MicroAlgo Inc. announced its research on the Quantum Information Recursive Optimization (QIRO) algorithm, which aims to address complex combinatorial optimization problems using quantum computing.

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 ...

Optimization seeks to find the best. It could be to design a process that minimizes capital or maximizes material conversion, to choose operating conditions that maximize throughput or minimize waste, ...

As renewable power rapidly reshapes global electricity systems, engineers face a growing challenge: how to operate increasingly complex grids with ...

We often have good instincts about who to talk to — strangers, I mean. It’s unclear why we feel drawn to some people and disinclined to interact with others. For the sake of argument, let’s agree it’s ...

Artificial intelligence has given us algorithms capable of recognizing faces, diagnosing disease, and of course, crushing computer games. But even the smartest algorithms can sometimes behave in ...
