Algorithms are one of the four cornerstones of Computer Science. An algorithm is a plan, a set of step-by-step instructions to solve a problem. If you can tie shoelaces, make a cup of tea, get ...

For decades, computer scientists working on negative-weight graphs tried to match the speed of Dijkstra’s algorithm with similar “combinatorial” algorithms. These involve discrete operations — like ...

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

Computer Scientists Find a Key Research Algorithm's Limits The most widely used technique for optimizing values of a math function turns out to be a fundamentally difficult computational problem.

Researchers have devised a new framework for designing machine learning algorithms that helps prevent intelligent machines from being biased.

Professor Ian Davidson's research in the Department of Computer Science focuses on making artificial intelligence systems 'fair' and trustworthy. (Graphic by Bangon Pitipong via Getty Images) In 2017, ...

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.
