While advances in single-particle cryo-EM have enabled the structural determination of macromolecular complexes at atomic resolution, particle orientation bias (the ‘preferred’ orientation problem) ...

While deep learning is successful in a number of applications, it is not yet well understood theoretically. A theoretical characterization of deep learning should answer questions about their ...

Computational contact mechanics seeks for numerical solutions to contact area, pressure, deformation, and stresses, as well as flash temperature, in response to the interaction of two bodies. The ...

This work considers the non-adhesive frictionless contact problem of soft materials with surface being tensed by equi-biaxial tension. The boundary element method (BEM) based on Fast Fourier Transform ...

The orientation distribution of a single-particle electron cryomicroscopy specimen limits the resolution of the reconstructed density map. Here we define a statistical quantity, the efficiency, E od, ...

Imagine that you are blindfolded inside an unknown room. You snap your fingers and listen to the room’s response. Can you hear the shape of the room? Some people can do it naturally, but can we design ...

As many readers probably know, part of categorification involves replacing equalities by coherent isomorphisms or equivalences. This is basically unavoidable, since after replacing sets by categories, ...
