Published New computational method validates images without 'ground truth'
(via sciencedaily.com) Researchers have developed a computational method that allows them to determine not if an entire imaging picture is accurate, but if any given point on the image is probable, based on the assumptions built into the model.
Published COVID-19 'super-spreading' events play outsized role in overall disease transmission
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Researchers find COVID-19 super-spreading events, in which one person infects more than six other people, are much more frequent than anticipated, and that they have an outsized contribution to coronavirus transmission.
Published Researchers discover a uniquely quantum effect in erasing information
(via sciencedaily.com) Original source Researchers have discovered a uniquely quantum effect in erasing information that may have significant implications for the design of quantum computing chips. Their surprising discovery brings back to life the paradoxical 'Maxwell's demo', which has tormented physicists for over 150 years.
