Research team debuts the first deterministic streaming algorithms for non-monotone submodular maximization, delivering superior approximation ratios with minimal memory and real-time throughput on ...

Conventional quantum algorithms are not feasible for solving combinatorial optimization problems (COPs) with constraints in the operation time of quantum computers. To address this issue, researchers ...

What’s the best way to solve hard problems? That’s the question at the heart of a subfield of computer science called computational complexity theory. It’s a hard question to answer, but flip it ...

The library sorting problem is used across computer science for organizing far more than just books. A new solution is less than a page-width away from the theoretical ideal. Computer scientists often ...

Algorithmic risk scores might be obscuring a broader issue with how the judicial system works. Algorithmic risk scores might be obscuring a broader issue with how the judicial system works. is a ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Computer scientists often deal with abstract problems that are hard to comprehend, but an exciting new algorithm matters to anyone who ...
