For months, scientists and public officials have relied upon computer-based models to try to predict the trajectory or the coronavirus outbreak. But models are not crystal balls, and all of them ...

Can a Computer Devise a Theory of Everything? It might be possible, physicists say, but not anytime soon. And there’s no guarantee that we humans will understand the result.

To put these ideas to the test, the researchers turned to Google's Sycamore 2 computer, loading it with a bare-bones model of a simple holographic universe that contained two quantum entangled ...

Which is why mathematicians, computer scientists and other researchers are increasingly focusing on ways to generalize graph theory — in its many guises — to explore higher-order phenomena. The last ...

Kenneth Merz, Ph.D., of Cleveland Clinic's Center for Computational Life Sciences and a team are exploring how quantum ...

What the computer discovered was that the process requires three known molecules and two proteins that were previously unknown. This discovery, says Levin, "represents the most comprehensive model ...

Northwestern Engineering faculty and students participated in the annual forum for advances in theory, empirics, and ...

The computer model then considers the options open to the various players, ... Game-theory software played an important role in finding Osama bin Laden's hideout in Abbottabad, ...

But a computer might work this out in minutes, as a population of 1,000 gazelles and a group of, say, 150 hyenas can be followed over thousands of simulated generations. Matching theory to observation ...

Schrödinger’s 3D model has been the foundation of color theory for more than 100 years. Scientists and developers apply it when seeking to perfect the digital representation of colors on the ...

Chialvo envisions self-organized criticality providing a broader, more fundamental theory for neuroscientists, like those found in physics. He believes it could be used to model the mind in all its ...
