Single particle cryo-electron microscopy is currently poised to produce high-resolution structures of many biological assemblies, but several pitfalls can trap the unwary. This critique highlights one problem that is particularly relevant when smaller structures are being studied. It is known as "Einstein from noise," in which the experimenter honestly believes they have recorded images of thei...

Until now no distributed discrete-logarithm key generation (DKG) protocol is known to be universally composable. We extend Feldman’s verifiable secret sharing scheme to construct such a protocol. Our result holds for static adversaries corrupting a minority of the parties under the Decision Diffie-Hellman assumption in a weak common random string model in which the simulator does not choose the...

Suppose Alice wants to perform some computation that could be done quickly on a quantum computer, but she cannot do universal quantum computation. Bob can do universal quantum computation and claims he is willing to help, but Alice wants to be sure that Bob cannot learn her input, the result of her calculation, or perhaps even the function she is trying to compute. We describe a simple, efficie...

We conduct an artefactual field experiment using a diversified sample of passengers of public transportations to study attitudes towards dishonesty. We find that the diversity of behavior in terms of dis/honesty in laboratory tasks and in the field correlate. Moreover, individuals who have just been fined in the field behave more honestly in the lab than the other fare-dodgers, except when cont...

We let participants indicate their intended action in a repeated game experiment where actions are implemented with errors. Even though communication is cheap talk, we find that the majority of participants communicate honestly. As a result, communication has a positive effect on cooperation when the payoff matrix makes the returns to cooperation high; when the payoff matrix gives a lower retur...

This is the scientific report for the paper entitled “Yet Another Compiler for Active Security or: Efficient MPC Over Arbitrary Rings”. This research produces a powerful idea for transforming any semi-honestly secure multiparty computation (MPC) into an actively secure protocol while taking into consideration reducing the threshold of tolerance corruption for real parties by semi-honest adversa...

A philosopher and a cognitive neuroscientist conversed with Buddhist lama Tilmann Lhündrup Borghardt (TLB) about the unresolved phenomenological concerns logical questions surrounding “pure” consciousness or minimal phenomenal experience (MPE), quasi-contentless, non-dual state whose phenomenology of “emptiness” is often described in terms quality luminosity that experienced meditators have rep...

Abstract Across the world, COVID-19 pandemic has seen label of “hero” assigned to an expanded range unexpected figures, from carers supermarket delivery drivers, lauded for their selflessness. In Britain, however, none received levels public veneration experienced by late Captain Sir Tom Moore, who became famous completing a sponsored walk his garden 100th birthday, raising £38.9 million Nation...

To cite: Quilliam S. J Fam Plann Reprod Health Care 2014;40:66–68. BACKGROUND I admit it. I’ve personally often used pharmacies as good sources of information, support and product. So it’s with more than professional interest that I’m undertaking my latest Journal commission: to explore the role of pharmacists in the field of sexual and reproductive health care (SRH). This exploration has been ...

Researchers believe everyone wants to carry out religious teachings that are adhered in the workplace, one of which is act honestly. From an organizational point view, big data analytics used suppress fraud still occurs frequently, so this study aims determine effect religion workplace and on detection. The research was conducted at Shariah People’s Credit Bank located Banten Province, with a s...
