Eugene Salamin is a mathematician who discovered (independently with Richard Brent) the Salamin–Brent algorithm, used in high-precision calculation of pi.
Eugene Salamin worked on alternatives to increase accuracy and minimize computational processes through the use of quaternions. Benefits may include:
- the design of spatio-temporal databases;
- numerical mathematical methods that traditionally prove unsuccessful due to buildup of computational error;
- therefore, may be applied to applications involving genetic algorithms and evolutionary computation, in general.
