The list includes ancient examples as well as some of the most groundbreaking computer science algorithms and programming algorithms in history.

Most of the successful applications of AI in science so far — including the protein-designing tool AlphaFold — have involved a learning algorithm that was hand-crafted for its task, says Krenn.

The film discusses a programming concept involving inputs and outputs, specifically focusing on ensuring accuracy in calculations related to the circumference of a square. The speaker emphasizes ...

The library sorting problem is used across computer science for organizing far more than just books. A new solution is less than a page-width away from the theoretical ideal. Computer scientists often ...

But a new proof shows that for the quintessential path-finding problem, one algorithm is close to ideal: Assuming worst-case traffic patterns, it’s the best approach on every possible street grid.

Researchers have devised an "absurdly fast" algorithm to solve the problem of finding the fastest flow through a network.

Popular science magazine Quanta named it one of the ten biggest discoveries in computer science in 2022. Initially, Kyng’s algorithm focused on static networks with fixed connections.

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 ...

Because people train algorithms on their decisions – for example, algorithms that make recommendations on e-commerce and social media sites – algorithms learn and codify human biases.

But he is worried that a culture in computer science to focus more on the end, rather than means, means intellectual property rights are often disregarded.

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, ...
