It has demonstrated the powerful ability of a quantum computer to perform certain computational tasks more efficiently than a classical computer. Thus, to show quantum advantages is a key problem in ...

Seeking to reduce the computing power needed for the widely used dynamic mode decomposition algorithm, a team of researchers in China led by Guo-Ping Guo developed a quantum-classical hybrid algorithm ...

The Difference of Convex functions Algorithm (DCA) is used to solve nonconvex optimization problems over a certain convex set, specifically quadratic programming ones, generally by finding approximate ...

This communication presents experimental research findings on the application of the flower pollination algorithm (FPA) and the African buffalo optimization (ABO) to implement the complex and fairly ...

BARCELONA, Spain—A deep-learning algorithm designed to identify local cardiac structures and estimate cardiac function does a better job than sonographer estimates at consistently measuring left ...

Humans are good at looking at images and finding patterns or making comparisons. Look at a collection of dog photos, for example, and you can sort them by color, by ear size, by face shape, and so on.
