Only recently, progress has been made in obtaining o(log (rank))-competitive algorithms for the matroid secretary problem. More precisely, Chakraborty and Lachish ...

We leverage insights from machine learning to optimize the tradeoff between bias and variance when estimating economic models using pooled datasets. Specifically, we develop a simple algorithm that ...

Computer scientists have invented a highly effective, yet incredibly simple, algorithm to decide which items to toss from a web cache to make room for new ones. Computer scientists have invented a ...

Faster medical breakthroughs? More efficient and personalized healthcare? Better, sturdier manufacturing materials? All of ...

If you want to print something a few inches tall, extruded plastic is a good medium. But when you need something at the nanometer scale, DNA is a better bet — but who has the time to design and ...

In this paper we have introduced a heuristic algorithm which automatically maps a given set of intellectual property onto a generic regular network-on-chip (NoC) architecture and constructs a ...

Elon Musk calls it “the algorithm,” a distillation of lessons learned while relentlessly increasing production capacity at Tesla’s Nevada and Fremont factories. According to Walter Isaacson in his new ...
