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

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.

Dynamic programming algorithms are a good place to start understanding what's really going on inside computational biology software. The heart of many well-known programs is a dynamic programming ...

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 ...

Daniel R. Jiang, Warren B. Powell, An Approximate Dynamic Programming Algorithm for Monotone Value Functions, Operations Research, Vol. 63, No. 6 (November-December 2015), pp. 1489-1511 ...

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.

This paper presents a constraint logic programming model for the traveling salesman problem with time windows which yields an exact branch-and-bound optimization algorithm without any restrictive ...
