For 41 years, to find shortest paths in a graph, the Dijkstra’s algorithm, was seen as the best possible way. Not any longer:

Now a team from Tsinghua University has beaten it.

They created the first faster algorithm for directed shortest paths since 1984.

• Faster than Dijkstra on large sparse graphs
• Works with real, non-negative edge weights
• Proves that sorting is not the main bottleneck anymore

Shortest-path algorithms power maps, GPS, logistics, networking, and robotics.

This result shows that even the most “finished” algorithms can still be improved.

Thanks for sharing, @0x0SojalSec!

Our review "Contagion dynamics on higher-order networks" is out in @NatRevPhys (https://t.co/s3CjIONYia). We review the literature on the topic and take the opportunity to propose a unified formalism covering most of the functional forms used for the spreading dynamics (1/2).

With another semester ending, here's your annual reminder that teaching evaluations systemically disadvantage women. Even when controlling for grades and other factors, students (esp. males) consistently give female professors lower scores. This can have serious ramifications.🧵

Incredible thread here. Apparently when one does a Monte Carlo simulation of the Alice/Bob coin flip problem with lots of flips (like ~10,000,000), the answer is sensitive to the pseudorandom number generator used.
