The algorithm is able to re-discover older matrix multiplication algorithms and improve upon its own to discover newer and faster algorithms. “AlphaTensor is the first AI system for discovering novel, ...

Matrix multiplication is at the heart of many machine learning breakthroughs, and it just got faster—twice. Last week, DeepMind announced it discovered a more efficient way to perform matrix ...

DeepMind’s paper also pointed out that AlphaTensor discovers a richer space of matrix multiplication algorithms than previously thought — up to thousands for each size.

High-performance matrix multiplication remains a cornerstone of numerical computing, underpinning a wide array of applications from scientific simulations to machine learning. Researchers ...

Tensor for matrix multiplication and algorithms: here multiplication of 2 x 2 matrices. Entries equal to 1 are purple, 0 entries are semi-transparent.
