Solving the modern marriage puzzle : the problems of creating value in marriage by Ang, Claudia Hui Lin

“…This paper argues that marriage should be disestablished, or at the very least, reformed. Marriage lacks intrinsic value, and if socioeconomic purposes that necessitated marriage in the past are no longer valid now, then there remains no good justification for marriage. …”

Classification and reconstruction of communication signals based on convolutional neural network by Cai, Zhenmin

“…Another experiment was done to classify 8PSK and QPSK and correct rate of this system reached 95% as well. Last but not least, we used convolutional sparse coding to reconstruct signals with the dictionary learnt by CNN model. …”

Writers' libraries and vestigial notes as cultural heritage: minding the gaps in the material record by Van Hulle, D

“…In English literature, keeping one's manuscripts is a relatively recent phenomenon, compared to for instance the Italian tradition, which has holograph sources that go back at least to the fourteenth century. Using examples mainly from Samuel Beckett and James Joyce, this chapter will zoom in on writers' libraries and reading notes to trace creativity in literature. …”

The battle for Asia in crude oil markets: an easier road ahead for India? by Sen, A

“…Even though the drop in prices is unlikely to last (given the high cost on the supply side) and prices are likely to pick back up to at least the US$80–100 per barrel range in the coming years, India will remain in a privileged position compared to a few years ago, as the continued growth of US tight oil means producers from all around the world will still focus on Asia to sell their crude. …”

Reconstruction from smaller cards by Groenland, C, Johnston, T, Scott, A, Tan, J

“…In 1957, Kelly showed that every tree with $n\ge3$ vertices can be reconstructed from its $(n-1)$-deck, and Giles strengthened this in 1976, proving that trees on at least 6 vertices can be reconstructed from their $(n-2)$-decks. …”

The method of levels of abstraction in pluralism and governance of dialogical interaction by Rainey, S

“…Dialogue in the governance of contentious issues is at least partly a response to the recognition of pluralism among perspectives on various issues. …”

Opportunities for decarbonization in Russia by Sharmina, M

“…Russia has also expressed its intention to develop renewable energy sources; indigenous renewables could provide significant emission reduction, given that their technical potential exceeds the country’s energy needs by at least 30 times (according to the Krzhizhanovsky Energy Institute’s estimates). …”

Single axis geometry by fitting conics by Jiang, G, Tsui, H-T, Quan, L, Zisserman, A

“…It is then shown that the geometry of single axis motion can be recovered given at least two such conics. In the case of two conics the reconstruction may have a two fold ambiguity, but this ambiguity is removed if three conics are used.…”

Institutional constraints to higher education datafication: an English case study by Brooks, R, Timms, J

“…This article draws on a particular case study—of attempts to widen participation to ‘sandwich courses’ in English higher education institutions—to argue that, in some areas of activity at least, institutional constraints serve to limit datafication substantially, including insufficient time and infrastructure, the prioritisation of data required for other purposes (typically national assessment exercises) and the role of institutional cultures. …”

The robust F-statistic as a test for weak instruments by Windmeijer, F

“…For the linear model with a single endogenous variable, (Montiel Olea and Pflueger 2013) proposed the effective F-statistic as a test for weak instruments in terms of the Nagar bias of the two-stage least squares (2SLS) or limited information maximum likelihood (LIML) estimator relative to a benchmark worst-case bias. …”

“It would be pretty immoral to choose a random algorithm”: Opening up algorithmic interpretability and transparency by Webb, HM, Patel, M, Rovatsos, M, Davoust, A, Ceppi, S, Koene, A, Dowthwaite, L, Portillo, V, Jirotka, M, Cano, M

“…We conducted discussion-based experiments centred around a limited resource allocation scenario which required participants to select their most and least preferred algorithms in a particular context. …”

The effect of defining model on the accuracy of syntactic class identification in when-definitions in digital dictionaries by Ptasznik, Bartosz, Lew, Robert

“…Significant differences are found between all three defining models, with the most effective being a model using the personal pronoun (you), the least effective being definitions using the indefinite pronoun (someone), and a defining model using a noun phrase (a person) resulting in intermediate scores. …”
