Children as young as 4 years old are capable of finding efficient solutions to complex problems, such as independently inventing sorting algorithms developed by computer scientists. The scientists ...

There is a new sorting algorithm a deterministic O(m log2/3 n)-time algorithm for single-source shortest paths (SSSP) on directed graphs with real non-negative edge weights in the comparison-addition ...

Add a description, image, and links to the linear-sorting topic page so that developers can more easily learn about it.

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 ...

The old Babylonian algorithm, a remarkable mathematical artifact from ancient Mesopotamia (around 1800–1600 BC), has long been a subject of fascination to scholars. This ancient algorithm not only ...

This week I interviewed Senator Amy Klobuchar, Democrat of Minnesota, about her Preventing Algorithmic Collusion Act. If you don’t know what algorithmic collusion is, it’s time to get educated, ...

Prior to PILOT, fitting linear model trees was slow and prone to overfitting, especially with large datasets. Traditional regression trees struggled to capture linear relationships effectively. Linear ...
