Some algorithms solve problems. This one changed civilization. From guiding satellites to securing your bank account, its influence reaches every corner of technology. It started with a simple insight ...

Quantum algorithms and AI-driven approaches are being leveraged to gain a unified understanding of multi-omics for a drug discovery context. Although AI has proven a powerful tool for drug discovery, ...

Over at Quanta Magazine [Shalma Wegsman] asks What Is the Fourier Transform? [Shalma] begins by telling you a little about Joseph Fourier, the French mathematician with an interest in heat propagation ...

As we listen to a piece of music, our ears perform a calculation. The high-pitched flutter of the flute, the middle tones of the violin, and the low hum of the double bass fill the air with pressure ...

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 ...

Operator learning is a transformative approach in scientific computing. It focuses on developing models that map functions to other functions, an essential aspect of solving partial differential ...
