Distances that perfectly mislead.
Given a collection of discrete characters (e.g., aligned DNA sites, gene adjacencies), a common measure of distance between taxa is the proportion of characters for which taxa have different character states. Tree reconstruction based on these (uncorrected) distances can be statistically inconsistent and can lead to trees different from those obtained using character-based methods such as maxim...
متن کاملNightmares that mislead to diagnosis of reactivation of PTSD
BACKGROUND Sleep disturbance is a common characteristic of patients with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Besides the clinical descriptions of nightmares and insomnia, periodic limb movements (PLMs) are reported to co-occur in PTSD. Although the causal relationship between sleep disturbance and PTSD is not fully understood, sleep disturbance is an independent risk factor for the developme...
متن کاملSPHINX: A Password Store that Perfectly Hides from Itself
Password managers (aka stores or vaults) represent a security technique that allows a user to store and retrieve (usually high-entropy) passwords for her multiple passwordprotected services by interacting with a “device” serving the role of the manager (e.g., a smartphone or an online third-party service) on the basis of a single (low-entropy) master password. Existing password managers work we...
متن کاملThere exist nonorthogonal quantum measurements that are perfectly repeatable.
We show that, contrary to the widespread belief, in quantum mechanics repeatable measurements are not necessarily described by orthogonal projectors--the customary paradigm of observable. Nonorthogonal repeatability, however, occurs only for infinite dimensions. We also show that, when a nonorthogonal repeatable measurement is performed, the measured system retains some "memory" of the number o...
متن کاملWeb of Science: showing a bug today that can mislead scientific research output's prediction
As it happened in all domains of human activities, economic issues and the increase of people working in scientific research have altered the way scientific production is evaluated so as the objectives of performing the evaluation. Introduced in 2005 by J. E. Hirsch as an indicator able to measure individual scientific output not only in terms of quantity, but also in terms of quality, h index ...
