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 decades, computer scientists working on negative-weight graphs tried to match the speed of Dijkstra’s algorithm with similar “combinatorial” algorithms. These involve discrete operations — like ...

A team of researchers from Tri Alpha Energy Inc. and Google has developed an algorithm that can be used to speed up experiments conducted with plasma. In their paper published in the journal ...

Computer scientists have long suspected that there should be an approximation algorithm that outperforms Christofides’ algorithm. After all, his simple and intuitive algorithm isn’t always such an ...

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 ...

A novel computer-based algorithm can track the progress of hair loss in patients with various types of alopecia, according to a study.“Hair loss impacts so many people,” Elena Bernardis, PhD ...

A special artificial intelligence (AI)-based computer algorithm created by Mount Sinai researchers was able to learn how to identify subtle changes in electrocardiograms (also known as ECGs or ...

Quantum computer succeeds where a classical algorithm fails Quantum computers coupled with traditional machine learning show clear benefits.

One computer scientist’s “stunning” proof is the first progress in 50 years on one of the most famous questions in computer science.
