A new quantum-inspired algorithm has cracked a problem so massive that conventional supercomputers struggle to even approach it. Researchers used the method to simulate extraordinarily complex quantum ...
The National Institutes of Health failed to protect brain scans that an international group of fringe researchers used to argue for the intellectual superiority of white people. Credit...Ben Denzer ...
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: A flexible job-shop scheduling problem with lot streaming (FJSP-LS) is an extension of flexible job-shop scheduling problems (FJSPs). In it, jobs are allowed to be split into multiple ...
Abstract: Recent studies have been conducted actively on scheduling in a parcel delivery system using a truck and drones to deliver parcels more effectively. In logistics, it is necessary to provide ...
A key question in artificial intelligence is how often models go beyond just regurgitating and remixing what they have learned and produce truly novel ideas or insights. A new project from Google ...
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 ...
Right now, quantum computers are small and error-prone compared to where they’ll likely be in a few years. Even within those limitations, however, there have been regular claims that the hardware can ...
