Richard Feynman described a decision-making problem and its solution in handwritten notes, but the meaning of the notes has been a mystery for almost 50 y. We decipher the problem and solution from ...

The goal of the course is to improve programming and problem-solving skills of the students by facing them with difficult problems and by presenting the techniques that help their reasoning in the ...

Back in the old days, traditional phrase-based translation systems performed their task by breaking up source sentences into multiple chunks and then translated them phrase-by-phrase. This led to ...

American higher education is the envy of the world, and it’s also failing our students on a massive scale. How can both be true simultaneously? Our decentralized, competitive system of research ...

The design of metamaterials which support unique optical responses is the basis for most thin-film nanophotonic applications. In practice, this inverse design (ID) problem can be difficult to solve ...

Uncertainties are widespread in the optimization of process systems, such as uncertainties in process technologies, prices, and customer demands. In this paper, we review the basic concepts and recent ...

Accurate target detection and association are vital for the development of reliable target tracking, especially for cell tracking based on microscopy images due to the similarity of cells. We propose ...

In some important applications, standard measurements generate many features automatically, few of which are likely to be useful in any specific project, but researchers do not know in advance which ...
