Algorithms allow us to make rational decisions in an organized manner, preventing us from burdening our minds with low-quality, on-the fly decision making. Everybody can do with a bit of computer ...

What do encrypted messages, recognizing speech commands and running simulations to predict the weather have in common? They all rely on matrix multiplication for accurate calculations. DeepMind, an ...

The public sector is increasingly allowing algorithms to make vital decisions that affect people’s lives – but how do we know those algorithms work or what they do?

Computer algorithms infer gender, race and ethnicity. Here’s how to avoid their pitfalls Demographic-prediction algorithms have various challenges, following best practices can minimize the harms.

Every problem in P is also in PSPACE, because fast algorithms just don’t have enough time to fill up much space in a computer’s memory.

People have performed many mathematical proofs to show that a quantum computer will vastly outperform traditional computers on a number of algorithms. But the quantum computers we have now are ...

A novel computer-based algorithm can track the progress of hair loss in patients with various types of alopecia, according to a study. “Hair loss impacts so many people,” Elena Bernardis, PhD ...

Assistance From An Algorithm The listings for Berger were selected from the state job bank by a computer running a complex mathematical formula, or algorithm.
