A health care algorithm makes black patients substantially less likely than their white counterparts to receive important medical treatment. The major flaw affects millions of patients, and was just ...

We live in the Age of the Algorithm, where computer models save time, money and lives. Gone are the days when labyrinthine formulae were the exclusive domain of finance and the sciences - nonprofit ...

Examples are often a natural way to specify various computational artifacts such as programs, queries, and sequences. Synthesizing such artifacts from example based specifications has various ...

Citable release of K-compensated de Casteljau algorithm. Of note is the implementation of the algorithm in C, C++ and Python.

Abstract: Ruled surface design and its applications are widely used in CAGD (computer aided geometric design) and industrial areas. The dual De Casteljau algorithm [K. Sprott et. al., (1997)] is for ...
