On Time-Bounded Incompressibility of Compressible Strings and Sequences
, 2009 For every total recursive time bound $t$, a constant fraction of all compressible (low Kolmogorov complexity) strings is $t$-bounded incompressible (high time-bounded Kolmogorov complexity); there are uncountably many infinite sequences of which every ...

Towards an evidence-based integrative lighting score: a proposed multi-level approach
Annals of MedicineBackground: Human circadian clocks are synchronized daily with the external light-dark cycle and entrained to the 24-hour day. There is increasing evidence that a lack of synchronization and circadian entrainment can lead to adverse health effects ...
