Matrix multiplication is at the heart of many machine learning breakthroughs, and it just got faster—twice. Last week, DeepMind announced it discovered a more efficient way to perform matrix ...

Ralph and side-kick Matrix have more questions to consolidate mental maths skills. The focus of this quiz is multiplication. Before taking part in the quiz make sure you have a pencil or pen and a ...

Computer scientists have discovered a new way to multiply large matrices faster than ever before by eliminating a previously unknown inefficiency, reports Quanta Magazine. This could eventually ...

This paper develops an algorithm to multiply a p × 2 matrix by a 2 × n matrix in $\lceil(3pn + \max (n, p))/2\rceil$ multiplications without use of commutativity of matrix elements. The algorithm ...

The inspiration for this column comes not from the epic 1999 film The Matrix, as the title may suggest, but from an episode of Sean Carroll’s Mindscape podcast that I listened to over the summer. The ...

Photonic innovation: researchers in the US have created an optical metamaterial that can perform vector–matrix multiplication. (Courtesy: iStock/Henrik5000) A new silicon photonics platform that can ...
