Think about placing dots on a flat surface. You want as many pairs as possible to be separated by the same distance. For any amount of dots, what is the greatest possible number of pairs that can be ...

Companies are shifting from running everything on the most powerful AI model to matching each task to the right one, a practice called model routing. The pressure for efficiency comes as large ...

Abstract: Industry 5.0 promotes the transformation of manufacturing toward flexibility, personalization, and sustainability. As a critical component of closed-loop manufacturing systems, disassembly ...

Despite having tiny brains, bumblebees have demonstrated a remarkable ability to socially learn how to use tools, solve simple puzzles, and cooperate to achieve a goal. It seems they can also solve ...

In a new study, bumble bees solve a completely novel object-manipulation task. What makes this behavior especially remarkable is that the bees had never been trained. The findings challenge the ...

German psychologist Wolfgang Köhler set up a famous experiment more than 100 years ago that changed how scientists understand animal intelligence and the power of insight — or spontaneous ...

In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry that had stumped human mathematicians for the last 80 ...

Abstract: This paper explores a novel model for sorted-waste transportation, defined as the two-echelon collaborative location routing problem with intuitionistic fuzzy multi-demands. It considers a ...

I cut my teeth getting grounded in principles of design thinking when I launched a strategic design MBA during my university teaching years. Design thinking is essentially a problem-solving process ...

Last week, OpenAI shocked the mathematical community by revealing that one of its internal artificial intelligence (AI) models had found a counterexample to a famous conjecture made by legendary ...

Research published in the International Journal of Collaborative Engineering has found that universities that bring together environmental engineering and landscape architecture students in joint ...

AI thrives on data but feeding it the right data is harder than it seems. As enterprises scale their AI initiatives, they face the challenge of managing diverse data pipelines, ensuring proximity to ...
