Blending ‘old-fashioned’ logic systems with the neural networks that power large language models is one of the hottest trends ...

All of modern mathematics is built on the foundation of set theory, the study of how to organize abstract collections of objects. But in general, research mathematicians don’t need to think about it ...

Plans to build a "supercomputer" science park on a green belt land have been unveiled at a public exhibition. Exeter College, Oxford, is planning research and innovation district EXOq on the outskirts ...

The government will attempt to reverse the declining numbers of young people studying computing at school through a broader programme of study of the subject that retains its core principles. This ...

The security community is working toward cryptographic encryption that can withstand post-quantum threats as quantum’s ability to break existing algorithms looms. Here are the latest developments. The ...

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) -IBM said on Friday it can run a key quantum computing error correction algorithm on commonly available chips from Advanced Micro Devices, a ...

Alphabet Inc.’s Google ran an algorithm on its “Willow” quantum-computing chip that can be repeated on similar platforms and outperform classical supercomputers, a breakthrough it said clears a path ...

Designed to accelerate advances in medicine and other fields, the tech giant’s quantum algorithm runs 13,000 times as fast as software written for a traditional supercomputer. A quantum computer at ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...

Children often surprise us with their natural problem-solving skills. A new study shows that they can discover efficient algorithms on their own. Researchers Huiwen Alex Yang, Bill D. Thompson, and ...

For all the hype surrounding quantum computers, the technology can sometimes appear to be a solution in search of a problem. Scientifically impressive, but not yet obviously useful in the real world.

A key study claiming to provide evidence of Majorana quasiparticles has received an extensive correction five years after it was published in the journal Science. Two researchers who flagged the paper ...
