On the Algorithmic Nature of the World [PDF]
Gordana Dodig-Crnkovic and Mark Burgin (eds.) Information and
Computation by World Scientific, 2010, 2009 We propose a test based on the theory of algorithmic complexity and an experimental evaluation of Levin's universal distribution to identify evidence in support of or in contravention of the claim that the world is algorithmic in nature. To this end we have undertaken a statistical comparison of the frequency distributions of data from physical sources

Multiwavelength campaign of the gamma-ray flaring source PKS 2052-47 [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 The flat-spectrum radio quasar PKS 2052-47 experienced an optical flare in July-August, 2009. On August 9, the LAT detector onboard Fermi observed a flare from the source, which reached its active phase in the following two months. To further investigate the physics and emission mechanisms during the flaring state of this source, we arranged a ...

The spectral energy distribution of gamma-faint compact radio sources [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 MOJAVE is a VLBI program which monitors a statistically complete, radio-selected sample of 135 relativistically beamed, flat-spectrum active galactic nuclei for over more than a decade. In order to understand the high-energy behavior of this radio complete sample, we are performing Swift fill-in observations on the complete MOJAVE-I sample since 2007 ...

SIMULATING OZONE EFFECTS ON FOREST PRODUCTIVITY: INTERACTIONS AMONG LEAF‐, CANOPY‐, AND STAND‐LEVEL PROCESSES [PDF]
, 1997 Ozone pollution in the lower atmosphere is known to have adverse effects on forest vegetation, but the degree to which mature forests are impacted has been very difficult to assess directly.

Journal of Magnesium and Alloys, 2017 As-extruded Mg-6Zn (wt.%) Alloy was subjected to severe plastic deformation (SPD) by the equal-channel angular pressing(ECAP) at 160 oC. The results of tensile tests at room temperature showed that two passes ECAP resulted in a remarkable improvement of ...

Evaluating electrophysiological and behavioral measures of neural health in cochlear implant users: a computational simulation study [PDF]
arXivNeural health refers to the condition and functionality of the auditory nerve fibers (ANFs),which are crucial for transmitting sound signals from the cochlea to the brain.However, neural health cannot be directly measured due to current technological limitations. We utilize a computational model to evaluate different indirect methods for estimating ANF

Bayesian inference in high-dimensional linear models using an empirical correlation-adaptive prior
, 2018 In the context of a high-dimensional linear regression model, we propose the use of an empirical correlation-adaptive prior that makes use of information in the observed predictor variable matrix to adaptively address high collinearity, determining if ...

Development of Combined Opto-Acoustical Sensor Modules
, 2011 The faint fluxes of cosmic neutrinos expected at very high energies require large instrumented detector volumes. The necessary volumes in combination with a sufficient shielding against background constitute forbidding and complex environments (e.g.

Hemodynamic Markers: CFD-Based Prediction of Cerebral Aneurysm Rupture Risk [PDF]
arXivThis study investigates the influence of aneurysm evolution on hemodynamic characteristics within the sac region. Using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), blood flow through the parent vessel and aneurysm sac was analyzed to assess the impact on wall shear stress (WSS), time-averaged wall shear stress (TAWSS), and the oscillatory shear index (OSI ...
