A canonical problem in computer science is to find the shortest route to every point in a network. A new approach beats the ...

DeepMind’s AlphaDev adopted an unconventional approach to uncover faster algorithms by venturing into the realm of computer assembly instructions — a domain seldom explored by humans.

Quantum computing could speed up AI training and inference once the technology matures. IBM's quantum computing track record ...

MIT's algorithm can determine if it's better to slow down, even if the competition overtakes it, to be faster later. Project researchers believe algorithms of the sort they've developed are an ...

In algorithms, as in life, negativity can be a drag. Consider the problem of finding the shortest path between two points on a graph — a network of nodes connected by links, or edges. Often, these ...
