Historically, accessing supercomputers has been rather tedious and often required substantial technical knowledge, limiting their user base to a small group of highly skilled individuals. However, as demand for computation grows, more scientific users are seeking access to these resources. [...]

This study investigates four feature selection methods ($χ^2$, ANOVA F-test, Lasso, and a Tree-based method) to enhance Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) classification in time-series intensive care unit data using an existing Random Forest algorithm. While feature selection did not significantly improve ARDS classification performance, using a reduced number of features achieved comparable results to using the entire dataset. [...]

Graph representation is a powerful abstraction of real-world objects and relations. Computing the Graph Edit Distance (GED) between graphs is critical in domains such as bioinformatics, machine learning, and pattern recognition [...]

Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) is a promising technology for securing critical power-system communications, but its use for real-time synchrophasor traffic has seen limited experimental validation. This paper presents a laboratory experimental implementation of QKD-based protection for realtime IEEE C37.118 synchrophasor data. [...]

We propose an improved Fourier Neural Operator (FNO) for modeling two-dimensional Rayleigh-Bénard convection by predicting time increments instead of full solutions, achieving higher accuracy than a standard FNO baseline. The resulting model is compact (314k parameters, 1.26 MB) and fast (7 ms inference), while maintaining similar accuracy as demonstrated in previous benchmarks. [...]

The PREFER (Polarization REsearch for Fusion Experiments and Reactors) collaboration aimsto address the know-hows in different fields and techniques to the challenging bet on energyproduction by nuclear fusion with polarized fuel. The collaboration involves different institutionsand researchers, sharing skills and peculiar abilities, having then possibilities to span over a varietyof tasks and objectives, which are under the responsibility of the authors of this contribution,leading their groups.

Nuclear spin polarization has important applications across various fields, including physics andmedicine. It also offers several advantages, such as cross-section enhancement, in the five-nucleonfusion reactions, namely the D–T and D–$^3$He reactions. [...]
