"We can't plan the day's schedule without that person." I hear this in many workplaces. In delivery and courier services, each driver has their own way of getting around, relying on the intuition of ...

In this work, we address a question that has attracted intense interest in recent years: whether machine learning-assisted algorithms can genuinely outperform classical approaches in challenging ...

Microsoft Research has released OptiMind, an AI based system that converts natural language descriptions of complex decision problems into mathematical formulations that optimization solvers can ...

Abstract: This study examined how the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm could be used to improve urban route planning, using a simulation based on the classic Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP).

Phi-4-reasoning is a 14-billion parameter model specialized in complex reasoning tasks. It is trained using supervised finetuning (SFT) on diverse prompts and reasoning demonstrations from o3-mini.

To say that I was raised by 1980s TV is unfair to my wonderful parents, but I certainly spent as much time with the Keatons, the Huxtables, the Seavers, the 4077th, and the Cheers gang as I did around ...

We introduce a method for solving a quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) with the two-way one-hot constraints by dividing the QUBO into parts and solving it with an Ising machine. The ...
