Crowdsourcing as Reflective Political Practice: Building a Location-based Tool for Civic Learning and Engagement by Graeff, Erhardt

“…They require that citizens leave the places they normally inhabit physically or virtually and commit to a separate space and set of processes. Town hall meetings are still a key point of engagement, occurring during specific times and in specific places. …”

Application of finite Gaussian process distribution of relaxation times on SOFC electrodes by Williams, Nicholas J, Osborne, Conor, Seymour, Ieuan D, Bazant, Martin Z, Skinner, Stephen J

“…Using a nonparametric tool known as Gaussian process (GP) regression, we showcase a method of finding a unique solution to the ill-posed DRT problem by optimising kernel hyperparameters as opposed to ad-hoc regularisation. …”

Influence of presumed influence on thinness as a beauty ideal for girls. by Soh, Wai Siong.

“…This is a direct response to Park’s (2005) call for further research on the Influence of Presumed Influence (IOPI) paradigm or indirect “two-step flow of mass media communication” which incorporates a “social context” into media effect studies. …”

Investigating the Applicability of the Peak Density Thickness Parameter over the Equatorial Region by Shammat, Mohamed O., Reinisch, Bodo W., Galkin, Ivan, Erickson, Philip J., Weitzen, Jay A., Rideout, William C.

“…A comprehensive analysis of electron density profiles measured by the Jicamarca ISR, spanning 1997 to 2020, was conducted using the Madrigal database to extract the PDT parameter for the F2 layer. Findings from the Jicamarca ISR indicate that the PDT parameter peaks around solar noon, aligning with observations from Millstone Hill. …”

Legal politics in the Libyan constitution-making process by van Lier, F

“…This is what happened in Libya, developing into what I call <em>legal politics</em>. Understanding the dynamics of <em>legal politics</em> raises questions about the assumptions of those who advocate constitution-making in post-conflict situations and casts doubt on the technocratic vision that states can be <em>built</em> in a rational and orderly fashion.…”

The role of p53 and ASPP2 in neurodegenerative disease by Turnquist, C

“…We demonstrate that Δ133p53 and p53β directly regulate astrocyte senescence, including the release of key neurotoxic proL inflammatory cytokines such as ILL6 and ILL1β. Also, we show that the p53 isoform switch that occurs during aging and neurodegeneration promotes neuronal toxicity using coL culture experiments with human iPSC-derived motor neurons and human astrocytes. …”

Re-evaluating GPT-4’s bar exam performance by Martínez, Eric

“…The paper successfully replicates the MBE score, but highlights several methodological issues in the grading of the MPT + MEE components of the exam, which call into question the validity of the reported essay score. …”

Structural studies of PfEMP1 bound to human cluster of differentiation 36 and of an unusual human antibody by Hsieh, F

“…<p>In <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em>-infected humans, parasites escape from splenic clearance and cause severe or chronic symptoms partly through the action of the variable surface antigens expressed on the surfaces of infected erythrocytes, called <em>P. falciparum</em> erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (<em>Pf</em>EMP1). …”

The Survey Method : The Contribution of Surveys to Sociological Explanation / by Marsh, Catherine, author 192668

“…In The Survey Method Catherine Marsh examines such claims and shows that much of this criticism is ill-founded. The book shows that surveys do not have to be mere superficial glimpses of the surface features of processes, fact-gathering exercises or opinion polls. …”

Narrowing the gap between machine learning scoring functions and free energy perturbation using augmented data by Valsson, Í, Warren, MT, Deane, CM, Magarkar, A, Morris, GM, Biggin, PC

“…Machine learning offers great promise for fast and accurate binding affinity predictions. However, current models lack robust evaluation and fail on tasks encountered in (hit-to-) lead optimisation, such as ranking the binding affinity of a congeneric series of ligands, thereby limiting their application in drug discovery. …”

Bayesian inverse problems for hyperbolic equations by Ng, Jeremy
