Distributed optimisation and algorithms form a vibrant field that addresses the challenge of coordinating multiple agents or nodes to collectively solve global optimisation problems. This domain ...

After reviewing initial results, we were dismayed that although vaccine coverage of communities achieved overall goals, our algorithm had not resulted in corresponding proportional vaccination of ...

Stanford found itself in hot water last week after deploying a faulty Covid-19 vaccine distribution algorithm. But the fiasco offers a cautionary tale that extends far beyond Stanford’s own doors — ...

As the sheer logistical challenge of distributing vaccines to over 300 million Americans looms large, institutions are furiously developing algorithms to assist the rollout. The promise: that ...

Dynamic light scattering techniques are used to determine particle size distributions of protein therapeutic formulations. In DLS-based measurement, scattering intensity changes are associated across ...

For better accountability, we should shift the focus from the design of these systems to their impact. Describing a decision-making system as an “algorithm” is often a way to deflect accountability ...
