Over the past decade, fuzzers have become the most widely used tools to test software security and robustness. Generating ...
All around us, algorithms are invisibly at work. They’re recommending music and surfacing news, finding cancerous tumors, and making self-driving cars a reality. But do people trust them? Not ...
AI has a well-documented but poorly understood transparency problem. 51% of business executives report that AI transparency and ethics are important for their business, and not surprisingly, 41% ...
A new algorithm opens the door for using artificial intelligence and machine learning to study the interactions that happen ...
These “sniffing algorithms”—used, for example, by a sell-side market maker—have the built-in intelligence to identify the existence of any algorithms on the buy side of a large order.
I love both of these examples, because I love the idea that we can take our own democratic action to make the world a bit less complicated. Alas, it is not that simple.
For example, algorithms used in facial recognition technology have in the past shown higher identification rates for men than for women, and for individuals of non-white origin than for whites.
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 ...
Examples of algorithm performance with respect to different manatee densities in the scene. The first row shows original images with increasing manatee density from left to right. The second and ...
