Scientists have prototyped a new method for "rationally engineering" enzymes to deliver improved performance. They have devised an algorithm, which takes into account an enzyme's evolutionary history, ...

Building a chemical plant. Developing an airline route. Modeling the shapes of proteins. Each of these actions requires optimization algorithms – the combination of math and theory translated into ...

Proteins are the molecular machines of all living cells and have been exploited for use in many applications, including therapeutics and industrial catalysts. To overcome the limitations of naturally ...

Most computer algorithms today are developed in high-level languages on general-purpose computers. But someday they may be deployed in embedded systems where the development, verification, and ...

As organizations worldwide adopt machine learning across virtually every industry, the demand for machine learning engineers is on the rise. Anyone with “machine learning” in their job title, or even ...

In the opening scene of a strangely serene YouTube video posted this week, colors slide, merge, and morph on screen. Set to an undulating Steve Reich score, the visuals seem appropriately loose and ...
