These algorithms are significant because they can solve the noncommutative weighted Edmonds' problem in polynomial time, demonstrating that certain complex problems can be tackled efficiently [2].

Complexity theorists sort problems into categories, called complexity classes, based on the resource demands of the best algorithms for solving them—that is, the algorithms that run fastest or ...

The other form of black box algorithm is one in which the information is publicly available but too complex to be readily understood. This, again, can have dire implications.

The Grover search algorithm is an efficient quantum search algorithm that can find a target element in an unstructured database with a time complexity of the square root of the number of elements.

The library sorting problem is used across computer science for organizing far more than just books. A new solution is less than a page-width away from the theoretical ideal.

Deliveroo has revealed that a new algorithm it calls ‘Frank’ has cut delivery times by 20pc for its restaurants and riders.
