Then it’s kind of a mystery to try to figure out why and how they’re related.” The Riemann hypothesis has proved to be a font ...

Timely reconstruction of epidemic dynamics is essential for public health, and structured coalescent models constitute an essential tool for this purpose. However, statistical and computational ...

Using an advanced Monte Carlo method, Caltech researchers found a way to tame the infinite complexity of Feynman diagrams and solve the long-standing polaron problem, unlocking deeper understanding of ...

Abstract: Network Function Virtualization (NFV) has the potential for cost-efficiency, manage-convenience, and flexibility services but meanwhile poses challenges for the service function chain (SFC) ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...

Abstract: In applied and numerical algebraic geometry, many problems are reduced to computing an approximation to a real algebraic curve. In order to elevate the results of such a computation to the ...

Abstract: Identifying positive influence dominating set (PIDS) with the smallest cardinality can produce positive effect with the minimal cost on a social network. The purpose of this article is to ...

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 ...

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 ...
