The existing C++ algorithm for sorting a list of five items took around 6.91 nanoseconds on a typical Intel Skylake chip. AlphaDev’s took 2.01 nanoseconds, around 70% faster. ...

In 2018, Google DeepMind's AlphaZero program taught itself the games of chess, shogi, and Go using machine learning and a special algorithm to determine the best moves to win a game within a ...

On March 24, weeks before he offered to buy Twitter, Elon Musk posted a poll on the social media platform: “Twitter algorithm should be open source,” he wrote, with options for users to vote ...

Among those enhancements are new C++ templates and runtime support for expressing algorithms for domain expertise. "With C++ AMP and PPL, we aim to make the next version of Visual Studio the most ...

Similar algorithms are now used in 28 states (and parts of seven more). In Virginia, they were adopted statewide in 2002 to help keep prison populations down after discretionary parole was abolished.

Sophisticated algorithms implemented in hardware make it possible to encode, compress and encrypt data to facilitate both the communication and storage of such data at much higher levels of ...

An artificial intelligence (AI) system based on Google DeepMind’s AlphaZero AI created algorithms that, when translated into the standard programming language C++, can sort data up to three ...

Using a design flow put together by Mentor Graphics and Altera, designers can implement complex DSP algorithms in high-performance FPGAs directly from ANSI C++ code. The flow, which is based on ...

Called SmartHLS, the tool allows C++ algorithms to be directly translated to FPGA-optimised RTL (register transfer level) code. It is based on the open-source Eclipse integrated development ...
