Abstract: Autotuning has been widely studied in high performance computing as a very effective mechanism for improving application performance. Such an approach has become particularly crucial for ...

Watching hours of “sheepdog YouTube”—competitions where trained dogs shepherd a small number of unpredictable sheep—gave ...

Encryption systems rely on “random” numbers, but conventional computers can’t generate them perfectly. New research shows that quantum physics can.

Data science and machine learning algorithms can help us form probabilistic forecasts of things like sporting events.

Are two sets of data genuinely different, or is it because of randomness? This question, known as the two-sample testing problem, becomes notoriously difficult in modern datasets, because they are ...

Modern fluorescence microscopy can generate images of living cells as stunning to look at as they are informative to study. For techniques like fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), those ...

Statisticians call this variable selection: identifying which variables, or features, are most important when correlated with ...
