The use of algorithms to filter and present information online is increasingly shaping our everyday experience of the real world, a study argues.

Scientists have different ideas of how to prevent that Traditional computer algorithms tend to show bias in favor of men when they use entrance exam scores to predict a student’s college grades.

Quantum computer succeeds where a classical algorithm fails Quantum computers coupled with traditional machine learning show clear benefits.

Algorithms are the sets of steps necessary to complete computation.

A new “Interview on Computer Science”. Serge Abiteboul and Christine Froidevaux interview Claude Berrou, computer engineer and electronics engineer, and a member of the French Academy of Sciences.

Known today as Karatsuba’s Algorithm, this breakthrough challenged the long-held belief that multiplying two n-digit numbers required n² steps.

The graph isomorphism problem has been labeled as NP, though some have suggested it should be NP complete—it involves trying to create an algorithm able to look at two networks (with nodes and ...

An algorithm used to inform healthcare decisions for millions of people shows significant racial bias in its predictions of the health risks of black patients.

An algorithm proposed two decades ago that demonstrated the benefit of using quantum mechanics to solve certain problems has finally been run on a quantum computer.

A computer does it, and it's a technological success story. That is the case for a new algorithm from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory.
