Ever since the Strassen algorithm was published in 1969, computer science has been on a quest to surpass its speed of multiplying two matrices. While matrix multiplication is one of algebra’s ...

Matrix multiplication is at the heart ... parts of it simultaneously with a special algorithm. In 1969, a German mathematician named Volker Strassen discovered the previous-best algorithm for ...

We explored how modern artificial-intelligence (AI) techniques could advance the discovery of matrix multiplication algorithms. Strassen’s work showed that matrix-multiplication algorithms can ...

The new version of AlphaZero discovered a faster way to do matrix multiplication ... algorithms were devised in this way. But none were able to improve on long-standing results like Strassen ...
