Inspired by the Japanese art of kirigami, an MIT team has designed a technique that could transform flat panels into medical devices, habitats, and other objects without the use of tools.

Researchers have found a new approach to finding shortest paths, but it's complex Systems Approach Last year a couple of people forwarded to me the same article on a new method of finding shortest ...

X is revamping the algorithm that ranks posts in the "For You" feed. The engineering team said it will post changes to the algorithm on GitHub every four weeks, including explainers on changes. The ...

Shortest path algorithms sit at the heart of modern graph theory and many of the systems that move people, data, and goods around the world. After nearly seventy years of relying on the same classic ...

Abstract: This study informs the design of future multi-agent pathfinding (MAPF) and multi-robot motion planning (MRMP) algorithms by guiding choices based on constraint classification for ...

Initially I thought it is somehow related to #83705 but later I realized that it's not. Introducing "fast" autodriving mode uncovered a bug, where a pathfinding algorithms started forming loops while ...

A few years back, Google made waves when it claimed that some of its hardware had achieved quantum supremacy, performing operations that would be effectively impossible to simulate on a classical ...

Researchers at the University of Kent, UK, introduced LiteRBS (Lightweight and Rapid Bidirectional Search), a novel grid-based pathfinding algorithm designed for efficient and scalable navigation in ...

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 ...

A research team from the Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has developed FastTrack, a new machine learning-based framework dedicated to evaluate ion migration barriers in crystalline ...
