Computer chips designed like biological brains can finally handle massive math problems without guzzling energy like a normal supercomputer
Yet, to perform that motion, your brain is solving a massive physics problem in milliseconds. It is processing the same kind of complex math that typically demands a warehouse-sized supercomputer.
Scientists say using math to sort through DNA could help investigators put stubborn cold cases to rest. The approach combines the relatively new field of forensic genetic genealogy—solving crime by ...
