Dijkstra’s algorithm was long thought to be the most efficient way to find a graph’s best routes. Researchers have now proved that it’s “universally optimal.” ...

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

Scientists used IBM's R2 Heron quantum processor to predict the secondary protein structure of a 60-nucleotide-long mRNA sequence.

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 ...

Three computer scientists have disproved a long-standing conjecture about a fundamental problem involving imperfect information.

A real-world example of an optimization problem could help ground some wacky terms like superposition and entanglement.

The AI field is working toward developing algorithms that humans can better understand. But for now, we're still in the dark.

The findings, published in IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, present a way to protect sensitive videos from rare but extremely powerful computers.
