Algorithms are turning up in the most unlikely places, promising to assert mathematical probability into corners of our lives where intuition, instinct and hunches have long held sway.

This course continues our data structures and algorithms specialization by focussing on the use of linear and integer programming formulations for solving algorithmic problems that seek optimal ...

The basic algorithm used to make a matching between applicants and programs is fairly straightforward. An applicant — Alice — starts by applying to her first-choice program.

The massive machine learning (ML) infrastructure needed to develop these algorithms is readily available in the open-source world or via APIs in the cloud. This means if you’re a brand looking ...

Static program analysis is a cornerstone in verifying, optimising, and debugging modern software systems. By evaluating code without executing it, these techniques enable early detection of ...

The World Bank funds a poverty relief program in Jordan that uses an algorithm that stiffs the poorest people, Human Rights Watch found.

We made our own version of the Codebreaker sign-cracking algorithm — and talked to pitchers about how to thwart it.

Dandelion has developed this program under a patient privacy-first, open access model, to make it accessible to as many algorithm developers as possible at no cost.

When Arkansas started using an algorithm for a crucial health service, the program’s recipients struggled to understand what happened.
