Submodular function optimisation has emerged as a cornerstone of contemporary algorithm design, offering a powerful framework to address a broad range of combinatorial problems characterised by the ...

Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research says that when quantum computing becomes generally available, evolutionary algorithms for training huge neural networks could become a very important and ...

Peter Shor didn’t set out to break the internet. But an algorithm he developed in the mid-1990s threatened to do just that. In a landmark paper, Shor showed how a hypothetical computer that exploited ...
