We spoke to David Klenerman, co-developer of sequencing by synthesis, to find out how his work heralded the next generation ...

Abstract: Whereas interior point methods provide polynomial-time linear programming algorithms, the running time bounds depend on bit-complexity or condition measures that can be unbounded in the ...

The lactational amenorrhea method (LAM) is a type of birth control that relies on hormones your body makes while breastfeeding. If you strictly meet the guidelines, LAM can be 98% effective in ...

Abstract: Linear spectral unmixing aims at estimating the number of pure spectral substances, also called endmembers, their spectral signatures, and their abundance fractions in remotely sensed ...

In this paper a new hybrid glowworm swarm algorithm (SAGSO) for solving structural optimization problems is presented. The structure proposed to be optimized here is a simply-supported concrete I-beam ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. In 1939, upon arriving late to his statistics course at UC Berkeley, George Dantzig—a first-year graduate student—copied two problems ...

The leading approach to the simplex method, a widely used technique for balancing complex logistical constraints, can’t get any better. In 1939, upon arriving late to his statistics course at the ...

Despite the widespread success of neural networks, their susceptibility to adversarial examples remains a significant challenge. Adversarial training (AT) has emerged as an effective approach to ...

Fifteen years ago it was unfathomable – and a bad idea – to imagine that your digital messages could automatically self-destruct.. Once your message is on someone else’s machine, you simply cannot ...

Objectives To investigate the relationship between herpes simplex virus (HSV) and hearing loss using comprehensive population-based research. Design This cross-sectional study utilised data from the ...
