Rediscovering Homo sapiens in international politics: evolution and rationality’s missing link by Johnson, D

Uncovering vein patterns from color skin images for personal identification in forensic investigation by Tang, Chaoying

“…Using these images as evidence in legal cases (e.g. child sexual abuse, child pornography and masked gunmen) can be very challenging, because the faces of criminals or victims are not visible. Although large skin marks and tattoos have been used, they are ineffective in some legal cases, because the skin exposed in evidence images have neither unique tattoos nor enough skin marks for identification. …”

Development of pigmented human skin constructs via 3D drop-on-demand bioprinting by Ng, Wei Long

“…The 3D hierarchical porous collagen-fibroblast matrices serve as the dermal skin constructs for patterning of EMUs. Lastly, the feasibility of fabricating pigmented human skin constructs with uniform skin pigmentation (using 3 different skin cells from 3 different skin donors) is demonstrated. …”

Dynamics of the sub-Ohmic spin-boson model : a comparison of three numerical approaches by Yao, Yao, Duan, Liwei, Lü, Zhiguo, Wu, Chang-Qin, Zhao, Yang

“…Dynamics of the sub-Ohmic spin-boson model is examined using three numerical approaches, namely the Dirac-Frenkel time-dependent variation with the Davydov D1 ansatz, the adaptive time-dependent density matrix renormalization group method within the representation of orthogonal polynomials, and a perturbative approach based on a unitary transformation. …”

“…However, only 17% (140 out of 818) of the participants were previously diagnosed with hypertension. The findings revealed a wide range of antihypertensive medication use among people with known hypertension, ranging from no medication to the use of five or more medication classes. …”

Link me baby one more time: social music discovery on Spotify by Babul, SA, Hristova, D, Lima, A, Lambiotte, R, Beguerisse-Díaz, M

“…We consider several factors that may influence this process, such as the strength of the sender-receiver relationship, the user’s role in the Spotify social network, their music social cohesion, and how similar the new artist is to the receiver’s taste. We find that the receiver of a link is more likely to engage with a new artist when (1) they have similar music taste to the sender and the shared track is a good fit for their taste, (2) they have a stronger and more intimate tie with the sender, and (3) the shared artist is popular amongst the receiver’s connections. …”

Connecting Local Economic Decline to the Politics of Geographic Discontent: The Missing Link of Perceptions by Green, J, Jennings, W, McKay, L, Stoker, G

“…Using original survey questions in the British Election Study, we theorise five models to explain who is likely to perceive local economic decline, and why. Using linked objective data, we analyse the relationship of perceptions to existing economic indicators, finding correspondence but also substantial and systematic variation driven by partisanship and heuristics, such as declining personal circumstances. …”

Exploring the non-linear relationship and mechanisms linking green finance to tourism development by Cong, Shufeng, Chin, Lee, Xu, Lei

“…This study examines the impact of green finance on China’s tourism industry using panel data of 240 cities—both tourist and non-tourist—from 2011 to 2019. Our findings reveal an ‘inverted U’ relationship between green finance and tourism development in both tourist and non-tourist cities. …”
