Quantum computers promise to speed calculations dramatically in some key areas such as computational chemistry and high-speed networking. But they're so different from today's computers that ...

In algorithms, as in life, negativity can be a drag. Consider the problem of finding the shortest path between two points on a graph — a network of nodes connected by links, or edges. Often, these ...

MIT researchers have recently unveiled an innovative framework that organizes artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms in a way that mirrors the periodic table of elements. This new “periodic table” ...
