People tend to obsess over making computer software faster. You can, of course, just crank up the clock speed and add more processors, but often the most powerful way to make something faster is to ...
With AlphaTensor, DeepMind Technologies has presented an AI system that is supposed to independently find novel, efficient and provably correct algorithms for complex mathematical tasks. AlphaTensor ...
Abstract: Multi-scalar multiplication (MSM) is the primary computational bottleneck in zero-knowledge proof protocols. To address this, we introduce FAMA, an FPGA-oriented MSM accelerator developed ...
