The moral formation of the intellectual appetite in Hugh of St. Victor, Philip Melanchthon, and John Henry Newman by Williams, B

“…However, Nussbaum's decision to harness the intellectual appetite for the political liberalism of John Rawls, and Stanley Fish's decision to harness it for the modern research university means that both fail to offer comprehensive accounts of education. …”

Optimization of cognitive radio systems with energy harvesting by Pratibha

“…We consider a discrete Markov chain based PU traffic and the proposed policy exploits the correlation in PU occupancy states to make decisions in each time slot based on the SU energy levels and the believed PU channel state. …”

Image processing for cryogenic transmission electron microscopy of symmetry-mismatched complexes by Huiskonen, JT

“…Structures with multiple symmetry-related substructures are advantageous in averaging approaches because each image provides multiple views of the substructures. …”

Arthroscopic Bone Block and Arthroscopic Latarjet for Anterior Shoulder Dislocation—Technical Note with Tricks and Tips for Conversion and Successful Surgery by Longo, Umile Giuseppe, Marcello, Gianmarco, Nazarian, Ara, DeAngelis, Joseph, D’Hooghe, Margaux, D’Hooghe, Pieter

“…Even though the indication to perform a free bone block or a Latarjet procedure may be given preoperatively, in cases where the choice between the two procedures is unclear, the decision can be made intraoperatively, given the possibility to switch from one to another. …”

From phosphate to refugees: the offshore refugee boom in the Republic of Nauru by Morris, J

“…</p> <p>Nauru has occupied a prominent place in the international news, but the landscape of refugee market production that takes place there is represented by legal critics and global media as an exception. …”

Assessment and report of individual symptoms in studies of delirium in postoperative populations: a systematic review by Bowman, EML, Sweeney, AM, McAuley, DF, Cardwell, C, Kane, J, Badawi, N, Jahan, N, Iqbal, HK, Mitchell, C, Ballantyne, JA, Cunningham, EL

“…Two reviewers independently examined titles and abstracts. Each paper was screened in duplicate and conflicting decisions settled by consensus discussion. …”

Neural combinatorial optimization: from routing to integer programming by Wu, Yaoxin

“…We describe the solving process of improvement heuristics as a Markov decision process (MDP), and then design a self-attention based neural architecture for the policy in MDP so that it is used to select the next solution at each step of the local search. …”

A study of corrosion behaviour of typical pump materials under sea water by Mao, Terrence Wei Quan

“…Scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy are also conducted on the materials before and after corrosion to observe for any changes in morphology or elemental distribution. The weight loss of each material is calculated after the corrosion immersion and compared to see how each material corrodes at different salinities and temperatures. …”

Memory-efficient and rapidly-converging path planner by Immanuel, Ivan

“…For that purpose, a robust path planning algorithm is critical in determining the route which needs to be traveled by each UAV. The planner employed by UTM must be able to return optimal, or at least near optimal path, to avoid convolutions and reduce energy consumption of each UAV. …”
