Nested sampling (NS) computes parameter posterior distributions and makes Bayesian model comparison computationally feasible. Its strengths are the unsupervised navigation of complex, potentially multi-modal posteriors until a well-defined termination point. A systematic literature review nested algorithms variants is presented. We focus on complete algorithms, including solutions to likelihood...

background and purpose: pneumocystis pneumonia, caused by pneumocystis jirovecii, is a fatal disease threatening patients with aids or immunosuppression. assessment of colonization in these patients is of great significance, since it can lead to severe pulmonary disorders. considering the scarcity of published reports on pneumocystis jirovecii isolates from patients in mashhad, iran, we aimed t...

In this work we address contributions from scalars to (g − 2)μ. In order to explain the recently measured deviation by the BNL experiment on (g−2)μ, it is necessary that these scalars are either light or couple strongly with muons. Here we explore this last possibility. We show that a scalar with mass of order 10 GeV provides significant contribution to (g − 2)μ if the Yukawa coupling is about ...

We implement an alternative loop unwinding strategy for ESBMC at the GOTO level. This substantially improves the reliability of unwinding nested loops.

The parallel ordering of large graphs is a difficult problem, because neither minimumdegree algorithms, nor the best graph partitioning methods that are necessary to nested dissection, parallelize or scale well. This paper presents a set of algorithms, implemented in the PT-Scotch software package, which allows one to order large graphs in parallel, yielding orderings the quality of which is eq...

Here we summarize the results of the investigation of the IJ = 00 wave [1-3]: this investigation is devoted to the search for the lightest scalar glueball. In Refs. [1, 2], the q q-nonet classi cation of the scalar/isoscalar states is performed in the mass region below 1900 MeV basing on the following data: GAMS data for p! 0 n [4], n [5], n [6]; CERN-M unich data for p! + n [7]; Crystal Barre...
