A data engineering perspective on why restructuring a single Excel formula can reduce calculation time from 30 minutes to seconds — and why the same algorithmic thinking applies to lookup functions, ...

Dictionary indexing (DI) for Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) has conventionally traded computational speed for superior robustness to pattern noise when compared to traditional Hough indexing ...

Year-end season is normally all about positivity—publications pick their favorite albums and songs from the previous 12 months, and then we all argue over placements and omissions. “Where’s __?” is an ...

Quantum computing has crossed a line that classical machines cannot easily follow, pushing simulations of matter and forces into regimes that even the largest supercomputers struggle to touch. Instead ...

If VRAM is the brake pedal on local LLMs, quantization is how we ease the pressure. At its core, it’s simple: store numbers with fewer bits. But in practice, modern methods like GPTQ, AWQ, and GGUF ...

This article is a drama-style story where a new engineer, Sota Asakura, learns the basics of computer science while asking questions to his team leader, Rei Ichinose. Leader of the web application ...

In its traditional definition, an algorithm means a set of instructions that have been prepared beforehand to solve a particular problem. Algorithms could be an optimum simple procedure or a complex ...

For thousands of years, mathematicians have adapted to the latest advances in logic and reasoning. Are they ready for artificial intelligence? By Siobhan Roberts In the collection of the Getty museum ...

The propositional satisfiability problem (SAT) was the first to be shown NP-complete by Cook and Levin. SAT remained the embodiment of theoretical worst-case hardness. However, in stark contrast to ...
