In this video, we delve into the fascinating world of big number multiplication and explore how computers perform this task ...

Of course, these days your multiplication probably occurs in hardware but it still may not be as fast as addition and subtraction.

Through learning, AlphaTensor gradually improves over time, re-discovering historical fast matrix multiplication algorithms such as Strassen’s, eventually surpassing the realm of human intuition and ...

Bewick's 1994 PhD thesis Fast Multiplication: Algorithms and Implementation describes numerous algorithms. For adders, Two-Operand Addition is an interesting presentation on different approaches.

High-performance matrix multiplication remains a cornerstone of numerical computing, underpinning a wide array of applications from scientific simulations to machine learning. Researchers ...

AI engineers develop an algorithm that will replace floating-point multiplication with integer addition to make AI processing more efficient.

Even for computers, the long multiplication algorithm, defined as n to the power of, could reportedly take months if each number had a billion digits.

See all Abstractions blog Even more important, the multiplication algorithm is part of a class of nearly ubiquitous algorithms in computer science. Gidney expects that his new technique will allow ...

DeepMind breaks 50-year math record using AI; new record falls a week later AlphaTensor discovers better algorithms for matrix math, inspiring another improvement from afar.
