When scientists test algorithms that sort or classify data, they often turn to a trusted tool called Normalized Mutual ...

Scientists say they’ve developed a framework to make computer algorithms “safer” to use without creating bias based on race, gender or other factors. The trick, they say, is to make it possible for ...

In a study published in Frontiers in Science, scientists from Purdue University and the Georgia Institute of Technology ...

Algorithms are the backbone of everyday life. From social media feeds and streaming services to advertising and the business world, these computer instructions have become more sophisticated at ...

Algorithms are all around us, using massive stores of data and complex analytics to make decisions with often significant impacts on humans – from choosing the content people see on social media to ...

Watt’s online MSc Computer Science blends academic expertise with practical, real-world teaching, including algorithm demos ...

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 ...

Barbara Liskov pioneered the modern approach to writing code. She warns that the challenges facing computer science today can’t be overcome with good design alone. Good code has both substance and ...
