An accurate multiclass classification strategy is crucial to interpreting antibody tests. However, traditional methods based on confidence intervals or receiver operating characteristics lack clear extensions to settings with more than two classes. We

This Recommendation specifies the set of elliptic curves recommended for U.S. Government use. In addition to the previously recommended Weierstrass curves defined over prime fields and binary fields, this Recommendation includes two newly specified Edwards
Airfoil shape design is a classical problem in engineering and manufacturing. In this work, we combine principled physics-based considerations for the shape design problem with modern computational techniques using a data-driven approach. Modern and

Objective: Respiratory motion (i.e., motion pattern and rate) can provide valuable information in many medical situations. This information may help diagnose different health disorders and diseases. Wi-Fi-based respiratory monitoring schemes utilizing
In this paper, we prove a compressive sensing guarantee for restricted measurement domains in spherical near-field to far-field transformations for antenna metrology. We achieve this by first defining Slepian functions on a measurement sub-domain $R$ of

Data-driven modeling of dynamical systems has drawn much research attention recently, with the goal of approximating the underlying governing rules of a dynamical system with data-driven differential equations. Many real-world dynamical systems can be

The National Institute of Standards and Technology's Communications Technology Laboratory conducted a cellular communication system pilot experiment in the summer of 2021. This pilot experiment was done to prepare for a broad-scope experiment to

We investigate some different systems for extracting mathematical entities from texts in the mathematical field of category theory, as a first step for constructing a mathematical knowledge graph. We consider four different term extractors and compare
A graph is $k$-chordal if it does not have an induced cycle with length greater than $k$. We call a graph chordal if it is $3$-chordal. Let $G$ be a graph. The distance between the vertices $x$ and $y$, denoted by $d_G}(x,y)$, is the length of a shortest

Classical machine learning (ML) provides a potentially powerful approach to solving challenging quantum many-body problems that arise in physics and chemistry, but the advantages of ML over more traditional classical methods have not been firmly
Variational autoencoders (VAEs) are rapidly gaining popularity within molecular simulation for discovering low- dimensional, or latent, representations, which are critical for both analyzing and accelerating simulations. However, it remains unclear how the

We present experimental findings on the decoding failure rate (DFR) of BIKE, a third-round candidate in the NIST Post-Quantum Standardization process, at the 20-bit security level. We select parameters according to BIKE design principles and conduct a
This Recommendation specifies techniques for the derivation of additional keying material from a secret key—either established through a key-establishment scheme or shared through some other manner—using pseudorandom functions: HMAC, CMAC, and KMAC.
In this paper, we explore the symmetric nature of the terminating basic hypergeometric series representations of the Askey–Wilson polynomials and the corresponding terminating basic hypergeometric transformations that these polynomials satisfy. In

On even-dimensional Euclidean space for integer powers of the positive Laplace operator greater than or equal to half the dimension, a fundamental solution of the polyharmonic equation has binomial and logarithmic behavior. Gegenbauer polynomial expansions
With an artificial example of a 2D nonlinear advection diffusion equation on the unit square this paper considers the data assimilation problem of finding initial values that can evolve into a close approximation to a desired target result at some

The National Institute of Standards and Technology is in the process of selecting public-key cryptographic algorithms through a public, competition-like process. The new public-key cryptography standards will specify additional digital signature, public
We describe the utility of integral representations for sums of basic hypergeometric functions. In particular we use these to derive an infinite sequence of transformations for symmetrizations over certain variables which the functions possess. These

X-ray tomography is capable of imaging the interior of objects in three dimensions non-invasively, with applications in biomedical imaging, materials study, electronic inspection, and other fields. The reconstruction process can be an ill-conditioned
We derive an expansion for the fundamental solution of Laplace's equation in flat-ring coordinates in three-dimensional Euclidean space. This expansion is a double series of products of functions that are harmonic in the interior and exterior of "flat
Discovering meaningful collective variables for enhancing sampling, via applied biasing potentials or tailored MC move sets, remains a major challenge within molecular simulation. While recent studies identifying collective variables with variational
A Heron triangle is one in which the side lengths and area are integers. An integral right triangle is an example of a Heron triangle. In this paper, we show that there are infinitely many pairs of integral right triangles and Heron triangles with a common
Single-photon detection via absorption in current-biased nanoscale superconducting structures has become a preferred technology in quantum optics and related fields. Single-mode fiber packaged devices have seen new records set in detection efficiency
