Are we alone? Discovering Earth-like exoplanets with Conformal Prediction (available)

Billions of exoplanets are orbiting around their stars outside our solar system [1]. But are they similar enough to our Earth so that life may have developed there? Often you can answer this question if you know the planet’s mass, radius, and orbiting period. Given the astronomic distances between us and the planets, however, you … full description “Are we alone? Discovering Earth-like exoplanets with Conformal Prediction (available)”

Quantum computing without quantum computers (available)

Quantum Technologies (QT) may revolutionise data science but are often unreliable. Classical and quantum noise makes most of the existing systems highly unstable. This generalised unreliability has limited their applicability to real-world computational problems. In special cases, quantum systems can be simulated on classical computers. As classical simulations are noise-free, they can be used to … full description “Quantum computing without quantum computers (available)”
