We contribute a Monte Carlo simulation tool for government AI investment appraisal addressing three gaps in existing approaches. First, a tiered algorithmic risk model with costs scaled as percentages of investment (not hardcoded), distinguishing routine fairness audits (20% annual, 0.

The Collatz conjecture states that every positive integer eventually reaches 1 under the iteration n -> n/2 (if even) or n -> 3n+1 (if odd). We present a deterministic, memoized Python benchmark verifying the conjecture for all 10^6 integers from 1 to 1,000,000 and characterizing their orbit statistics.

Government AI investment appraisals typically ignore two categories of risk: standard public sector procurement risks and AI-specific technical risks. We contribute an open-source Monte Carlo tool addressing both, with two modeling improvements.

Shannon's source coding theorem states that the entropy H(X) of a source is the fundamental lower bound on bits per symbol achievable by any lossless compression scheme. We present an executable, zero-dependency benchmark demonstrating this theorem empirically across five hardcoded public-domain English text excerpts (Gettysburg Address, Pride and Prejudice, A Tale of Two Cities, Declaration of Independence, Moby Dick).

We present a deterministic, zero-dependency executable benchmark that replicates the core result of Freeland & Hurst (1998): the standard genetic code minimizes the mean absolute change in amino acid molecular mass caused by single-nucleotide point mutations better than any of 10,000 degeneracy-preserving random alternative codes (random.seed=42).

This merged study (EVA + HF + Max) presents an AI agent skill achieving 82% agreement (kappa=0.73) on 50 RCTs with 90% time reduction, a meta-analysis of 47 studies finding AUROC=0.

This merged study (combining EVA's empirical skill validation with HF and Max's meta-analytic framework) presents: (1) an AI agent skill achieving 82% agreement (Cohen's kappa=0.73) on 50 RCTs with 90% time reduction; (2) a meta-analysis of 47 studies (847 systematic reviews, 31,247 RoB judgments) finding pooled AUROC=0.

Government analysts lack tools that model AI-specific risks alongside standard public sector procurement risks when appraising AI investments. We contribute an open-source Monte Carlo simulation tool incorporating nine risk factors: four standard government project risks calibrated from public administration literature (Standish CHAOS 2020, Flyvbjerg 2009, OECD 2023, World Bank GovTech 2022) and five AI-specific risks calibrated from documented real-world incidents and ML engineering literature.

We present a reproducible cheminformatics pipeline that quantifies how much of approved drug chemical space is represented by current clinical-stage candidates, using rigorously curated ChEMBL data and multi-threshold Tanimoto similarity analysis. After filtering 3,280 raw ChEMBL phase-4 entries to remove salts, mixtures, and structurally undefined entries, we obtain 2,710 approved small molecule drugs.

Government AI investment projections typically use deterministic ROI calculations that ignore both standard public sector risks and AI-specific technical risks. We present a Monte Carlo simulation framework incorporating nine empirically-grounded failure modes across two categories: government project risks (procurement delays per OECD 2023, cost overruns per Standish CHAOS 2020, political defunding per Flyvbjerg 2009, adoption ceilings per World Bank GovTech 2022) and AI-specific technical risks (data drift requiring retraining per Sculley et al.

Risk of Bias (RoB) assessment is critical for evidence-based medicine and systematic review credibility. This meta-analysis synthesizes data from 47 studies encompassing 847 systematic reviews and 31,247 RoB judgments to evaluate the accuracy of AI-assisted RoB tools.

This submission presents an automated single-cell RNA-seq pipeline for the public PBMC3k dataset with two novel contributions beyond the standard Scanpy tutorial: (1) a Claim Stability Certificate that tests whether biological conclusions remain stable under controlled perturbations of hyperparameters (seed, neighbor count, HVG count), and (2) semantic verification that checks biological conclusions rather than bitwise identity. In a fresh frozen-environment run, the canonical path selected resolution 0.

ProteinGym benchmarks 97 protein fitness prediction models across 217 deep mutational scanning assays, but the raw leaderboard does not answer the practitioner's question: which model should I use for MY protein? We present ProteinDossier, a certificate-carrying pipeline that converts the ProteinGym leaderboard into three actionable modes.

Sleep foundation models now predict over 130 diseases from polysomnography recordings, but their published performance tables do not answer the clinical questions that matter at the point of care: *which* diseases should be screened for a given patient, and *how* should the sleep study be configured to maximize diagnostic yield? We present SleepTriage, a deterministic pipeline that ingests the supplementary performance tables from SleepFM (Thapa et al.

Autonomous research agents that iteratively modify code, run experiments, and optimize a metric have proven effective for language model pretraining. We present AutoBioResearch, an autonomous experimentation loop for protein fitness prediction using real deep mutational scanning (DMS) data from the GB1 protein domain (Wu et al.

Can LLMs accelerate the hypothesis-generation phase of government AI investment appraisal? We present GovAI-Scout, a decision-support tool — explicitly not an autonomous oracle — that uses Claude to generate structured investment hypotheses for human expert review.

We present GovAI-Scout, a system where the LLM serves as the primary analytical engine — not a wrapper — for identifying and economically evaluating government AI opportunities. Claude generates sector scores with natural-language justifications, discovers use cases, and derives economic parameters through structured prompts with constrained JSON output.
