Metric spaces form the backbone of modern computational geometry by providing a rigorous framework for measuring distances within abstract sets, while geometric approximation algorithms yield ...

Geometric optimisation and approximation algorithms form a vibrant research area that intersects computational geometry, combinatorial optimisation and algorithm design. Researchers are dedicated to ...

Last year Microsoft and Google both showed that their image-recognition algorithms had learned to best humans. They independently created software that could exceed the average human score on a ...

Ischemic stroke, which occurs when a blood vessel in the brain gets blocked by a clot, is among the leading causes of death worldwide. Fortunately, surgeons now have access to advanced imaging ...

Researchers have developed new software to detect faked photos, using a geometric algorithm to locate inconsistent shadows that are not obvious to the naked eye. The new method debunks claims that the ...
