This algorithm computes the maximum traffic flow with minimum transport costs for any type of network. It thus solves a key question in theoretical computer science. The superfast algorithm also ...

One computer scientist’s “stunning” proof is the first progress in 50 years on one of the most famous questions in computer ...

Even computer algorithms can be biased. 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 ...

One might imagine a past leader in computer science such as Donald Knuth exclaiming, “Algorithms should be deterministic.” That is, given any input, the output should be exact and known.

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.

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 ...

At the time, computer scientists expected that someone would soon improve on Christofides’ simple algorithm and come closer to the true solution. But the anticipated progress did not arrive.

After an international group of scientists revealed the first photos of a black hole on Wednesday, the internet quickly turned its attention to the 29-year-old computer scientist who played a key ...

Degree Requirements. Students enrolled in the Professional MS in Computer Science (MSCPS) program with the Algorithms, Network and Optimization (ANO) subplan must complete 30 credit hours of graduate ...

A study published Thursday in Science has found that a health care risk-prediction algorithm, a major example of tools used on more than 200 million people in the U.S., demonstrated racial bias ...
