In 2017, Ian Davidson, a professor of computer science at UC Davis, was on sabbatical as a fellow of the Collegium de Lyon in France. The institute brings together intellectuals, philosophers, artists ...

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.

In algorithms, as in life, negativity can be a drag. Consider the problem of finding the shortest path between two points on a graph — a network of nodes connected by links, or edges. Often, these ...

Date: June 30, 2024 Source: ETH Zurich Summary: Computer scientists have written a network flow algorithm that computes almost as fast as is mathematically possible.

Many aspects of modern applied research rely on a crucial algorithm called gradient descent. This is a procedure generally used for finding the largest or smallest values of a particular mathematical ...

Narrative Science's algorithms built the article using pitch-by-pitch game data that parents entered into an iPhone app called GameChanger. Last year the software produced nearly 400,000 accounts ...

A 20-year-old algorithm that demonstrated the benefit of using quantum mechanics to solve certain problems has finally been run on a quantum computer. Simon’s algorithm, proposed by computer ...

The trained algorithm could distinguish cases where transformations were time-reversal symmetric, something that appears to be very difficult or impossible with the classical system.
