Children as young as 4 years old are capable of finding efficient solutions to complex problems, such as independently inventing sorting algorithms developed by computer scientists. The scientists ...

There is a new sorting algorithm a deterministic O(m log2/3 n)-time algorithm for single-source shortest paths (SSSP) on directed graphs with real non-negative edge weights in the comparison-addition ...

GPU-based sorting algorithms have emerged as a crucial area of research due to their ability to harness the immense parallel processing power inherent in modern graphics processing units. By ...

Abstract: Sorting algorithms are fundamental to computational efficiency, with traditional methods like Quick Sort, Merge Sort, and Heap Sort being widely used despite their complexity and performance ...

In this manuscript, the authors describe a software package for automatic differentiation of action potentials generated by excitatory and inhibitory neurons, acquired using high-density ...

Abstract: To address the challenge of ensuring a submarine can smoothly pass through a strait and complete its mission, this article proposes using a magnetic decoy array to simulate the submarine’s ...
