Prediction of individual's race and ethnicity plays an important role in social science and public health research. Examples include studies of racial disparity in health and voting. Recently, Bayesian Improved Surname Geocoding (BISG), which uses Ba...
In this paper we explore the possibility of using bibliographic databases for tracking the geographic origin of surnames. Surnames are used as a proxy to determine the ethnic, genetic or geographic origin of individuals in many fields such as Genetic...
From administrative registers of last names in Santiago, Chile, we create a surname affinity network that encodes socioeconomic data. This network is a multi-relational graph with nodes representing surnames and edges representing the prevalence of i...
The field of environmental epidemiology has placed an increasing emphasis on understanding the health effects of mixtures of metals, chemicals, and pollutants in recent years. Bayesian Kernel Machine Regression (BKMR) is a statistical method that has...
We consider multi-path routing of entanglement in quantum networks, where a pre-prepared multipartite entangled 2D cluster state serves as a resource to perform different tasks on demand. We show how to achieve parallel connections between multiple,...
The construction of Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) datasets is a critical yet under-theorized stage in the post-training of Large Language Models (LLMs), as prevalent practices often rely on heuristic aggregation without a systematic understanding of h...

This writeup summarizes the status of neutrino oscillations, including recent fluxes and experimental data, as of summer 2006. A discussion is given on the current status of absolute scale of neutrino mass from tritium, neutrinoless double beta dec...
Research in machine learning, mobile robotics, and autonomous driving is accelerated by the availability of high quality annotated data. To this end, we release the Audi Autonomous Driving Dataset (A2D2). Our dataset consists of simultaneously record...
This is a review article for The Review of Particle Physics 2006 (aka the Particle Data Book). It forms a compact review of knowledge of the cosmological parameters as at May 2006. Topics included are Parametrizing the Universe; Extensions to the s...
A lot of you found the first version helpful, so I made a new and improved sheet with (hopefully) up-to-date info. It’s aligned with [ARCtracker’s](https://arctracker.io/) data and adds clearer ca...
The notion of polyptych lattices, introduced by Escobar, Harada, and Manon, wraps the data of a collection of lattices related by piecewise-linear bijections together into a single semi-algebraic object, equipped with its own notions of convexity and...
Compressed bitmap indexes are used in databases and search engines. Many bitmap compression techniques have been proposed, almost all relying primarily on run-length encoding (RLE). However, on unsorted data, we can get superior performance with a hy...
Purpose: To introduce a novel deep learning method for Robust and Accelerated Reconstruction (RoAR) of quantitative and B0-inhomogeneity-corrected R2* maps from multi-gradient recalled echo (mGRE) MRI data. Methods: RoAR trains a convolutional neur...
The Subtractive Optimally Localized Averages (SOLA) method, developed and extensively used in helioseismology, is applied to artificial data to obtain measures of the sound speed inside a solar-type star. In contrast to inversion methods which fit...
Jul 8, 2024 · Researchers from MIT and elsewhere developed an easy-to-use tool that enables someone to perform complicated statistical analyses on tabular data using just a few keystrokes. â¦

A measurement is reported of the jet mass distribution in hadronic decays of boosted top quarks produced in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV. The data were collected with the CMS detector at the LHC and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 3...
Protecting data in memory from attackers continues to be a concern in computing systems. CHERI is a promising approach to achieve such protection, by providing and enforcing fine-grained memory protection directly in the hardware. Creating trust for...
It seems local bitcoins now 'NEEDS' your personal gov ID data to supposedly protect YOU from identity theft. This is utter nonsense. None of us do business with localbitcoins, no fiat funds are ever s...
