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 ...

Non-Iterative Method for Modeling Systematic Data Errors in Power System Risk Assessment ...

Solving life's great mysteries often requires detective work, using observed outcomes to determine their cause. For instance, ...

The global investment environment is full of uncertainty - from inflation, growth dynamics, to policy shifts and geopolitical ...

In a pair of papers submitted June 17 at arXiv.org, researchers generated conditions called “magic states,” crucial components of quantum computations. And those magic states were high-quality enough ...

A physicist solves an old thermodynamic puzzle and demonstrates directly from the second law that entropy disappears at ...

Scientists reveal that a key evolutionary theory about rapid change is wrong, caused mainly by statistical noise in the data.

It is proved that for all values of code length n, except when n=2, 4, and 8 and possibly when n=2/sup r/ and n=2/sup r/+1, where r/spl ges/1, the Hamming codes are also optimal systematic single ...
