Selecting Mathematical Models With Greatest Predictive Power: Finding Occam’s Razor in an Era of Information Overload

 How can the actions and reactions of proteins so small or stars so distant they are invisible to the human eye be accurately predicted? How can blurry images be brought into focus and reconstructed? A new study led by physicist Steve Pressé, Ph.D., of the School of Science at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, shows that
