- Mon, 21 Oct 2019 15:49:18 +0000: Novel method turns any 3D object into a cubic style - Mathematics News -- ScienceDaily
Computer scientists have developed a computational method to quantify an abstract cubic style. Additionally, their method also enables users to create new shapes that resemble the input shape and exhibit the cubic style. - Thu, 17 Oct 2019 11:55:50 +0000: Mathematical modeling vital to tackling disease outbreaks - Mathematics News -- ScienceDaily
Predicting and controlling disease outbreaks would be easier and more reliable with the wider application of mathematical modelling, according to a new study. - Thu, 17 Oct 2019 11:55:48 +0000: Information theory as a forensics tool for investigating climate mysteries - Mathematics News -- ScienceDaily
During Earth's last glacial period, temperatures on the planet periodically spiked dramatically and rapidly. A new article suggests that mathematics from information theory could offer a powerful tool for analyzing and understanding these mysterious events. - Tue, 15 Oct 2019 20:46:44 +0000: Experiment measures velocity in 3D - Mathematics News -- ScienceDaily
Many of today's scientific processes are simulated using computer-driven mathematical models. But for a model to accurately predict how air flow behaves at high speeds, for example, scientists need supplemental real life data. Providing validation data, using up-to-date methods, was a key motivating factor for a recent experimental study. - Thu, 10 Oct 2019 13:58:15 +0000: Algorithm personalizes which cancer mutations are best targets for immunotherapy - Mathematics News -- ScienceDaily
As tumor cells multiply, they often spawn tens of thousands of genetic mutations. Figuring out which ones are the most promising to target with immunotherapy is like finding a few needles in a haystack. Now a new model hand-picks those needles so they can be leveraged in more effective, customized cancer vaccines.
