Phonetic Faithfulness in Phonological Opacity by Kim, Yeong-Joon

“…The results of typological surveys encompassing 87 counterfeeding and 65 counterbleeding interactions across languages support this prediction, revealing that opacified processes are subject to a narrow range of markedness conditions, such as coarticulatory assimilation (e.g., palatalization) and durational adjustments (e.g., segmental weakening). Other types of phonological processes, particularly non-natural ones, are only rarely, if ever, opacified. …”

Targeted hematopoietic stem cell depletion through SCF-blockade by Chan, Yan Y., Ho, Pui Y., Dib, Carla, Swartzrock, Leah, Rayburn, Maire, Willner, Hana, Ko, Ethan, Ho, Katie, Down, Julian D., Wilkinson, Adam C., Nakauchi, Hiro, Denis, Morgane, Cool, Taylor, Czechowicz, Agnieszka

“…Further, to augment efficacy, combination regimens were also explored. Results We confirm that only ACK2 inhibits SCF binding fully and prevents HSC proliferation in vitro. …”

Prediction of stable perovskite quantum dots (QDs) using machine learning (ML) algorithms by Cheong, Ivan

“…However, they have not been widely studied, with applications limited to solar cells and catalytic activity, the full extent of possible applications are yet to be realised. At the nano regime the properties are often different and can be controlled, this is due to quantum confinement and larger surface to volume ratio, which can be adjusted by controlling the size, subsequently able to use for various application. …”

Theoretical study on forced convection filmwise condensation inside converging channels in the presence of a non-condensable gas by Liu, Pengfei, Ho, Jin Yao, Kandasamy, Ranjith, Wong, Teck Neng

“…When the air mass fraction is high (W=0.4), the enhancement ratio appears to be insensitive to the Reynolds number in the laminar and turbulent regime, respectively. In addition, the enhancement ratio generally increases as the air mass fraction increases.…”

A theory of zeugma by Yeo, Jia Qi

“…I then identify basic structures for the three subtypes of nominal, verbal and adjectival zeugma, and consolidate several disparate concepts previously mentioned in relation to zeugma, including homonymy, regular and irregular polysemy, and Segmented Discourse Representation Theory. I also consider the siting of elegant zeugma within its surrounding written discourse as a crucial complement to the usual approach of analysing word relations within the utterance. …”

“…Hantaviridae are a family of segmented negative-sense RNA viruses that contain important human and animal pathogens. …”

Next generation design of floating systems for coastal solar farms by Bi, Cheng

“…In the single-barrier-platform system, the barrier is installed in front of the platform, and significant reduction in platform displacement can be achieved when the barrier is in the membrane-like hydroelastic regime with relatively high rigidity and has a penetration more than 40% of water depth. …”

Shedding Light on Chemoresistance: The Perspective of Photodynamic Therapy in Cancer Management by Viana Cabral, Fernanda, Quilez Alburquerque, Jose, Roberts, Harrison James, Hasan, Tayyaba

“…Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has emerged as a promising photochemistry-based approach to address chemoresistance in cancer regimens. PDT not only induces cell death but also primes surviving cells, enhancing their susceptibility to subsequent therapies. …”

Deep neural networks have an inbuilt Occam’s razor by Mingard, C, Rees, H, Valle-Pérez, G, Louis, AA

“…The prior over functions is determined by the network architecture, which we vary by exploiting a transition between ordered and chaotic regimes. For Boolean function classification, we approximate the likelihood using the error spectrum of functions on data. …”

Profiting from prestige: the political economy of mega-events in Azerbaijan by Laporte, J

“…By problematising the direction of causality between mega-events and rentseeking behaviour, this analysis expands current theories on states’ motivations for hosting these events and contributes to existing understandings about how these proceedings serve to support and sustain rentier regimes.…”
