Improved measurement of tinnitus severity: Study of the dimensionality and reliability of the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
ObjectiveThe Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) is widely used in clinical practice and research as a three-dimensional measure of tinnitus severity. Despite extensive use, its factor structure remains unclear.

On the complexity and the information content of cosmic structures

open access: yes, 2016
The emergence of cosmic structure is commonly considered one of the most complex phenomena in Nature. However, this complexity has never been defined nor measured in a quantitative and objective way.

Exploring the reliability, validity, and dimensionality of the ‘Kieler kindergarten test for mathematics’

open access: yesPedagogische Studiën, 2022
Mathematical literacy consists of several content areas. However, in kindergarten, most assessments focus solely on the number area. It is yet unknown whether the content areas of mathematical literacy can already be distinguished in young children. The

Four-dimensional lattice chiral gauge theories with anomalous fermion content

open access: yes, 2007
In continuum field theory, it has been discussed that chiral gauge theories with Weyl fermions in anomalous gauge representations (anomalous gauge theories) can consistently be quantized, provided that some of gauge bosons are permitted to acquire mass ...

Sequence Dependence of Transcription Factor-Mediated DNA Looping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
DNA is subject to large deformations in a wide range of biological processes. Two key examples illustrate how such deformations influence the readout of the genetic information: the sequestering of eukaryotic genes by nucleosomes, and DNA looping in ...

On the complexity of quantum field theory

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We initiate a study of the complexity of quantum field theories (QFTs) by proposing a measure of information contained in a QFT and its observables. We show that from minimal assertions, one is naturally led to measure complexity by two integers, called ...

Approximation of length minimization problems among compact connected sets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we provide an approximation \`a la Ambrosio-Tortorelli of some classical minimization problems involving the length of an unknown one-dimensional set, with an additional connectedness constraint, in dimension two. We introduce a term of new

Quasi-Conscious Multivariate Systems

open access: yes, 2015
Conscious experience is awash with underlying relationships. Moreover, for various brain regions such as the visual cortex, the system is biased toward some states.
