Optimization algorithms and metaheuristics constitute a vital area of computational science, offering robust strategies for tackling complex, multidimensional problems across diverse domains. These ...

In the lower part of the figure, it can be seen that L2O leverages on a set of training problem instances from the target optimization problem class to gain knowledge. This knowledge can help identify ...

Real-world optimization problems often require an external “modeling engine” that computes fitnesses or data that are then input to an objective function. These programs often have much longer ...

In a new paper in Science Advances, researchers at JPMorgan Chase, the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory and Quantinuum have demonstrated clear evidence of a quantum ...

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 ...

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 ...
