The paper tackles the unsupervised estimation of the effective dimension of a sample of dependent random vectors. The proposed method uses the principal components (PC) decomposition of sample covariance to establish a low-rank approximation that helps uncover the hidden structure. The number of PCs to be included in the decomposition is determined via a Probabilistic Principal Components Analy...

We introduce a new scheme for continuous-variable entanglement distillation that requires only linear temporal and constant physical or spatial resources. Distillation is the process by which high-quality entanglement may be distributed between distant nodes of a network in the unavoidable presence of decoherence. The known versions of this protocol scale exponentially in space and doubly expon...

Jamaican agro-industries generate large quantities of wastes, which are either discarded or under-utilized. In order to evaluate the possible utilization of these wastes, it is necessary that the profiles of the major biochemical groups be developed. This paper describes the determination of the amino acid composition of coffee, citrus, and rum distillery wastes using a reversed-phase high-perf...

This review article is based on scientific and popular science publications as well articles from branch magazines that refer to the production of alcohol in Poland traditional grain raw materials. New trends broadly understood alcoholic beverages point a return materials methods, preferably carried out small, distillery – crafted beers, local wines or spirits. Consumers desire tradition, howev...
