There's nothing to get a scientist's heart pumping like a good, old-fashioned statistical debate. When it comes to topics ...

Alignment and sequencing errors are a major concern in molecular evolution, and this valuable study represents a welcome improvement for genome-wide scans of positive selection. This new method seems ...

Bayesian statistics are a fitting solution for many of the data challenges we face today. Our own brains are statisticians that try to understand the world around us in terms of probabilities.

Core math topics like linear algebra, statistics, and calculus form the foundation of data science.• Real-world projects and ...

Researchers at The University of Texas at Arlington have developed a new computational tool that helps scientists pinpoint proteins known as transcriptional regulators that control how genes turn on ...

Selecting a random sample from a set is simple. But what about selecting a fair random sample from a set of unknown or ...

Here we use cryogenic electron microscopy to determine the structure of TbAQP2 from Trypanosoma brucei, bound to either the substrate glycerol or to the sleeping sickness drugs, pentamidine or ...

For over a decade, researchers have considered boson sampling—a quantum computing protocol involving light particles—as a key ...

Objective We aimed to estimate prevalence and identify determinants of hypertension in adults aged 15–49 years in Tanzania. Design We analysed cross-sectional survey data from the 2022 Tanzania ...

Here is a simple example: Let's say you are purchasing a $1,000 CD from a bank that pays 2% every year. To calculate the value of your money after five years, use this formula: ...

Current computational approaches to learning visual object categories require thousands of training images, are slow, cannot learn in an incremental manner and cannot incorporate prior information ...

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have gained tremendous popularity in many application areas over the recent years. Safety-critical applications as found in the aerospace domain require that the behavior ...
