Abstract: A novel and efficient hybrid sorting algorithm, termed the Merge-Block-Insertion sort (MBISort) algorithm, is proposed. MBISort combines the principles of insertion sort, block sort, and ...

As the world races to build artificial superintelligence, one maverick bioengineer is testing how much unprogrammed intelligence may already be lurking in our simplest algorithms to determine whether ...

Children as young as 4 years old are capable of finding efficient solutions to complex problems, such as independently inventing sorting algorithms developed by computer scientists. The scientists ...

There is a new sorting algorithm a deterministic O(m log2/3 n)-time algorithm for single-source shortest paths (SSSP) on directed graphs with real non-negative edge weights in the comparison-addition ...

If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle the easiest pieces first. But this kind of sorting has a cost.

Abstract: Sorting is a fundamental task in computer programming. Many sorting algorithms have been developed. Sorting algorithms are taught in the programming, data structures, and algorithms courses.

sort_a_unstable_ascending() and sort_a_unstable_descending() are the unstable sorting functions that sort elements in either ascending or descending order while discarding original sort order context.

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Computer scientists often deal with abstract problems that are hard to comprehend, but an exciting new algorithm matters to anyone who ...

This paper investigates the task scheduling problem for the Earth observation Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) satellite system. The mission time window generation method is introduced ...
