It might not be as bright and shiny as some of the other topics that we've seen here, but there's no denying that the work of Julian Shun and his team is going to be applicable to a lot of the ...

Two computer scientists found — in the unlikeliest of places — just the idea they needed to make a big leap in graph theory. This past October, as Jacob Holm and Eva Rotenberg were thumbing through a ...

Computer scientists are abuzz over a fast new algorithm for solving one of the central problems in the field. (January 15, 2017, update: On January 4, Babai retracted ...

A new open-source library by Nvidia could be the secret ingredient to advancing analytics and making graph databases faster. The key: parallel processing on Nvidia GPUs. Nvidia has long ago stopped ...

Like the core algorithm, Google’s Knowledge Graph periodically updates. But little has been known about how, when, and what it means — until now. I believe these updates consist of three things: ...

With the rapid development of mobile networks, location-based services have become deeply embedded in people's daily lives. Although the k-NN search problem has obtained a lot of research results, the ...
