Computer scientist Peter Gutmann tells The Reg why it's 'bollocks' The US National Institute for Standards and Technology ...

So, an algorithm is the process a computer uses to transform input data into output data. A simple concept, and yet every piece of technology that you touch involves many algorithms.

Pedro Domingos, computer science professor at the University of Washington, offers an overview of the current state of machine learning in his just-published book, “The Master Algorithm: How the ...

Mathematicians have long sought to develop algorithms that can compare any two graphs. In practice, many ...

Op-ed: a computer scientist weighs in on the downsides of AI. This is what's important: machine-learning systems—"algorithms"—produce outputs that reflect the training data over time.

Back in 1996, a computer scientist called Lov Grover at Bell Labs in New Jersey unveiled an unusual algorithm for searching through a database. Searching algorithms are among the most important in ...

Computer scientists have written a network flow algorithm that computes almost as fast as is mathematically possible. This algorithm computes the maximum traffic flow with minimum transport costs ...
