Presented in this volume are the Invited Lectures and Contributed Papers of Tenth International Workshop on Decoherence, Information, Complexity Entropy – DICE 2022 “Quantum riddles spacetime oddities” held at Castello Pasquini, Castiglioncello (Tuscany), September 19-23, . These proceedings document lively exchange ideas during conference for interested public scientific community alike. For f...

In this paper we present a new approach for embedding integrity constraints into object-oriented database systems (ODBMS), which can not be speciied implicitly by the structure or explicitly by key words of the system. For the design of an object-oriented schemas a variety of existing techniques can be used, which are mainly based on conceptual design using a semantic database model. The transf...

Most of Knowledge Discovery in Database (KDD) systems are integrating efficient Machine Learning techniques. In fact issues in Machine Learning and KDD are very close allowing for a natural straightforward integration. However, there are specific problems related to KDD that require a specific approach to machine learning techniques integration. Overabundance of patterns and complexity of the d...

Yahtzee is a well-known game played with five dice. Players take turns at assembling and scoring dice patterns. The player with the highest score wins. Solitaire Yahtzee is a single-player version of Yahtzee aimed at maximizing one’s score. A strategy for playing Yahtzee determines which choice to make in each situation of the game. We show that the maximum expected score over all Solitaire Yah...

Introduction If you toss two fair six-sided dice, you will get a number between 2 and 12. Although each die is fair, the sum is not: the probability of getting a 2 is 1 36 , while the probability of a 7 is 16 . Thus the question arises: Can unfair (or loaded) dice lead to a fair sum? The answer is no, as was shown by Honsberger [4], using elementary methods. A proof using generating functions i...

We report a computation of the exact output rate of recently-discovered generalization of Peres algorithm for generating random bits from loaded dice. Instead of resorting to brute-force computation for all possible inputs, which becomes quickly impractical as the input size increases, we compute the total output length on equiprobable sets of inputs by dynamic programming using a recursive for...

The Liar’s dice is a dice game where deception and the ability to detect the opponents’ deception play a crucial role. We analyze this game from different perspectives. First, two-player endgames are analyzed and optimal strategies are calculated. Second, using simulation methods, we examine heuristic playing strategies based on their success against each other. In the simulations, we consider ...

Background Quantitative analysis can improve myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) for prediction of prognosis. We have designed a novel approach, Decisions Informed by Computed Entities (DICE), to enhance the prognostic ability of MPI data to predict major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in women with suspected ischemic heart disease. We applied DICE to cardiovascular magnetic resonance imag...

Gambling studies should take a broad view of the field and consider activities that are not strictly gambling but similar to it, such as cleromancy and secular uses of drawing of lots, to give us perspective on societal and cultural aspects of gambling. This paper presents historical data on judicial uses of throwing dice in eighteenth and nineteenth-century Sweden. The focus is on cases of man...
