We miss the slide rule. It isn’t so much that we liked getting an inexact answer using a physical moving object. But to ...

Chemists at UCLA are showing that some of organic chemistry’s most famous “rules” aren’t as unbreakable as once thought. By ...

We were getting used to it: a thrilling kickoff soars toward the receiving team, only for it to end in a touchback, resetting the play at the 25-yard line and cutting the action short. But the new NFL ...

Abstract: We propose an efficient and deterministic algorithm for computing the one-dimensional dilation and erosion (max and min) sliding window filters. For a p-element sliding window, our algorithm ...

Abstract: With the development of large-scale sensor networks, there is an increasing interest for high dimensional distributed decision fusion problem in statistical decision, machine learning, ...

There is a rule in mathematics that feels so obvious it barely seems worth stating. Yet accepting it leads to objects with no size, spheres that duplicate themselves, and sets that cannot be measured ...

Millions of investors are making a critical mistake that could leave their finances vulnerable--and at the worst possible time, too. That error? Clinging to so-called "rules of thumb" that sound ...

Nope. I mean, I guess that’s a little reassuring, as we’re now looking at something more like the “21.27-times rule.” Not a nice whole round number, to be sure, but at least it’s more grounded in ...
