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

"This borders on an indictment of Facebook's algorithm," said Laura Edelson, a computer scientist and postdoctoral ... saw in their Facebook feeds. For example, compared with a chronological ...

We frequently don’t know how a particular artificial intelligence or algorithm was ... in a very simplified example, let’s say you wanted to train your computer system to recognize whether ...

A new algorithm ... beyond computer science, such as allowing chemists to determine whether complex molecules have the same bonding structure. Despite the differing shapes, these two graphs ...

Scientists say they’ve developed a framework to make computer algorithms “safer ... they often provide biased results. For example, an algorithm used to determine prison sentences predicted ...

While some AI techniques (such as expert systems) use other approaches, machine learning drives most of the field’s current progress by focusing on one thing: using algorithms ... for example, are ...

For example ... evaluation using an algorithm would save an enormous amount of time and improve the results," explains Professor Rainer Stiefelhagen, Head of the Computer Vision for Human-Computer ...

Outside academia, these algorithms are widely used ... the availability of tools for some variables (for example, gender and race) and not others, shapes what research questions we imagine we ...
