Quantifying Imperfect Cognition Via Achieved Information Gain

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, EarlyView.
Cognition, the processing of information in the form of inference, communication, and memorization, is the central activity of any intelligence. To quantify imperfect cognition, the concept of achieved information gain (AIG) is introduced. AIG can be derived axiomatically, allows cognitive fidelity and efficiency to be defined mathematically, and ...

Review of the anatomical basis for predicting plutonium alpha particle radiation induced osteogenic cancers

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.
