An artificial intelligence created by the firm DeepMind has discovered a new way to multiply numbers, the first such advance in over 50 years. The find could boost some computation speeds by up to 20 ...
In this video from PASC17, Alfio Lazzaro (University of Zurich, Switzerland) presents: Increasing Efficiency of Sparse Matrix-Matrix Multiplication. “Matrix-matrix multiplication is a basic operation ...
Solving many scientific and technical applications entails the use of matrix multiplies somewhere in the algorithm and thus the computer code. With today’s multicore CPUs, proper use of complier ...
Computer scientists have discovered a new way to multiply large matrices faster by eliminating a previously unknown inefficiency, leading to the largest improvement in matrix multiplication efficiency ...
The matrix multiplication infix operator (*) produces a new matrix by performing matrix multiplication. The first matrix must have the same number of columns as the second matrix has rows. The new ...
What do encrypted messages, recognizing speech commands and running simulations to predict the weather have in common? They all rely on matrix multiplication for accurate calculations. DeepMind, an ...
The inspiration for this column comes not from the epic 1999 film The Matrix, as the title may suggest, but from an episode of Sean Carroll’s Mindscape podcast that I listened to over the summer. The ...
Distributed computing has markedly advanced the efficiency and reliability of complex numerical tasks, particularly matrix multiplication, which is central to numerous computational applications from ...
