Abstract: This study investigates the performance of discrete-time systems under quantized iterative learning control. An encoding–decoding mechanism is combined with a spherical polar ...

The origin of many diseases begins at the cellular level and involves multiple molecular interactions. However, previous methods have struggled to accurately observe changes in individual cells.

Abstract: Random Linear Network Coding (RLNC) provides a theoretically efficient method for coding. The drawbacks associated with it are the complexity of the decoding and the overhead resulting from ...

Ms. Amina Mohammed, Deputy Secretary-General - Introduction Ms. Doreen Bogdan-Martin, Secretary-General of the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) - Expertise-on-demand mechanism Mr. Jens ...

For more than 50 years, scientists have sought alternatives to silicon for building molecular electronics. The vision was elegant; the reality proved far more complex. Within a device, molecules ...

The room we are in is locked. It is windowless and lit from above by a fluorescent bulb. In the hallway outside—two stories beneath the city of London—attendants in dark suits patrol silently, giving ...

We can't protect what we don't understand. From decoding wolf howls to making sense of millions of citizen-science sightings, we explore the tools helping researchers understand the wild in new ways.

Before a car crash in 2008 left her paralysed from the neck down, Nancy Smith enjoyed playing the piano. Years later, Smith started making music again, thanks to an implant that recorded and analysed ...

Part 2 of the TED Radio Hour episode Move fast...and fix democracy? Government feels stuck on dial-up. Political advisor Jennifer Pahlka explains how smarter tech—and less red tape—could finally speed ...

For centuries, humans have drawn a line between themselves and other species, initially claiming that other animals couldn’t feel pain. Science proved they could. Then the argument shifted: Animals ...
