Uncertainty principles and signal recovery

TL;DR: In this article, the uncertainty principle can be generalized to cases where the sets of concentration are not intervals, and generalizations explain interesting phenomena in signal recovery problems where there is an interplay of missing data, sparsity, and bandlimiting.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simple prediction of interaction strengths in complex food webs.

TL;DR: It is found that the interaction strength between a pair of species is predicted well by simple functions of the two species' biomasses and the body mass of the species removed, and prediction accuracy increases with network size, suggesting that greater web complexity simplifies predicting interaction strengths.

TL;DR: This paper showed that student evaluations of teaching (SET) are biased against female instructors by an amount that is large and statistically significant the bias affects how students rate even putatively objective aspects of teaching, such as how promptly assignments are graded.
