As defined by the committee, reproducibility relates strictly to computational reproducibility—obtaining consistent results using the same input data, computational methods, and conditions of analysis ...

Reproducibility is one of the buzziest terms in science today. After all, science by its nature is not supposed to be a one-and-done affair. But a new paper in Science Translational Medicine argues ...

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 ...

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 ...

Social science, including behavioral economics, has recently come under fire as failing to generate studies with reproducible results. The Reproducibility Project made waves in August of 2015 when it ...

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 ...
