Russia seeks continuity, China seeks recognition, the United States seeks validation mdash; and the global order will be decided by the myth that withstands reality .

Rational artificial intelligence sounds simple on paper: build systems that make sensible decisions based on goals, evidence, and logic. Yet ...

Abstract: In this paper, we obtain a general characterization of discrete-time all-pass rational matrix functions from state-space representations. We establish a general characterization of the ...

Quantum coin flip: In quantum mechanics, wavefunction collapse is traditionally regarded as an instantaneous event, but quantum state diffusion treats it as a gradual process, like a coin that wobbles ...

As operators embrace multi-cloud and cloud-native architectures, cloud-native function validation is proving to be an ongoing requirement than a one-time check As operators have migrated to ...

In the late 19th century, Karl Weierstrass invented a fractal-like function that was decried as nothing less than a “deplorable evil.” In time, it would transform the foundations of mathematics.

Biological systems can process information without expending energy, and the limit to what can be achieved in this way is known as a Hopfield barrier. We characterize this barrier for the sharpness of ...

At this year's Retina World Congress meeting, Jaclyn L. Kovach, MD, FASRS, Professor of Clinical Ophthalmology, Medical Retina Fellowship Director, at Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, presented on the ...

Even though human experience unfolds continuously in time, it is not strictly linear; instead, it entails cascading processes building hierarchical cognitive structures. For instance, during speech ...

Quantum annealing (QA) can be competitive to classical algorithms in optimizing continuous-variable functions when running on appropriate hardware, show researchers from Tokyo Tech. By comparing the ...
