Stodden et al. (1) bring welcome attention to the problem of reproducibility of computational analyses, and recommend guidelines for addressing the barriers to

Incorporating an Optical Clock into a Time Scale

Author(s)
Jian Yao, Thomas E. Parker, Neil Ashby, Judah Levine
This paper discusses how to build a time scale with an intermittently-operated optical clock. In particular, it gives suggestions on how long and how often to

Activity measurements of the radionuclides 18F and 64Cu for the NIST, USA in the ongoing comparisons BIPM.RI(II)-K4.F-18 and BIPM.RI(II)-K4.Cu-64

In 2016, comparisons of activity measurements of 18F and 64Cu using the Transfer Instrument of the International Reference System (SIRTI) took place at the

Latent Fingerprint Value Prediction: Crowd-based Learning

Author(s)
Elham Tabassi, Anil K. Jain, Tarang Chugh, Kai Cao, Jiayu Zhou
Latent fingerprints are one of the most crucial sources of evidence in forensic investigations. As such, devel- opment of automatic latent fingerprint

Neuromorphic Computing through Time-Multiplexing with a Spin-Torque Nano-Oscillator

Mathieu Riou, Flavio Abreu Araujo, Jacob Torrejon, Sumito Tsunegi, Guru Khalsa, Damien Querlioz, Paolo Bortolotti, Vincent Cros, K. Yakushiji, Akio Fukushima, Hitoshi Kubota, Shinji Yuasa, Mark D. Stiles, Julie Grollier
Fabricating powerful neuromorphic chips the size of a thumb requires miniaturizing both hardware synapses and neurons. The challenge for neurons is to scale

GaN Nanowire MOSFET with Near-Ideal Subthreshold Slope

Author(s)
Kristine A. Bertness, Wenjun Li, Matthew D. Brubaker, Bryan T. Spann, Patrick Fay
Top-gated GaN nanowire MOSFETs using Al2O3 as gate oxide have been experimentally demonstrated. The fabricated devices exhibit a minimum subthreshold slope of

Dynamic Spectrum Access Algorithms Based on Survival Analysis

Author(s)
Timothy Hall, Anirudha Sahoo, Robert C. Hagwood, Sarah B. Streett
In this study, we design and implement two algorithms for dynamic spectrum access (DSA) that are based on survival analysis. They use a non-parametric estimate
