Researchers reportedly speed up the simplex optimization method
Quanta Magazine reports that Sophie Huiberts and Eleon Bach reduced the algorithm’s runtime. The method turns optimization tasks, such as setting up an investment portfolio, into geometry problems.

Quanta Magazine reports that Sophie Huiberts and Eleon Bach reduced the runtime of the simplex method, an algorithm that turns optimization problems into geometry problems. The magazine describes it as widely used for balancing complex logistical constraints and says the leading approach to the method “can’t get any better.”
The simplex method is an algorithm that turns an optimization problem, like setting up an investment portfolio, into a geometry problem. Lady year, scientists Sophie Huiberts (left) and Eleon Bach reduced the runtime of the simplex method.
