Researchers at Google have used their Willow quantum computer to demonstrate that "quantum contextuality" may be a crucial ...

Despite the hype and hoopla surrounding the burgeoning field of quantum computing, the technology is still in its infancy. Just a few years ago, researchers were making headlines with rudimentary ...

Space-filling designs such as Latin hypercube designs (LHDs) are widely used in computer experiments. However, finding an optimal LHD with good space-filling properties is computationally cumbersome.

An updated version of Psystar's Open Computer doesn't seem to be as loud as the first ones that left the assembly line. Tom Krazit writes about the ever-expanding world of Google, as the most ...

We revisit the problem of determining the sample size for a Gaussian process emulator and provide a data analytic tool for exact sample size calculations that goes beyond the n = 10d rule of thumb and ...

While movies often show AI agents as sentient super computers that can perform various tasks, real-world AI agents differ greatly from this portrayal. “What we mean when we say AI is that we come up ...

When SpaceX's rocket takes off on August 14th, it will be carrying a machine that could make things a lot easier for future astronauts embarking on deep space missions. That machine is the Spaceborne ...
