Studies show that AI systems used to make important decisions such as approval of loan and mortgage applications can perpetuate historical bias and discrimination if not carefully constructed and ...

Recent advances in photonic technology are redefining decision-making processes by integrating quantum dots with bandit problem algorithms. Quantum dots – nanoscale semiconductor particles – ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) and algorithmic decision-making systems — algorithms that analyze massive amounts of data and make predictions about the future — are increasingly affecting Americans’ ...

Can we ever really trust algorithms to make decisions for us? Previous research has proved these programs can reinforce society’s harmful biases, but the problems go beyond that. A new study shows how ...

Researchers uncover a single rule for how animals make spatial decisions while on the move. An international team led by researchers from the University of Konstanz and Max Planck Institute of Animal ...

I was halfway through a master’s in Computer Science when my vision changed. I was working as a data scientist during my summer off from school, and I had friends who said things like “I’m at a local ...

At the global HIMSS 1 Conference, Roche showcases navify Algorithm Suite, a single platform offering clinicians access to medical algorithms generating insights to help improve care decisions. navify ...

More experience in a given situation tends to make us feel we are getting better at making decisions. As we gain expertise, our judgments get quicker, too. But quick doesn’t always mean accurate. So, ...

"Weakly enforced" data protection laws have resulted in "woefully inadequate levels of transparency" around the use of algorithmic surveillance and decision-making systems in the gig economy, ...

Deciding what to do in situations when there is no right answer is an unenviable challenge for any leader. Doing it in a matter of seconds under the pressure of a rapidly changing scenario — like a ...
