Computer algorithms have designed highly efficient synthetic enzymes from scratch, with minimal need for tedious hands-on ...

UnitedHealth Group has repeatedly said its algorithm is merely a guidepost for their recoveries. But a STAT investigation has found that inside the company, managers delivered a much different ...

Technology Quantum twist on common computer algorithm promises useful speed boost. Quantum computers have been shown to solve some problems faster than ordinary computers, but so far all these ...

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 ...

Algorithms are one of the four cornerstones of Computer Science. An algorithm is a plan, a set of step-by-step instructions to solve a problem. If you can tie shoelaces, make a cup of tea, get ...

When asked to create a sorting algorithm, AlphaDev came up with one that was 70 per cent faster than the best for lists of five pieces of data and 1.7 per cent faster for lists of over 250,000 items.
