is a fast GCD algorithm, an improvement on the simpler but slower Euclidean algorithm. It is mainly used for big integers that have a representation as a string of digits relative to some chosen numeral system base , say β = 1000 or β = 2 32 .
Moravec's paradox is the observation in the fields of artificial intelligence and robotics that, contrary to traditional assumptions, reasoning requires very little computation, but sensorimotor and perception skills require enormous computational resources.
Kernicterus is rare in adults but is prevalent in newborns with underdeveloped blood-brain barriers and lower albumin binding capacities, which otherwise buffers excess bilirubin in adults. To date, only 4 such cases have been published, with 3 of them associated with CN-2, the milder form of the syndrome.
