The greening of terminal concessions in seaports by Notteboom, Theo, Lam, Jasmine Siu Lee

“…Measures related to information reporting and some types of harm-based standards, design standards, and technology specifications are relatively easy to implement in a concession setting. The results also show that many of the measures with a higher expected contribution to innovation and environmental objectives are typically also the ones with higher regulation costs, which might post a higher complexity in terms of their implementation in a concession setting. …”

Learning object categories from internet image searches by Fergus, R, Fei-Fei, L, Perona, P, Zisserman, A

“…By training our models directly from Internet images, we remove the need to laboriously compile training data sets, required by most other recognition approaches-this opens up the possibility of learning object category models “on-the-fly.” …”

Supersymmetric Yang-Mills, spherical branes, and precision holography by Bobev, N, Bomans, P, Gautason, FF, Minahan, JA, Nedelin, A

“…We find excellent agreement between the two sets of results. This constitutes a non-trivial precision test of holography in a non-conformal setting. …”

Reduction of bubble cavitation by modifying the diffraction wave from a lithotripter aperture by Zhou, Yufeng

“…There is no difference, however, in both the amplitude and duration of the compressive shockwaves between these two configurations as well as the −6 dB beam width in the focal plane. The significant suppression effect of bubble cavitation was confirmed by the measured bubble collapse time using passive cavitation detection. …”

Tumor-targeted nano-assemblies for energy-blocking cocktail therapy in cancer by Chen, Manling, Liu, Yidu, Li, Yang, Liu, Xue

“…In studies with A549 tumor-bearing mice, the combination of low-dose 2-DG and metformin did not impede tumor growth, whereas 2-DG@MA-dots markedly decreased tumor volume, with the mean final tumor volume in the combination treatment group being approximately 89 times greater than that in the 2-DG@MA-dot group. …”

Truthful allocation in graphs and hypergraphs by Christodoulou, G, Koutsoupias, E, Kovacs, A

“…We study truthful mechanisms for allocation problems in graphs, both for the minimization (i.e., scheduling) and maximization (i.e., auctions) setting. The minimization problem is a special case of the well-studied unrelated machines scheduling problem, in which every given task can be executed only by two pre-specified machines in the case of graphs or a given subset of machines in the case of hypergraphs. …”
