Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.This article establishes a Taguchi–Bayesian sampling strategy to reconstruct polymer processing–property landscape at minimal sampling cost, generically building the roadmap for materials database construction from sampling their vast design space. This sampling strategy is featured by an alternating lesson between uniformity and representativeness ...

To ensure that, despite this risk, communication remains advantageous, humans have, we claim, a suite of cognitive mechanisms for epistemic vigilance. Here we outline this claim and consider some of the ways in

Predicting Performance of Hall Effect Ion Source Using Machine Learning
Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.This study introduces HallNN, a machine learning tool for predicting Hall effect ion source performance using a neural network ensemble trained on data generated from numerical simulations. HallNN provides faster and more accurate predictions than numerical methods and traditional scaling laws, making it valuable for designing and optimizing Hall ...

Cohesion: A Measure of Organisation and Epistemic Uncertainty of Incoherent Ensembles
Entropy, 2023 This paper offers a measure of how organised a system is, as defined by self-consistency. Complex dynamics such as tipping points and feedback loops can cause systems with identical initial parameters to vary greatly by their final state.
