Computer scientists have written a network flow algorithm that computes almost as fast as is mathematically possible. This algorithm computes the maximum traffic flow with minimum transport costs for ...

Circle detection algorithms form a fundamental pillar in computer vision, enabling the identification of circular features across a wide range of applications from automated industrial inspection to ...

A few years back, Google made waves when it claimed that some of its hardware had achieved quantum supremacy, performing ...

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) -Google said it has developed a computer algorithm that points the way to practical applications for ...

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 ...

If you’ve been making the same commute for a long time, you’ve probably settled on what seems like the best route. But “best” is a slippery concept. Perhaps one day there’s an accident or road closure ...

Daniel Lokshtanov’s work explores the limits of what computers can solve, paving the way for advances in artificial intelligence and computational efficiency.

The natural complexity of the universe should phase out the possibility of some advanced civilization controlling reality ...

Designed to accelerate advances in medicine and other fields, the tech giant’s quantum algorithm runs 13,000 times as fast as ...

A recent study from Oregon State University estimated that more than 3,500 animal species are at risk of extinction because ...
