In 2022, global production of construction materials accounted for more than 7% of total carbon emissions. But how many of ...

Abstract: Solving combinatorial optimization problems on current noisy quantum devices is currently being advocated for (and restricted to) binary polynomial optimization with equality constraints via ...

In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry that had stumped human mathematicians for the last 80 ...

Abstract: Accurately solving discrete optimization problems is still a serious challenge for classical computing systems. Despite significant progress, it is still impossible to optimally solve ...

UCP expands commerce beyond checkout into discovery, loyalty, and post-purchase support, redefining how brands compete for AI-mediated selection. In January, I wrote about the birth of agentic ...

Ryan Eichler holds a B.S.B.A with a concentration in Finance from Boston University. He has held positions in, and has deep experience with, expense auditing, personal finance, real estate, as well as ...

The query optimizer is a crucial component in a relational database system and is responsible for finding a good execution plan for a SQL query. For cloud database service providers, the importance of ...

Neel Somani points out that while artificial intelligence may look like it runs on data and algorithms, its real engine is optimization. According to Somani, every breakthrough in the field—from ...

NP-hardness results indicate that finding exact optima and even sufficiently good approximate optima for worst-case instances of many optimization problems is probably out of reach for polynomial-time ...

This repository provides simple examples of how to construct a configuration space using the ConfigSpace package, how to use BOHB with minimal efforts and how to run CAVE to generate a comprehensive ...

This repository provides the Java (jMetal 4.5), C, Matlab/Octave, and Python implementations of the (at least not synthetic) real-world (RE) problems presented in the following paper: Ryoji Tanabe and ...
