The problem is efficiency. Maxwell's equations are completely linear, so nonlinear optics relies entirely on materials with nonlinear response to optical fields. Unfortunately these responses deviate ...

Integer linear programming can help find the answer to a variety of real-world problems. Now researchers have found a much faster way to do it. Inspired by the results of a game-playing neural network ...
