A team of computer scientists has come up with a dramatically faster algorithm for one of the oldest problems in computer science: maximum flow. The problem asks how much material can flow through a ...

We show that the homotopy algorithm of Osborne, Presnell, and Turlach (2000), which has proved such an effective optimal path following method for implementing Tibshirani's "lasso" for variable ...

Machine-learning algorithms find and apply patterns in data. And they pretty much run the world. Machine-learning algorithms are responsible for the vast majority of the artificial intelligence ...

The definition of artificial intelligence is constantly evolving, and the term often gets mangled, so we are here to help. What is AI, exactly? The question may seem basic, but the answer is kind of ...
