Powdery mildew is a devasting disease for both common wheat and durum wheat. Here, the authors report the powdery mildew resistance locus derived from wild emmer wheat is conferred by the combined ...

When aridity levels exceed a threshold, dryland vegetation productivity decreases dramatically. A new global study shows that high levels of protection within conservation areas enhance the capacity ...

Abstract: Classification tasks on ultra-lightweight devices demand devices that are resource-constrained and deliver swift responses. Binary Vector Symbolic Architecture (VSA) is a promising approach ...

Abstract: Bent functions are defined as Boolean functions at the largest distance from affine functions, making them useful in various cryptographic applications. The same definition is also used for ...

A common pattern is to load an integer and then AND with a constant to test a particular flag, e.g. foo->bar & SOME_FLAG. Suppose that bar is 32-bit, and SOME_FLAG is 0x200. Clang has an optimization ...

In neural information processing, the nervous system transmits neuronal activity between layers of neural circuits, occasionally passing through small layers composed only of sparse neurons.
