Mentorship at a distance [PDF]

Science, 2020
The year is 2022. It is a warm summer day in Boston, and Naomi, an incoming graduate student, sits in a cafe waiting for two colleagues who have greatly influenced her career—although they've never met in person. It was back in 2020 when Naomi, then an undergraduate at Howard University, spent a summer working virtually with Matthias, a postdoc, and ...

Sublinear Distance Labeling [PDF]

, 2016
A distance labeling scheme labels the $n$ nodes of a graph with binary strings such that, given the labels of any two nodes, one can determine the distance in the graph between the two nodes by looking only at the labels.

Information distance

IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 1998
While Kolmogorov complexity is the accepted absolute measure of information content in an individual finite object, a similarly absolute notion is needed for the information distance between two individual objects, for example, two pictures. We give several natural definitions of a universal information metric, based on length of shortest programs for ...

Evaluation of Learners’ Satisfaction with Open Flexible and Distance Learning Services at the University of Lagos Distance Learning Institute

West African Journal of Open and Flexible Learning
The prospects of Open and Distance Learning (ODL) as the best way to acquire formal education, especially having to work and learn simultaneously have led to curiosity in investigating the challenges that come with this great opportunity.

Biharmonic distance of graphs [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Lipman et al. [ACM Transactions on Graphics 29 (3) (2010), 1--11] introduced the concept of biharmonic distance to measure the distances between pairs of points on a 3D surface. Biharmonic distance has some advantages over resistance distance and geodesic distance in some realistic contexts.

Short distance non-perturbative effects of large distance modified gravity [PDF]

, 2005
In a model of large distance modified gravity we compare the nonperturbative Schwarzschild solution of hep-th/0407049 to approximate solutions obtained previously.

No Fuss Distance Metric Learning Using Proxies [PDF]

IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision, 2017
We address the problem of distance metric learning (DML), defined as learning a distance consistent with a notion of semantic similarity. Traditionally, for this problem supervision is expressed in the form of sets of points that follow an ordinal ...

Evaluating the origin and spread of spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula) in Japan

Population Ecology, Volume 67, Issue 2, Page 162-179, April 2025.
The invasive spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula) is native to China and is a serious economic pest in the Republic of Korea and the United States, though it is not considered a pest in Japan. We established a distribution map of L. delicatula in Japan through a comprehensive review of published literature and citizen science reports and analyzed ...
