Fixed vs. random effects in panel data Broadly speaking, the distinction between a fixed effects approach and a random effects approach concerns the correlation — or lack thereof — between unobserved ...

Researchers demonstrate random-number generation by exploiting the intrinsic randomness of vacuum states. The approach may lead to reliable and high-speed quantum random-number generators for ...

A new random number generator that uses a micro laser developed by researchers at NTU Singapore is a hundred times faster than computer-based systems.

We’ve featured other projects using radioactive decay for random number generation before, though they weren’t quite as philosophically intriguing as the DeDeterminator.

Hardware Scientists have created a random number generator that's truly random—and no, that's not an easy thing to do at all News By Jess Kinghorn published April 16, 2025 ...

That means that even if some enemy understands everything about how the random number generator works, they still can’t predict the outcome.

Admittedly, the SB42 Random Number Generator built by [Simon Boak] isn’t exactly something you’d be using for cryptography.

Researchers have built the fastest random-number generator ever made, using a simple laser. It exploits fluctuations in the intensity of light to generate randomness—a coveted resource in ...
