Pareto Adaptive Robust Optimality via a Fourier–Motzkin Elimination lens by Bertsimas, Dimitris, ten Eikelder, Stefan C. M., den Hertog, Dick, Trichakis, Nikolaos

“…A worst-case optimal solution pair of here-and-now decisions and wait-and-see decisions is PARO if it cannot be Pareto dominated by another solution, i.e., there does not exist another worst-case optimal pair that performs at least as good in all scenarios in the uncertainty set and strictly better in at least one scenario. …”

Mind the perception gap: The impact of bus rapid transit infrastructure on travelers’ perceptions of affective subjective well-being by Navarrete-Hernandez, Pablo, Christopher Zegras, P

“…We test this approach using an urban corridor approximately 2 km in length in Boston, exploring the impact of 65 different BRT infrastructure alternatives. We find that: (1) compared to regular bus services, a ‘standard BRT’ consisting of a painted bus lane and the addition of a cycle lane significantly enhances SWB; (2) an ‘SWB infrastructure’ option that replaces car parking with improvements for cyclists and pedestrians and adds street amenities further enhances SWB; and, (3) the BRT infrastructure elements most effective in enhancing affective SWB for users of all transport modes are the addition of green spaces, improvement of crosswalks, and provision of more space for pedestrians and cyclists. …”

Unravelling gene regulation in the epidermis during differentiation by Anisa Banu Abdul Rahim

“…The rate-limiting enzyme adenosyl methionine decarboxylase (AMD1) promotes the synthesis of Spd and Spm from Put and changes in AMD1 levels directly influence the ratio and levels of all three polyamines. We find that AMD1 is highly enriched in the suprabasal layers of the human epidermis and is translationally upregulated during in vitro differentiation of immortalized and human primary keratinocytes. …”
