Every time you "Like" a Facebook post, among other things, you help provide data to an algorithm. But algorithms, like the humans who design them, aren't foolproof — and can reflect bias.

Facebook, Google, Amazon. Their algorithms are everywhere. But do they really control our lives?

How can we know the biases of a piece of software? By reverse engineering it, of course.

A few years ago I used an algorithm to help me write a science fiction story. Adam Hammond, an English professor, and Julian Brooke, a computer scientist, had created a program called SciFiQ, and ...

--MicroAlgo Inc., today announced the successful development of a groundbreaking quantum algorithm technology, specifically a FULL adder operation based on CPU registers in quantum gate computers ...

People store large quantities of data in their electronic devices and transfer some of this data to others, whether for professional or personal reasons. Data compression methods are thus of the ...

Algorithms can lead to unfair outcomes because the data sets they rely upon inevitably contain inaccuracies, biases and omissions.

MicroAlgo Inc. announced the integration of its quantum image LSQb algorithm with quantum encryption technology to create a new system for secure information hiding and transmission. This ...

At issue was an algorithm called Q* (pronounced “Q-star”), which has allegedly been shown to solve certain grade-school-level math problems that it hasn’t seen before.
