The new algorithm will facilitate the development of advanced brain –computer interfaces that may one day enable paralyzed patients to control devices such as computers and robotic arms.

Instead of waiting for fully mature quantum computers to emerge, researchers have developed hybrid classical/quantum algorithms to extract the most performance -- and potentially quantum advantage ...

Within a few years quantum computers could catch up to or even outperform classical computers thanks to significant work on hardware and the algorithms to run on it. Quantum computers exploit ...

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.

An algorithm used to inform healthcare decisions for millions of people shows significant racial bias in its predictions of the health risks of black patients.

Stanford's vaccine debacle is only one example of the many ways algorithms can be biased, a problem that's becoming more visible as computer programs take the place of human decision makers.
