The monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) of forest plots, especially their tree-trunk diameters, is critical to achieving both forest protection and reforestation goals. Today’s MRV processes are mostly manual, error-prone, and costly to carry out.

Everyone is welcome to attend this free online event.
We have all been in conversations where a friend, colleague or boss makes an off-handed or stereotypical comment. Such comments can be hurtful and make for a non-inclusive learning or working environment. We might let the comment slide because we want to move on and don’t want to make the speaker defensive. However, by not speaking up, we silently convey that such comments are OK with us and we help to normalize them.

We prove that for every decision tree, the absolute values of the Fourier coefficients of given order $\ell\geq1$ sum to at most $c^{\ell}\sqrt{\binom{d}{\ell}(1+\log n)^{\ell-1}},$ where $n$ is the number of variables, $d$ is the tree depth, and $c>0$ is an absolute constant. This bound is essentially tight and settles a conjecture due to Tal (arxiv 2019; FOCS 2020).

Symmetric patterns are used widely in clothing manufacture. However, the discontinuity of patterns at seams can disrupt the visual appeal of clothing. While it is possible to align patterns to conceal such pattern breaks, it is hard to create a completely seamless garment in terms of pattern continuity.
