We've seen AI algorithms create mostly-believable pictures of people's headshots, works of art, news articles, and even pokémon. But now a team of scientists is taking things a step further, with an ...

We present a genetic algorithm for the multiple-choice integer program that finds an optimal solution with probability one (though it is typically used as a heuristic). General constraints are relaxed ...

In this paper, the set covering problem (SCP) is considered. Several algorithms have been suggested in the literature for solving it. We propose a new algorithm for solving the SCP which is based on ...

The person behind this is Mark Temple, a microbiologist in Sydney, Australia. MARK TEMPLE: I'm both a musician and a scientist. So I thought, I'm well-placed here to actually approach this from a ...

For centuries, scientists have sought a biological method for tracing a person's geographic origin. Now, a group of researchers has developed such a genetic ancestry test that can pinpoint the ...

A Stanford-led study published in Nature on Feb. 26 found that age-related changes witnessed in diseases like Alzheimer’s may be related to a relatively untapped area of research in the brain. The ...
