Abstract: The current linear no-threshold paradigm assumes that any exposure to ionizing radiation carries some risk, thus every effort should be made to maintain the exposures as low as possible. We examined whether background radiation impacts human… read more here.

Abstract: Influence Maximization (IM) is a fundamental problem in network science with applications in viral marketing, information dissemination, cybersecurity, and epidemiology. Classical IM solvers often trade off solution quality for runtime efficiency due to the NP-hardness… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1361-6498/ae0136
Abstract: Does ionising radiation increase the risk of cancer even at low doses? If so, what is the magnitude of risk at these low doses? This knowledge is a central component of radiation protection. In general,… read more here.
