As the world races to build artificial superintelligence, one maverick bioengineer is testing how much unprogrammed intelligence may already be lurking in our simplest algorithms to determine whether ...

Differential privacy (DP) stands as the gold standard for protecting user information in large-scale machine learning and data analytics. A critical task within DP is partition selection—the process ...

If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle the easiest pieces first. But this kind of sorting has a cost.

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Computer scientists often deal with abstract problems that are hard to comprehend, but an exciting new algorithm matters to anyone who ...

We then select the next smallest element in the array, which is 3. 3 is already in the correct position, so we don't need to swap it. We then select the next smallest element in the array, which is 4.
