Adding numbers to your passwords makes them more secure. In fact, most sites and services these days require alphanumeric passwords at the very least. Some people ...

We investigate how current noisy quantum computers can be leveraged for generating secure random numbers certified by Quantum Mechanics. While random numbers can be generated and certified in a device ...

Abstract: True Random Number Generator (TRNG) is an essential primitive for extracting random bits from a random entropy source. A robust and reliable TRNG design provides non-deterministic nonces for ...

After distributing test kits to 60 randomly selected households in mid-June as part of a project aiming to replace all lead water lines, Blue Island officials say the results found no immediate ...

Abstract: In this paper, we introduce a classical algorithm for random sampling of permutations, drawing inspiration from the Steinhaus-Johnson-Trotter algorithm. Our approach takes a comprehensive ...

The adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in U.S. classrooms has accelerated rapidly over the past year, with double-digit growth in the number of students using AI tools for schoolwork, according ...

If you’ve been to Random Sample to see an art exhibition, or watch a live band, or even participate in a book club, you know just where to find its original home. It’s a white cinderblock building ...

This important study shows a surprising scale-invariance of the covariance spectrum of large-scale recordings in the zebrafish brain in vivo. A convincing analysis demonstrates that a Euclidean random ...
