Dynamic optimization of mean and variance in Markov decision processes (MDPs) is a long-standing challenge caused by the failure of dynamic programming. In this paper, we propose a new approach to find the globally optimal policy for combined metrics...
Energy theory for incompressible Newtonian fluids is, in many cases, capable of producing strong absolute stability criteria for steady flows. In those fluids the kinetic energy naturally defines a norm in which perturbations decay monotonically in...
The process of frictional rupture, i.e. the failure of frictional systems, abounds in the technological and natural world around us, ranging from squealing car brake pads to earthquakes along geological faults. A general framework for understanding a...
Despite advances in text-to-3D generation methods, generation of multi-object arrangements remains challenging. Current methods exhibit failures in generating physically plausible arrangements that respect the provided text description. We present Sc...
OpenAI hit "Code Red" in December after Google's Gemini 3 started dominating benchmarks and user growth, forcing teams to drop everything and scramble to catch up. Traffic dipped month-over-month in ...
My dad (71m) has heart failure, diabetes, CKD, moderate-severe anemia, bad arthritis, and currently is fighting pneumonia. Over the last 5 years his health has declined a lot and we have been working ...
Disaggregated memory architectures provide benefits to applications beyond traditional scale out environments, such as independent scaling of compute and memory resources. They also provide an independent failure model, where computations or the comp...
Jun 28, 2017 · The NHC 250’s have become sort of infamous for cavitation caused liner failure. We saw some pitting damage in two motors but none on the third. Chasing cavitation issues was a red …
Oct 11, 2017 · How big is the data you're trying to decrypt? You need to figure out what is using too much memory in your node.js app and/or, you need to increase the amount of memory you node.js …
We present a novel framework that integrates Large Language Models (LLMs) into the Git bisect process for semantic fault localization. Traditional bisect assumes deterministic predicates and binary failure states assumptions often violated in modern...
Poland. Year 1990. After the fall of communism in 1989, Poland transitions to democracy and a free market economy. The economic state of the country is still in shambles, but there is a lot of hope...
The notion of Las Vegas algorithms was introduced by Babai (1979) and can be defined in two ways: * In Babai's original definition, a randomized algorithm is called Las Vegas if it has a finitely bounded running time and certifiable random failure....
Ever since its publication, the Griffith theory is the most widely used criterion for estimating the ideal strength and fracture strength of materials depending on whether the materials contain cracks or not. A Griffith strength limit of ~E/9 is the...
Detecting new information and events in a dynamic network by probing individual nodes has many practical applications: discovering new webpages, analyzing influence properties in network, and detecting failure propagation in electronic circuits or in...
Hi guys, so when I was around 12 to 13yrs old I was diagnosed with bone marrow failure. I had to go through a stem cell transplant which I got around a year later. Eventually, the hospital I went to d...
This short paper describes a numerical method for optimising the conservative confidence bound on the reliability of a system based on tests of its individual components. This is an alternative to the algorithmic approaches identified in Bishop and P...
For a robot to repair its own error, it must first know it has made a mistake. One way that people detect errors is from the implicit reactions from bystanders -- their confusion, smirks, or giggles clue us in that something unexpected occurred. To e...
