In the last ten years, thanks to technological innovations, there has been a fundamental change in urban planning and governance. The availability of data sets, IT solutions or online dashboards has enabled cities to use them for efficient public services, thereby also improving the quality of life in cities. One of the most important approaches here is the use of open data. Open data is seen as central to enabling other services and innovations for society in addition to improving processes wit


This paper theoretically and empirically examines the role of information in the practice of pharmaceutical detailing (promotional interactions between drug representatives and physicians). We start with a theoretical framework in which pharmaceutical firms target detailing visits to physicians who potentially learn about drug quality and prescribe it to their patients. We derive several predictions about the role of information in these visits, which we then test empirically using Medicare Part


We study the model theory of vector spaces with a bilinear form over a fixed field. For finite fields this can be, and has been, done in the classical framework of full first-order logic. For infinite fields we need different logical frameworks. First we take a category-theoretic approach, which requires very little set-up. We show that linear independence forms a simple unstable independence relation. With some more work we then show that we can also work in the framework of positive logic, whi


As part of the research project called FCC-hh led by CERN, which aims to study the possibility of building a new 100 TeV center of mass energy particle collider along an 80-100 km circumference tunnel, there are many collaborations underway to test different designs for the main bending dipole of the collider.

AbstractEmpathy refers to understanding other people's feelings and seeing things from their point of view. In healthcare, it bridges the self and the other, which is crucial for an effective therapeutic relationship. Nevertheless, previous studies on the relationship between empathy and mental health have found contradictory results. This may be because they captured different aspects of a curvilinear relationship between empathy and mental health indicators (e.g., secondary traumatic stress (S


Companies as carbon emitters must show their responsibility towards the environment by reducing carbon emissions. In order to gain legitimacy, companies need to disclose their carbon emission and have good environmental performance. These two aspects are very important because they will impact investors' perceptions and the value of the firm. This paper determines the impact of the disclosure of carbon emissions and environmental performance on firm value. The sample is seven companies on the SR


Background: Vertical orbital dystopia (VOD) results in significant facial asymmetry, psychological distress, and poor quality of life in affected patients.

Optimal generation allocation is customarily applied to the DC microgrids to enable optimal operation. Conventionally, the optimization is implemented periodically to obtain the optimal bus voltage or output power references for given operating conditions, which will unavoidably deviate from the actual ones. Since slight disturbances such as load changes will trigger real-time control adjustments, hence, the overall cost will increase due to the disconnect between optimization and real-time cont

The first model uses price-dependent demand, the secon


In recent decades, liberal democracies have considerably expanded the scope for citizen participation, calling their citizens to vote in a growing number of popular votes. This research investigates the effects of the rising election frequency on electoral participation. It expands on the voting calculus and theorizes which, when, and how past votes affect current voter turnout. We argue that all election types contribute to a common factor of election frequency, whose high values depress turnou


Deep learning models operating in the complex domain are used due to their rich representation capacity. However, most of these models are either restricted to the first quadrant of the complex plane or project the complex-valued data into the real domain, causing a loss of information. This paper proposes that operating entirely in the complex domain increases the overall performance of complex-valued models. A novel, fully complex-valued learning scheme is proposed to train a Fully Complex-val

The energy and moisture exchange between the land surface and atmospheric boundary layer plays a critical role in regional climate simulations. This paper implemented a hybrid data assimilation and machine learning framework (DA-ML method) into the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model to optimize surface soil and vegetation conditions. The hybrid method can integrate remotely sensed leaf area index (LAI), multi-source soil moisture (SM) observations, and land surface models (LSMs) to acc


Adversarial examples are important to test and enhance the robustness of deep code models. As source code is discrete and has to strictly stick to complex grammar and semantics constraints, the adversarial example generation techniques in other domains are hardly applicable. Moreover, the adversarial example generation techniques specific to deep code models still suffer from unsatisfactory effectiveness due to the enormous ingredient search space. In this work, we propose a novel adversarial ex


The dataset displays the subgroups of women farmers in Maseru and Quthing based on their adaptive capacity to climate variability.

Motivation is said to be intrinsic or extrinsic. The term is generally used for huma


Abstract Metallic Zinc (Zn) is considered as a remarkably promising anode for aqueous Zn‐ion batteries due to its high volumetric capacity and low redox potential. Unfortunately, dendritic growth and severe side reactions destabilizes the electrode/electrolyte interface, and ultimately reduce the electrochemical performance. Here, an artificial protective layer (APL) with a regulated ion and electron‐conducting interphase is constructed on the Zn‐metal anode to provide excellent interfacial stab

Decentralised organisations use blockchains as a basis for governance: they use on-chain transactions to allocate voting weight, publish proposals, cast votes, and enact the results. However, blockchain-based governance structures have challenges, mostly notably, the need to align the short-term outlook of pseudononymous voters with the long-term growth and success of the decentralised organisation. The Vote-Escrowed Token (veToken) model attempts to resolve this tension by requiring voters to e

<p>Although microorganisms constitute the most diverse and abundant life form on Earth, in many environments, the vast majority of them remain uncultured. As it is based on information gleaned mainly from cultivated microorganisms, our current body of knowledge regarding microbial life is partial and does not reflect actual microbial diversity. That diversity is hidden in the uncultured microbial majority, termed by microbiologists as “microbial dark matter” (MDM), a term borrowed from ast


The usage of megaliths in cultic life of ancient people is well known in different territories. The Ural region is a mountainous territory, which is why different stone objects - mountains, rocks, caves, stones and its groups - often were the objects of worship. Megalithic objects like rocks, cliffs, boulders and groups of them, both natural and artificial, invoke special interest. Rocks of bizarre and unusual forms usually became the objects of worship. On their tops or at their foots rites and

Quantum annealing (QA) has emerged as a powerful technique to solve optimization problems by taking advantages of quantum physics. In QA process, a bottleneck that may prevent QA to scale up is minor embedding step in which we embed optimization problems represented by a graph, called logical graph, to Quantum Processing Unit (QPU) topology of quantum computers, represented by another graph, call hardware graph. Existing methods for minor embedding require a significant amount of running time in


Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have attracted tremendous attention by demonstrating their capability to handle graph data. However, they are difficult to be deployed in resource-limited devices due to model sizes and scalability constraints imposed by the multi-hop data dependency. In addition, real-world graphs usually possess complex structural information and features. Therefore, to improve the applicability of GNNs and fully encode the complicated topological information, knowledge distillatio

We collected twelve sediment cores from Metoxit Point (MP) in August 2021 and from Sage Lot Pond (SLP) in September of 2021. We collected the cores using a pull corer which maintains the vertical structure of the sediment cores and preserves the delicate sediment-water interface (Foster and Fulweiler 2019). We also collected filtered bottom water (0.2 µm) in acid-washed plastic carboys. We transported the cores back to Boston University within 7 hours of collection and placed them in an environm

To minimize the impact of various radiations on atmospheric temperature observation, a new natural ventilation temperature observation instrument is designed in this paper. First of all, the temperature measuring instrument model is constructed using the means of computational fluid dynamics. Then, the radiation error of the device is quantified in different environmental conditions. Next, a back propagation neural network algorithm is adopted to fit a radiation error modified equation with mult

The strange quark content of the proton is probed through the measurement of the production cross section for a W boson and a charm (c) quark in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The analysis uses a data sample corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. The W bosons are identified through their leptonic decays to an electron or a muon, and a neutrino. Charm jets are tagged using the presence of a muon o


<p>The larval stage of the cestode Echinococcus multilocularis is the causative agent of alveolar echinococcosis. To investigate the biology of these stages and to test novel compounds, metacestode cultures represent a suitable in vitro model system. These metacestodes are vesicles surrounded by an envelope formed by the vesicle tissue (VT), which is formed by the laminated and germinal layer, and filled with vesicle fluid (VF). We analyzed the proteome of VF and VT by liquid chromatograph


Understanding the learning process of artificial neural networks requires clarifying the structure of the parameter space within which learning takes place. A neural network parameter's functional equivalence class is the set of parameters implementing the same input--output function. For many architectures, almost all parameters have a simple and well-documented functional equivalence class. However, there is also a vanishing minority of reducible parameters, with richer functional equivalence


ABSTRACT This text exposes the paths of methodological construction and theoretical foundation of comparative writing, on the one hand, closer to the broader sense of language, that is, the author and the critical reader in the sense of the discourses; on the other, oriented by comparison, in the methodological sense.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the most prevalent form of dementia worldwide, affects a growing proportion of the elderly and poses a significant societal burden. Pathological hallmarks include the appearance of misfolded proteins in the brain. This is evidenced by the deposition of amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques and tau-containing neurofibrillary tangles leading to neuron loss.<br/>Advanced age is the single most important factor that leads to the dementia associated with AD. Additionally, genetic fac


In this work, we present an end-to-end framework for camera-based 3D multi-object tracking, called DQTrack. To avoid heuristic design in detection-based trackers, recent query-based approaches deal with identity-agnostic detection and identity-aware tracking in a single embedding. However, it brings inferior performance because of the inherent representation conflict. To address this issue, we decouple the single embedding into separated queries, i.e., object query and track query. Unlike previo


Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder and the multifaceted nature of it requires innovative approaches that integrate various data modalities to enhance its detection. However, due to the cost of collecting multimodal data, multimodal datasets suffer from an insufficient number of samples. To mitigate the impact of a limited sample size on classification, we introduce a novel deep learning method (One2MFusion) which combines gene expression data with their correspondin

Abstract This study compared the accuracy of traditional endodontic access to conservative access cavities prepared with or without novel nonrestrictive endodontic access guides by operators with different levels of clinical experience without visual aids, using a three‐dimensional volumetric accuracy analysis method. The accuracy of the preparations was analysed using a novel 3D volumetric analysis by calculating the intersection and volume of the actual cavities to the planned model cavities.


Although XML has been used in software applications for a considerable amount of time, managing XML files is not a common skill in the realm of backend software design. This is primarily because JSON has become a more prevalent file format and is supported by numerous SQL and NoSQL databases. In this thesis, we will delve into the fundamentals and implementation of a web application that utilizes a hybrid database, with the goal of determining whether it is suitable for managing XML resources.Up


The aim of this experiment is to explore the impact of inclusive language compared to masculine language in Arabic on applicants with different genders. Arabic is a grammatically gendered language that does not possess a neuter grammatical form, but instead possesses two gender distinctions: masculine and feminine. Historically and presently, Arabic relies on the use of the masculine form as the default. Specifically, the masculine form is often used to refer to someone with unspecified gender (


Autotaxin (ATX/ENPP2) is a secreted phospholipase D enzyme that converts lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) into lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). LPA is the agonist for at least six G protein coupled receptors whose activation stimulates cell proliferation, survival and migration. Overexpression of ATX and increased levels of LPA have been linked to fibrotic and inflammatory diseases and to several cancers. ATX is a therapeutic target and the ATX inhibitor IOA-289 is currently in Phase 1B clinical trials


To improve the accuracy of subject-level activation detections in noisy fMRI data, models to optimize voxel-wise smoothness levels for both isotropic Gaussian filter and spatially adaptive steerable filters are proposed. The smoothing step with currently optimized FWHM is incorporated into the optimization algorithm and solved efficiently using a sequential quadratic programming solver. Results from both simulated data and real episodic memory data indicate that a higher detection sensitivity fo


Spectre attack exploits the vulnerability in speculative execution, an optimization technique for modern superscalar processors. Among the attack variants, Spectre-BTB and Spectre-RSB are the most threatening because they allow adversaries to execute arbitrary code in the transient execution context. However, there are few mitigation techniques for these Spectre variants due to the high degree of implementation difficulty. In this paper, we propose MicroCFI, a hardware/software co-design approac

Laws of motion given in terms of differential equations can not always be derived from an action principle, at least not without introducing auxiliary variables. By allowing auxiliary variables, e.g. in the form of Lagrange multipliers, an action is immediately obtained. Here, we consider some ways how this can be done, drawing examples from the literature, and apply this to Bohmian mechanics. We also discuss the possible metaphysical status of these auxiliary variables. A particularly interesti

Representation learning is essential to practical success of reinforcement learning. Through a state representation, an agent can describe its environment to efficiently explore the state space, generalize to new states and perform credit assignment from delayed feedback. These representations may be state abstractions, hand-engineered or fixed features or implied by a neural network. In this thesis, we investigate several desirable theoretical properties of state representations and, using this

As most, albeit not all, endangered and minoritised languages lack a written tradition, the creation of pedagogical and literacy materials is necessarily preceded by the adaptation or development from scratch of an orthography.

Attitudes can be addressed if appropriate conditions occur. Blanga (Solomon Islands

This chapter draws on what I call map thinking – philosophical reflection on mapping and map use – to shed light on representational processes in the life sciences. In particular, it relies on the analogy between mapping and representation or knowledge in general. I first identify three map analogies, which I call literal, causal, and extreme-scale. I then show how these analogies help us to understand three cases, not previously analysed in this light: the evolution of Darwin’s finches accordin

Although rarely reported on the skin, cutaneous verrucous carcinomas (CVC) can appear anywhere, most commonly on the feet. However, clinical and pathologic diagnosis of CVC has been confusing and challenging. It can easily be mistaken for benign or more malignant conditions such as giant condyloma acumina


Identifying the difference between two versions of the same article is useful to update knowledge bases and to understand how articles evolve. Paired texts occur naturally in diverse situations: reporters write similar news stories and maintainers of authoritative websites must keep their information up to date. We propose representing factual changes between paired documents as question-answer pairs, where the answer to the same question differs between two versions. We find that question-answe


The exact determination of the sojourn point of the individual "Self"' is for science, as however, for the destiny of mankind, truly invaluable significance. Indeed, from the very localization, one can, accordingly, go straight to the features of its functioning; and this, in turn, should certainly help in solving the global pan-philosophical problems of life and death, associated with the eternal, but so far unsuccessful search for the meaning of our earthly existence. In addition, as all know,


Motivated by fairness requirements in communication networks, we introduce a natural variant of the online paging problem, called min-max paging, where the objective is to minimize the maximum number of faults on any page. While the classical paging problem, whose objective is to minimize the total number of faults, admits k-competitive deterministic and O(log k)-competitive randomized algorithms, we show that min-max paging does not admit a c(k)-competitive algorithm for any function c.

Abstract Transdisciplinary sustainability scientists are called to conduct research with community actors to understand and improve relations between people and nature. Yet, research hierarchies and power relations continue to favour western academic researchers who remain the gatekeepers of knowledge production and validation. To counter this imbalance, in 2018 we structured a multi‐day workshop to co‐design a set of principles to guide our own transdisciplinary, international and intercultural


Foreign body (FB) ingestion is common among children. It is alarming when it is a magnetic foreign body as it can cause interloop attraction resulting in perforation, fistulas and or volvulus. This case report presented 2 cases of magnetic FB ingestion by children. The first child had a history of FB ingestion and presented with signs and symptoms of intestinal obstruction. The parents of the second child gave no history of FB ingestion which might have caused the delay in diagnosis and treatmen


Drug delivery via the oral mucous membrane is considered to be a promising alternative to the oral route. Sublingual route is a rapid onset of action and better patient compliance than orally ingested tablets. Sublingual literally meaning is “under the tongue”, administrating substance via mouth in such a way that the substance is rapidly absorbed via blood vessels under tongue. The portion of drug absorbed through the sublingual blood vessels bypasses the hepatic first‐pass metabolic processes


The karst depression with a natural negative landform is favorable for reservoir construction with less excavation work. The underground air-water pressure would be complicated after the construction of a reservoir that blocks the natural air-water channel (sinkhole, karst channel, etc.). To develop a monitoring system for the reservoir, a large-scale laboratory simulation test was carried out to study the air-pressure evolution and water migration process during water table fluctuation after th


All the 159 indica rice accessions were planted, with a randomized complete block design, in Wuhan in 2021. This experiment was replicated two times in different fields, namely environments 1 and 2. Each material was planted in one plot with 10 seedlings, row spacing was 16.7 cm × 20 cm, and one line empty between cells. At yellow ripening stage, grain width (GW) (mm), grain length (GL) (mm), and thousand grain weight (TGW) (g) for each accession in mian crop (MC) and ratoon rice (RR) were measu


Accessibility in visualization is an important yet challenging topic. Sonification, in particular, is a valuable yet underutilized technique that can enhance accessibility for people with low vision. However, the lower bandwidth of the auditory channel makes it difficult to fully convey dense visualizations. For this reason, interactivity is key in making full use of its potential. In this paper, we present a novel approach for the sonification of dense line charts. We utilize the metaphor of a


Abstract In this paper, we introduce a novel direct maximum power point tracking (MPPT) approach that combines the backstepping controller (BSC) and the super-twisting algorithm (STA). The direct backstepping super-twisting algorithm control (BSSTAC) MPPT was developed to extract the maximum power point (MPP) produced by a photovoltaic (PV) generator connected to the battery through a boost DC-DC converter. To reduce the number of sensors required for the BSSTAC implementation, a high gain obser

Abstract Copper zinc tin sulfide (CZTS) thin films have been deposited by spin coating technique at various copper concentration ranging from 0.5M to 2.5M. The XRD patterns show the existence of the three main characteristic peaks of CZTS (112), (220) and (312), which indicate the formation of the kesterite structure of CZTS. Gap energy was calculated based on the derivation method using the absorbance data, and the values obtained vary from 1.46 eV to 1.58 eV depending on the copper molarities.


Coconut palms are one of the most significant crops in tropical countries, supplying food and a living for millions. Coconut trees, on the other hand, are subject to a variety of diseases that can severely diminish yield and even cause mortality. Deep learning approaches have yielded promising achievements in the field of picture recognition and classification in recent years. In this study, a deep learning-based approach is proposed for identifying coconut tree diseases. Based on photographs of


Abstract Background A diaphragmatic hernia is a prolapse of the abdominal organs into the thoracic cavity through a hole in the diaphragm. Traumatic diaphragmatic injuries are rare and usually occur after blunt or penetrating thoracic or abdominal traumas. Blunt diaphragmatic rupture rarely accounts for immediate mortality and may go clinically silent until complications occur which can be life threatening. It usually present late with intrathoracic herniation of abdominal viscera and carry a hi

A study of the ichthyoplankton in the Gulf of Tunis was performed in 6 stations from November 1981 until December 1982. The purpose of this study is to know the egg-laying season of certain teleostean fish in this region. The ten-thousand eggs were attributed to 24 species. From the quantitative point of view, the species: Engraulis encrasicholis, Mullus barbatus, Arnoglossus sp., Callionymus festivus, Coris julis and Diplodus sp. were the most dominant. As a consequence, the Gulf of Tunis must


Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and follicular thyroid carcinoma are common subtypes of thyroid cancer, while hyalinizing trabecular tumor (HHT) of the thyroid is a rare peculiar type of follicular cell neoplasm. Although all three tumor types originate from thyroid follicular cells, the frequency of their co-presence in the same thyroid gland is unknown. Herein, we describe an extremely rare case with three types of concurrent thyroid neoplasms in one patient. This patient was a 60-year-old f


Birds perform some of the most elaborate intersexual displays in the animal kingdom, but while these are typically associated with the pre-copulation stage of sexual interactions, the males of some species also display following copulation. Here we report that immediately after dismounting from females, male Superb Lyrebirds Menura novaehollandiae perform a striking multimodal display comprising a repetitive clicking vocalization and a stereotyped tail posture, while walking backwards away from


Intrinsic or acquired resistance to chemical drugs severely limits their therapeutic efficacy in cancer treatment. Various intracellular antioxidant molecules, particularly glutathione (GSH), play a crucial role in maintaining intracellular redox homeostasis by mitigating the overproduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) due to rapid cell proliferation. Notably, these antioxidants also eliminate chemical-drug-induced ROS, eventually diminishing their cytotoxicity and rendering them less effective.


The issue of following an imam from a different school of thought in prayer has been a topic of discussion since the early periods. The differences in the evidence relied upon regarding ablution and prayer have been a significant factor in the approaches of various schools of thought on this matter. Particularly, the differing understandings of what invalidates ablution have played an important role in the emergence of debates concerning the permissibility of following an imam from a different s

Perceptual difficulty with an unfamiliar accent can dissipate within short time scales (e.g., within minutes), reflecting rapid adaptation effects. At the same time, long-term familiarity with an accent is also known to yield stable perceptual benefits. However, whether the long-term effects reflect sustained, cumulative progression from shorter-term adaptation remains unknown. To fill this gap, we developed a web-based, repeated exposure-test paradigm. In this paradigm, short test blocks altern

The study uses the optimization with constraint learning (OCL) framework, incorporating patient-specific factors into the optimization process. It con


Abstract Atherosclerosis is one of the important diseases of the circulatory system because atherosclerotic plaques cause significant disruption of blood flow. Therefore, it is very important to properly understand these processes and skillfully simulate blood flow. In our work, we consider blood flow through an abdominal aorta with iliac arteries, assuming that the right iliac artery is narrowed by an atherosclerotic lesion. Blood flow is simulated using the laminar, standard $$k-\omega$$ <mml:


Aedes albopictus , also known as the Asian tiger mosquito, is indigenous to the tropical forests of Southeast Asia.

Traditional post-stroke rehabilitation primarily targeted the affected side of the body. However, recent approaches emphasized the advantages of incorporating bimanual training into the rehabilitation process. In this study, the potential impacts of bimanual rotation training on neuroplasticity during motor imagery tasks, which included right-hand, left-hand, and both-hands tasks, were investigated with healthy participants. Neuroplasticity was assessed by analyzing brain effective connectivity


Non-fatal strangulation poses a significant concern in clinical forensic medicine. Indeed, surviving victims often present a diverse array of signs and symptoms. In rare instances, acute pathological events that manifest with symptoms similar to those secondary to neck compression (e.g., stroke with subsequent neurological symptoms, etc.) can lead to loss of consciousness, inadvertently resulting in strangulation. Therefore, in this context, forensic investigation plays a crucial role in interpr


Background Early interventions for young children with autism have been shown to enhance developmental outcomes. However, opportunities for targeted interventions in autism, both in care and preschool, are often lacking, particularly in immigrant communities. The early start denver model (ESDM) stands as one of the most well-established intervention models, including improvement in core developmental domains and reduction of maladaptive behaviours, also delivered in preschool settings.
