Penn Engineers have developed an open-source algorithm that combines the speed of AI with the precision of geometry to ...

Abstract: This paper considers the fixed-time distributed optimization problem with consensus constraint and strongly convex local cost functions, and a distributed optimization algorithm involving ...

Abstract: Influence maximization is to extract a small set of nodes from a social network which influences the propagation maximally under a cascade model. In this paper, we propose a memetic ...

For decades, the quantum threat to RSA and ECC encryption has been tied to Shor’s algorithm and the assumption that we would need million-qubit quantum computers to make it practical. A newly ...

mjoindices is a Python package relevant for atmospheric scientists. It provides functionality to compute an index of the Madden-Julian-Oscillation (MJO), particularly the OLR-based MJO index (OMI).

This repository contains the source code for the evaluation platform presented in the paper Magic mirror in my hand, which is the best in the land? An Experimental Evaluation of Index Selection ...

Some algorithms are more efficient than others. We would prefer to chose an efficient algorithm, so it would be nice to have metrics for comparing algorithm efficiency. The complexity of an algorithm ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you’ve been making the same commute for a long time, you’ve probably settled on what seems like the best route. But “best” is a ...
