Neuroimaging meta regression for coordinate based meta analysis data with a spatial model by Yu, Y, Pintos Lobo, R, Riedel, MC, Bottenhorn, K, Laird, AR, Nichols, T

“…In this article, we propose a generative coordinate-based meta-regression (CBMR) framework to approximate a smooth activation intensity function and investigate the effect of study-level covariates (e.g. year of publication, sample size). We employ a spline parameterization to model the spatial structure of brain activation and consider four stochastic models for modeling the random variation in foci. …”

Quantifying behavior-based gender discrimination on collaborative platforms by Vásárhelyi, O, Vedres, B

“…Men and women are penalized if they follow highly female-like behavior, while categorical gender is no longer significant. As platforms employ algorithmic tools and AI systems to manage users’ activity and visibility, and recommend new projects to collaborate, stereotypes associated with behavior can have long-lasting consequences.…”

Showcase the smiles or the tears? How elicited perspectives determine optimal charity appeal content by Hildebrand, D, Hadi, R, Sen, S

“…Some charitable communications employ <i>deprived beneficiary</i> (DB) appeals (showcasing the distressing circumstances of suffering victims), while others feature <i>satiated beneficiary</i> (SB) appeals (depicting the improved state of victims after receiving help). …”

SimSC: a simple framework for semantic correspondence with temperature learning by Li, X, Han, K, Wan, X, Prisacariu, VA

“…By setting an appropriate temperature to the softmax, this over-smoothness can be alleviated and the quality of features can be substantially improved. We employ a learning module to predict the optimal temperature for fine-tuning feature backbones. …”

Sparse identification of nonlocal interaction kernels in nonlinear gradient flow equations via partial inversion by Carrillo de la Plata, J, Estrada-Rodriguez, G, Mikolás, L, Tang, S

“…Our approach involves formulating and solving a regularized variational problem, which requires minimizing a quadratic error functional across a set of hypothesis functions, further augmented by a sparsity-enhancing regularizer. We employ a partial inversion algorithm, akin to the CoSaMP and subspace pursuit algorithms, to solve the Basis Pursuit problem. …”

Involuntary transnationalism and regulated precarity: lived experiences of skilled Chinese and Indian migrants in Singapore by Zhan, Shaohua, Zhou, Min

“…While acknowledging such agency, we argue that transnationalism also involves forced-choice decision-making by migrants whose work and daily lives are subjected to structural constraints beyond individual control. We employ the concept of ‘involuntary transnationalism’ to capture this often-neglected dimension of transnationalism. …”

Anomaly Detection in Fractal Time Series with LSTM Autoencoders by Kirichenko, Lyudmyla, Koval, Yulia, Yakovlev, Sergiy, Chumachenko, Dmytro

“…The objective is to investigate whether changes in fractal properties can be identified by transitioning from the analysis of the original time series to the analysis of the sequence of Hurst exponent estimates. To this end, we employ an LSTM autoencoder neural network, demonstrating its effectiveness in detecting anomalies within synthetic fractal time series and real EEG signals by identifying deviations in the sequence of estimates. …”

Generate vascularized kidney organoids for studying kidney development by Zhang, Tian

“…Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs)-derived organoids recapitulate organ architecture and development processes. Here we employ a hPSCs-derived three-dimensional (3D) kidney organoid platform to study human kidney development in vitro, which cannot be realized otherwise due to ethical considerations. …”
