In the era of big data and artificial intelligence, a new approach has emerged for solving combinatorial optimization ...

About 20 years ago, the industry-wide cost of a new drug was around $100 million (USD). Toward the end of the 1980s, that cost had risen to $250 million. Biological testing had entered the ...

The traveling salesman problem is considered a prime example of a combinatorial optimization problem. Now a Berlin team led by theoretical physicist Prof. Dr. Jens Eisert of Freie Universität Berlin ...

Ten years ago, Stuart L. Schreiber of Harvard University and coworkers reported a technique for making natural-product-like compound collections that featured an unprecedented diversity of structures.

A framework based on advanced AI techniques can solve complex, computationally intensive problems faster and in a more more scalable way than state-of-the-art methods, according to a new study. A ...

Not so long ago, received wisdom in the psychology of trading and investing in financial markets said that the key to success was consistency. Once you found your probabilistic “edge” in markets, you ...

Researchers at the University of Gothenburg have developed a novel Ising machine that utilizes surface acoustic waves as an effective carrier of dense information flow. This approach enables fast, ...
