Despite the growing presence of algorithms in daily life, the U.S. public expresses broad concerns over the fairness and effectiveness of computer programs making important decisions.

[Kory] is using genetic algorithms to write computer programs, and in the process bringing us one step closer to the Singularity.

This is a collection of C programs for material from TAOCP. The goal is to provide aids to facilitate the understanding of content from TAOCP. To this end, the C code tries to mirror the structure and ...

Earlier this year, Andrew Smith wrote about "Franken-algorithms" for The Guardian, suggesting that software in our lives had become complex and unpredictable and the consequences could be deadly.

An algorithm proposed two decades ago that demonstrated the benefit of using quantum mechanics to solve certain problems has finally been run on a quantum computer.

The volunteers' answers were fed into a computer program and then, after this training period, the computer could predict the volunteers' art preferences much better than would happen by chance.

Program highlights The student-run Software Engineering and Computer Science Student Society (SCS) organizes coding nights, algorithm practice, tutorials, social events, and networking opportunities.

The use of algorithms to create music is not new. Researchers used computer programs to generate piano sheet music as far back as the 1950s, and musicians from that era such as Iannis Xenakis and ...

Algorithms are used by investment banks, hedge funds, and the like; however, some algo-based programs and strategies can be purchased and implemented by retail investors.
