The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...

Researchers have successfully used a quantum algorithm to solve a complex century-old mathematical problem long considered impossible for even the most powerful conventional supercomputers. The ...

Here's the corrected and polished version: Implementation of randomized greedy algorithms for solving the Knapsack Problem and Traveling Salesman Problem in C++. Educational project demonstrating ...

There’s a familiar look in every college lecture hall. The glazed-over stare of someone just realizing they’re twelve slides wholly behind and lost. The professor keeps talking. The notes don’t make ...

Abstract: In undirected graphs with real non-negative weights, we give a new randomized algorithm for the single-source shortest path (SSSP) problem with running time ...

Abstract: Distributed detection over decentralized baseband architectures has emerged as an important problem in the uplink massive MIMO systems. In this paper, the classic Kaczmarz method is fully ...

The second you start watching a video on YouTube, the site begins building an algorithm of your likes. While the goal of that is to show you content you want to see, it means you'll miss out on so ...

The meteoric rise in power and popularity of machine learning models dependent on valuable training data has reignited a basic tension between the power of running a program locally and the risk of ...
