Hostile foreign powers and even tech companies are not attacking us with bullets and bombs; they’re doing it with bits and bytes. It’s Cyber Security Awareness Month, so what to do about the third world war being waged in cyberspace?
Turning zero from a punctuation mark into a number paved the way for everything from algebra to algorithms.
We prefer to go with our guts.
Computers today are fast and powerful but they still can’t think like a human when it comes to some tasks we find easy. That’s why tech companies are turning to neuroscience for help.
Political and community leaders must act now to preserve the American middle class and adapt the US economy for the 21st century.
Expressing music into mathematical formulae can help us understand why some pieces and performances can send shivers down your spine.
Interview with the scientist Claude Berrou, inventor of the turbocodes that protect the data of the connected objects. Today, he is exploring the neurosciences.
Today algorithms are ubiquitous, yet often misunderstood. Rather than mysterious entities, they’re closer to recipes, and the quality of the output depends on the input – in their case, data.
Methods stemming from decades of research on disordered materials are used to describe algorithmic phase transitions, and to design new algorithms in machine-learning problems.
The Supreme Court may soon hear a case on data-driven criminal sentencing. Research suggests that algorithms are not as good as we think they are at making these decisions.
Advertisers want to know how you feel online through a process known as sentiment analysis, but it still has its limitations.
A man was recently sent to prison for six years at least in part by the recommendation of a private company’s secret proprietary software.
Crime data reflect only what crimes are identified by the police – not all the crimes that occur. So decisions based on crime data are necessarily biased and incompletely informed.
The Productivity Commission’s report on data availability and use is disappointing for consumers, who won’t be able to stop firms collecting their data or challenge automated decisions made using it.
Facebook wants to stop violent videos appearing in its feeds, but we must ensure human moderators don’t suffer.
Relying less on fossil fuels is one of the key challenges of energy transition, and taking weather variations into account can help increase the overall efficiency of a renewable-energy system.
Algorithms can have enormous consequences on people’s lives, yet a federal law prevents us from studying whether they may be biased, unfair or discriminatory.
A European Union law will require human-understandable explanations for algorithms’ decisions. A team of researchers has found a way to provide that, even for complex calculations.
Data is becoming more and more important to the online advertising game. Soon, the ability to use data and algorithms will be a basic requirement in online advertising.
