Inclusive and differential cross section measurements of t t ¯ b b ¯ production in the lepton+jets channel at √𝑠 = 13 TeV by Hayrapetyan, A., Tumasyan, A., Adam, W., Andrejkovic, J. W., Bergauer, T., Chatterjee, S., Damanakis, K., Dragicevic, M., Escalante Del Valle, A., Hussain, P. S., Jeitler, M., Krammer, N., Liko, D., Mikulec, I., Schieck, J., Schöfbeck, R., Schwarz, D.

“…The cross sections are measured in the lepton+jets decay channel of the top quark pair, using events containing exactly one isolated electron or muon and at least five jets. Measurements are made in four fiducial phase space regions, targeting different aspects of the t t ¯ b b ¯ $$ \textrm{t}\overline{\textrm{t}}\textrm{b}\overline{\textrm{b}} $$ process. …”

Limitations of the Impagliazzo–Nisan–Wigderson Pseudorandom Generator Against Permutation Branching Programs by Hoza, William M., Pyne, Edward, Vadhan, Salil

“…To fool permutation branching programs in the measure of spectral norm, we prove that any spectral analysis of the INW generator requires a seed of length Ω(log𝑛⋅loglog𝑛+log𝑛⋅log(1/ε)) when the width is at least polynomial in n (𝑤=𝑛Ω(1) ), matching the recent upper bound of Hoza–Pyne–Vadhan (ITCS 2021) to within a constant factor.…”

Toward a wearable crowdsource system to monitor respiratory symptoms for pandemic early warning by Zhang, Wei, Li, Jie, Wen, Yonggang, Luo, Yong

“…Preliminary results show that our algorithms result in higher detection accuracy and less false positive with the least use of computing resources. This research potentially transforms the way the pandemic early warning is implemented and the way we respond to public health crises in the years to come.…”

Comparative spatial predictions of the locations of soil-rock interface by Qi, Xiaohui, Pan, Xiaohua, Chiam, Kiefer, Lim, Yong Siang, Lau, Sze Ghiong

“…The results show that the spline interpolation method produces the least consistent estimation of SRI profiles. The spline interpolation method also has lower prediction accuracies than the other three methods and cannot provide any information regarding the prediction uncertainty. …”

Robust pricing and production with information partitioning and adaptation by Perakis, Georgia, Sim, Melvyn, Tang, Qinshen, Xiong, Peng

“…Unlike the standard moment-based ambiguity set, we can adjust the level of robustness by varying the number of information clusters from being the most robust as the standard moment-based ambiguity set with one cluster to being the least robust as the empirical distribution. The partitioned-moment-based ambiguity set also addresses the key challenges in the stochastic dynamic optimization problem to determine how the second-period demand would evolve from the first-period information in a data-driven setting, without the need to impose additional assumptions on the distribution of demands such as independence. …”
