For More Realistic Evacuation Experiments, Add Physiological Stress

Sachit Butail and collaborators used information theory to analyze the effect of stress on the dynamics of pedestrian evacuations.

Computational Topology to Find Exoplanet Signatures in Astronomical Images

Elizabeth Bradley and collaborators use persistent homology to characterize circumstellar disks and find exoplanets in them.

Exploring the Dynamics of Viral Spread: Insights From DS25

Burcu Gürbüz gains insights on viral spread from bifurcation analysis of models incorporating indirect transmission via an environmental viral reservoir.

Collective Locust Swarms from Individual Interactions

Jasper Weinburd and team perform large-scale simulations of data-driven models of locust swarms to infer what type of individual interactions within the swarm produce the collective alignment behavior observed in experiments.
