Mathematicians love a good puzzle. Even something as abstract as multiplying matrices (two-dimensional tables of numbers) can feel like a game when you try to find the most efficient way to do it.

A recent paper set the fastest record for multiplying two matrices. But it also marks the end of the line for a method researchers have relied on for decades to make improvements. For computer ...

Multiplying the content of two x-y matrices together for screen rendering and AI processing. Matrix multiplication provides a series of fast multiply and add operations in parallel, and it is built ...

Nearly all big science, machine learning, neural network, and machine vision applications employ algorithms that involve large matrix-matrix multiplication. But multiplying large matrices pushes the ...

There has been an ever-growing demand for artificial intelligence and fifth-generation communications globally, resulting in very large computing power and memory requirements. The slowing down or ...

Researchers claim to have developed a new way to run AI language models more efficiently by eliminating matrix multiplication from the process. This fundamentally redesigns neural network operations ...

Photonic innovation: researchers in the US have created an optical metamaterial that can perform vector–matrix multiplication. (Courtesy: iStock/Henrik5000) A new silicon photonics platform that can ...

Sparse matrix computations are prevalent in many scientific and technical applications. In many simulation applications, the solving of the sparse matrix-vector multiplication (SpMV) is critical for ...
