Real Effect or Bias? Best Practices for Evaluating the Robustness of Real-World Evidence through Quantitative Sensitivity Analysis for Unmeasured Confounding

Posted by klaurent Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Douglas Faries, Chenyin Gao, Xiang Zhang, Chad Hazlett, James Stamey | Summary: The assumption of no unmeasured confounders is a critical but unverifiable assumption required for causal inference yet quantitative sensitivity analyses to assess robustness of real-world evidence remains underutilized. The lack of use is likely in […]

Improving HEVC Encoding of Rendered Video Data Using True Motion Information

Posted by klaurent Cornell

Kavli Affiliate: David Muller | First 5 Authors: Christian Herglotz, David Müller, Andreas Weinlich, Frank Bauer, Michael Ortner | Summary: This paper shows that motion vectors representing the true motion of an object in a scene can be exploited to improve the encoding process of computer generated video sequences. Therefore, a set of sequences is […]

In operando cryo-STEM of pulse-induced charge density wave switching in TaS$_2$

Posted by klaurent Cornell

Kavli Affiliate: Lena F. Kourkoutis | First 5 Authors: James L Hart, Saif Siddique, Noah Schnitzer, Stephen D. Funni, Lena F. Kourkoutis | Summary: The charge density wave (CDW) material 1T-TaS$_2$ exhibits a pulse-induced insulator-to-metal transition, which shows promise for next-generation electronics such as memristive memory and neuromorphic hardware. However, the rational design of TaS$_2$ […]

Fully scalable randomized benchmarking without motion reversal

Posted by klaurent Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Birgitta Whaley | First 5 Authors: Jordan Hines, Daniel Hothem, Robin Blume-Kohout, Birgitta Whaley, Timothy Proctor | Summary: We introduce binary randomized benchmarking (BiRB), a protocol that streamlines traditional RB by using circuits consisting almost entirely of i.i.d. layers of gates. BiRB reliably and efficiently extracts the average error rate of a Clifford […]

Approximate Lie symmetries and singular perturbation theory

Posted by klaurent Harvard

Kavli Affiliate: L. Mahadevan | First 5 Authors: Alexander J. Dear, L. Mahadevan, , , | Summary: Perturbation theory plays a central role in the approximate solution of nonlinear differential equations. The resultant series expansions are usually divergent and require treatment by singular perturbation methods to generate uniformly valid solutions. However, applying these methods is […]

Kavli Affiliate: L. Mahadevan | First 5 Authors: Alexander J. Dear, L. Mahadevan, , , | Summary: Singular perturbation theory plays a central role in the approximate solution of nonlinear differential equations. However, applying these methods is a subtle art owing to the lack of globally applicable algorithms. Inspired by the fact that all exact […]

The Effectiveness of Security Interventions on GitHub

Posted by klaurent Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Felix Fischer | First 5 Authors: Felix Fischer, Jonas Höbenreich, Jens Grossklags, , | Summary: Since 2017, GitHub has been the first online open source platform to show security warnings to its users. It has since introduced further security interventions to help developers improve the security of their open source software. In this […]
