Abstract: In many industrial sectors, structural health monitoring (SHM) is considered as an addition to nondestructive testing (NDT) that can reduce maintenance effort during the lifetime of a ...

Most optimization problems in control theory assume you're working in flat space. You have a system, you want to steer it from one state to another, and you minimize some cost along the way. This ...

When Alice and Bob need to transmit dice rolls across a noisy wire, they discover that optimal communication isn't about treating all messages equally, but about assigning shorter signals to more ...

This article presents an application for failure probability in long-pipeline gas systems through the development of trend curves over time for the attributes of corrosion wear, which are related to ...

Abstract: Two existing methods of probabilistic inference are based on variational principles: maximum entropy and minimum Fisher information. In each case, a probability density function is inferred ...

If someone told you that they were “probably” going to have pasta for dinner, but you later found out that they ate pizza, would you feel surprised – or even lied to? More seriously, what does it mean ...

Humans respond to environments that change at many different speeds. A video game player, for example, reacts to on-screen events unfolding within hundreds of milliseconds or over several seconds. A ...

Prediction markets have moved from academic curiosities to regulated financial venues, but the regulatory environment that governs them is still evolving. Wealth management executives now face a new ...

Reliable earthquake recurrence probability assessment is crucial for seismic hazard mitigation but remains challenging due to sparse paleoseismic data on individual faults. We present an enhanced ...

The same connectivity that made Anthropic's Model Context Protocol (MCP) the fastest-adopted AI integration standard in 2025 has created enterprise cybersecurity's most dangerous blind spot. The ...
