Why do algorithms keep showing us content we claim not to want? The answer isn’t manipulation—it’s conflict between our ...

With $500 million in funding and a reported $2.5 billion valuation, Flourish wants to reinvent AI by putting real neurons under the microscope.

Abstract: The energy storage self-scheduling (ESSS) problem is typically formulated as a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) or quadratically constrained programming (QCP) model, reflecting the ...

In a conversation with his friends in Bostan, Alex realized that dried fruit is going to be expensive. So he took his basket and went to the grocery store. His son came to help him to buy the basket ...

Determining the least expensive path for a new subway line underneath a metropolis like New York City is a colossal planning challenge—involving thousands of potential routes through hundreds of city ...

Abstract: We present a simple performance bound for the greedy scheme in string optimization problems. Our approach generalizes the family of greedy curvature bounds established by Conforti and ...

In recent years, the prospect of real-world quantum computing has raised hopes for solving hard combinatorial optimisation problems, leading to tremendous theoretical work on developing and analysing ...

AlphaEvolve uses large language models to find new algorithms that outperform the best human-made solutions for data center management, chip design, and more. Google DeepMind has once again used large ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...

Meta-heuristic optimization algorithms have seen significant advancements due to their diverse applications in solving complex problems. However, no single algorithm can effectively solve all ...
