Introduction The Transparent Reporting of a multivariable prediction model of Individual Prognosis Or Diagnosis (TRIPOD) statement was published to improve the reporting and critical appraisal of prediction model studies for diagnosis and prognosis. This paper describes the processes and methods that will be used to…

We construct Locally Recoverable Codes (LRCs) with availability 2 from a family of fibered surfaces. To obtain the locality and availability properties, and to estimate the minimum distance of the codes, we combine techniques coming from the theory of one-variable function fields and from the theory of fibrations on…

The central problem of biology is the origin of biological organization. We show, using information theory, that an organism does not contain enough organism-specific information to specify its own fully functioning microscopic organization. The organized machinery of life is therefore not the execution of a fully…

PLOS Medicine has always championed open science and data transparency. Now, recognizing that code is as essential a research artifact as the data it analyzes, we are strengthening our code sharing policy to further ensure reproducibility and trust in the scientific record.

Locally repairable codes with availability have become essential components in modern large-scale distributed cloud storage systems and numerous other applications. In this paper, we focus on the construction of locally repairable codes with one or two recovering sets via elliptic function fields. Prior pioneering work…

In this paper, we propose several constructions of Locally Recoverable Codes from elliptic surfaces. In particular, we are able to obtain codes with availability $t>2$, codes with hierarchical locality and, finally, codes which combine availability and hierarchical locality. Our constructions rely on the properties of…

People around the world seek climate risk information to guide their decisions. For instance, projections about future flood risk inform where households choose to live, how lenders manage credit risks, and which communities receive federal funding. Yet data limitations and fundamental validation challenges raise…

Background Code status determination typically relies on the expected benefits and harms of treatment intensification and patient values and preferences. Resource availability may also influence code status decisions. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for critical care often exceeded the available resources.…

The increasing importance and predictive power of modern molecular modeling, driven by physics- and machine learning-based methods, necessitates a new collaborative architecture to replace the isolated, traditional model of software development. The traditional approach often led to redundant engineering effort, high…

Bayesian optimization (BO) has become increasingly important for experimental optimization across scientific domains, yet implementing BO pipelines requires significant programming expertise and familiarity with specialized frameworks. This creates a barrier for domain experts who could benefit from BO but lack the…

The integration of AI agents as coding assistants into software development has raised questions about the long-term viability of AI agent-generated code. A prevailing hypothesis within the software engineering community suggests this code is "disposable", meaning it is merged quickly but discarded shortly thereafter.…

Demographic characteristics of the participants: participants were drawn from 22 study units, including ward in-charges, procurement, and supply chain staff. Most were female, aged between 36 and 45 years, with a mean age of 43. Educational qualifications ranged from a diploma to degree level, and the average work…

The 2021-2022 ESPA survey used four main instruments: a facility inventory questionnaire, a health provider interview questionnaire, observation protocols and an exit interview. For this study, we have used the data from ‘facility inventory questionnaire’ and ‘health provider questionnaire’. The instruments were…

Deciphering the neural code requires identifying its fundamental symbols or code-words. Neural activity is usually interpreted either as a rate code – based on average spike counts – or as a temporal code, which distinguishes patterns with identical counts. Yet, the symbols of the code remain undefined. Here we show…

Open data sharing is increasingly mandated by research funders, journals, and institutions, yet large-scale compliance measurement remains challenging. We analyzed 951,949 open access biomedical research articles published between January 2024 and June 2025 using a dual-source pipeline: PDF-based text extraction…

Scientific computing has become a central component of modern scientific discovery. Yet many computational tools are developed by small, specialized teams under incentives that encourage the release of rapidly prototyped tooling without commensurate attention to engineering concerns, including performance and…

Physical-layer security can aid in establishing secure telecommunication networks including cellular, Internet of Things, and telemetry networks, among others. Channel sounding techniques and/or telemetry systems for reporting channel conditions, coupled with superior wiretap code design are necessary to implement such…
