Every organism you have ever seen, every ecosystem you have ever walked through, is the ongoing output of an algorithm that ...

Optimization algorithms form the backbone of modern biological data analysis, addressing challenges posed by high-dimensional, noisy and often non-linear datasets. From selecting informative ...

Genetic algorithms (GAs) are a class of population-based metaheuristic search methods inspired by principles of natural selection and evolution. They solve complex optimisation problems by encoding ...

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 ...

Researchers have developed a new algorithm for recovering the 3D refractive index distribution of biological samples that exhibit multiple types of light scattering. Researchers have developed a new ...

Epigenetic aging clocks use DNA methylation patterns to measure biological age and predict health risks across human tissues.

Researchers from Spain’s Valencia Polytechnic University have developed a novel method for forecasting the power generation of PV systems. Its novelty lies in developing a hyperparameter optimization ...

A newly described type of chemistry in fungi is both surprisingly common and likely to involve highly reactive enzymes, two traits that make the genes involved useful signposts pointing to a potential ...

Genes make us who we are—but are they shaped by chance, natural selection, or something else?
