It’s been difficult to find important questions that quantum computers can answer faster than classical machines, but a new algorithm appears to do so for some critical optimization tasks.

The new quantum algorithm would, in particular, greatly speed up semidefinite programs that are used to learn unknown quantum states. Brandão says that this type of "quantum learning" problem is ...

Matching algorithms to application characteristics Within any application category or set of characteristics there are many optimization algorithms that are equivalently effective. Criteria for ...

At times, we’ll talk about Google search algorithms, technical SEO for your website, on-page optimization of your webpages, etc.
