Quantum computers promise enormous computational power, but the nature of quantum states makes computation and data ...

Before computer science, there were equations, formulas and theorems. Computer science allowed sequences of operations, processes, and procedures to be developed to process complex problems.

“By provably correct, I mean that the resulting algorithm is guaranteed to be correct on any instance.” This discovery opens up the field of mathematics and computer science to explore numerous other ...

Rice computer scientists have developed algorithms that account for quantum noise that is not just random, but malicious ...

Computer scientists have written a network flow algorithm that computes almost as fast as is mathematically possible. This algorithm computes the maximum traffic flow with minimum transport costs ...

Artificial intelligence learned how to generate text and art better than ever before, while computer scientists developed algorithms that solved long-standing problems. In 2023, artificial ...

In doing so, he devised perhaps the most famous approximation algorithm in theoretical computer science—one that usually forms the first example in textbooks and courses.

One computer scientist’s “stunning” proof is the first progress in 50 years on one of the most famous questions in computer science.

A global push for more computer science in classrooms is starting to bear fruit ...

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.
