Science isn’t facing a reproducibility catastrophe, but the scientific community could take important steps to improve reporting and replicability, according to a new report from the US National ...

A recent study provides evidence that some results of behavioral experiments with insects cannot be fully reproduced. So far, possible reproducibility problems have been little discussed in this ...

Independent verification of data is a cornerstone of scientific research. The scientific method relies on reproducibility to validate findings and build upon existing work. Ideally, researchers should ...

As the result of a mandate from Congress, the National Academies will explore the issues of reproducibility and replication in scientific and engineering research. The committee will explore what is ...

Over the last few centuries, the scientific method has established itself as a pretty useful tool. A key facet of scientific methodology is reproducibility. Essentially, good science should be easily ...

Reproducible scientific results are not always true and true scientific results are not always reproducible, according to a mathematical model. Reproducible scientific results are not always true and ...

A few years ago, Joelle Pineau, a computer science professor at McGill, was helping her students design a new algorithm when they fell into a rut. Her lab studies reinforcement learning, a type of ...
