Bibliometric methods for the analysis of highly specialized subjects are increasingly investigated and debated. Information and assessments well-focused at the specialty level can help make important decisions in research and innovation policy. This...
There's been a lot of posts giving reasons FOR choosing a certain specialty. But equally important to knowing what you like is knowing what you don't like. So what are some reasons you didn't go to a ...
The Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC) is the current de facto standard to determine agreement between a reference segmentation and one generated by manual / auto-contouring approaches. This metric is useful for non-spatially important images; however...
The opioid epidemic in the United States claims over 40,000 lives per year, and it is estimated that well over two million Americans have an opioid use disorder. Over-prescription and misuse of prescription opioids play an important role in the epide...
Large language models (LLMs) demonstrate outstanding performance in various tasks in machine learning and have thus become one of the most important workloads in today's computing landscape. However, deploying LLM inference poses challenges due to th...
Pressure, together with temperature and magnetic field, is an important thermodynamical parameter in physics. Investigating the response of a compound or of a material to pressure allows to elucidate ground states, investigate their interplay and int...
Dec 27, 2022 · Research has to have an element of discovering something new, of creating knowledge. While a literature search is one important part of a research pro ject, it isn’t research in and of itself.
As AI companions become capable of human-like communication, including telling jokes, understanding how people cognitively and emotionally respond to AI humor becomes increasingly important. This study used electroencephalography (EEG) to compare how...
Image composition plays an important role in the quality of a photo. However, not every camera user possesses the knowledge and expertise required for capturing well-composed photos. While post-capture cropping can improve the composition sometimes,...
**TL;DR:** Scored a 334 by following GregMat's 2-month plan exclusively. The most important resources for me were GregMat's videos, the official ETS guides, and the Manhattan 5lb. book (quant only). ...
The important problem of how to prepare a quantum mechanical system, $S$, in a specific initial state of interest - e.g., for the purposes of some experiment - is addressed. Three distinct methods of state preparation are described. One of these meth...
An important goal in quantum key distribution (QKD) is the task of providing a finite-size security proof without the assumption of collective attacks. For prepare-and-measure QKD, one approach for obtaining such proofs is the generalized entropy acc...
Getting a better understanding of user behavior is important for advancing information retrieval systems. Existing work focuses on modeling and predicting single interaction events, such as clicks. In this paper, we for the first time focus on modeli...
A Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) is becoming an increasingly important tool in regulatory and technical spaces to introduce more transparency and security into a project's software supply chain. Artificial intelligence (AI) projects face unique...
To declare or describe officially; proclaim: a policy that was billed as an important departure for the administration.
As the use of algorithmic systems in high-stakes decision-making increases, the ability to contest algorithmic decisions is being recognised as an important safeguard for individuals. Yet, there is little guidance on what `contestability'--the abilit...
Databases are the most critical assets for enterprises, and yet they remain largely inaccessible to people who make the most important decisions. In this paper, we describe the Tursio search platform that builds an abstraction layer, aka semantic kno...
Cloud computing is a popular distributed network and utility model based technology. Since in cloud the data is outsourced to third parties, the protection of confidentiality and privacy of user data becomes important. Different methods for securing...
We consider three important challenges in conference peer review: (i) reviewers maliciously attempting to get assigned to certain papers to provide positive reviews, possibly as part of quid-pro-quo arrangements with the authors; (ii) "torpedo review...
In this paper we consider stable matchings subject to assignment constraints. These are matchings that require certain assigned pairs to be included, insist that some other assigned pairs are not, and, importantly, are stable. Our main contribution i...
