A new study by Shanghai Jiao Tong University and SII Generative AI Research Lab (GAIR) shows that training large language models (LLMs) for complex, autonomous tasks does not require massive datasets.

Abstract: In this work, we extend the simplex algorithm of linear programming for finding a local minimum of a concave quadratic function subject to box constraints. In order to test the performance ...

Standard computer implementations of Dantzig's simplex method for linear programming are based upon forming the inverse of the basic matrix and updating the inverse ...

ABSTRACT: The outbreak of COVID-19 in 2019 resulted in numerous infections and deaths. In order to better study the transmission of COVID-19, this article adopts an improved fractional-order SIR model ...

What is the NOVA method of food classification? Food processing ensures safety and shelf life by transforming raw components into new products. In the last several decades, this has changed in ...

This repository contains a C++ implementation of both the Quine-McCluskey method and Petrick's method for minimizing Boolean functions. The project systematically reduces Boolean expressions into ...
