Hunting and the social lives of Southern Africa’s first farmers by Jones, M, Kapumha, R, Chirikure, S, Marshall, F

“…Analytical models that distinguish foraging from food production remain popular, but scholars are beginning to recognize greater variability in the ways people understood and engaged with animals in the past. In southern Africa, researchers have observed that wild animals were economically and socially important to recent agropastoral societies. …”

Septic patients with cancer : do prehospital antibiotics improve survival? A sub-analysis of the PHANTASi trial by Panday, Rishi Nannan, Wang, S., Schermer, E. H., Cooksley, T., Alam, N., Nanayakkara, P. W. B.

“…Results: 357(13.4%) of the 2658 included patients had cancer in the past five years, of which, 209 (58.5%) were included in the intervention and 148 (41.5%) usual care groups; 28-day mortality was significantly higher in patients who were diagnosed with cancer in the past five years than those without cancer in the past five years: 15.2% vs. 7.1%, respectively (p < 0.001). …”

SVD-gorank: Recommender system algorithm using SVD and gower's ranking by Saifudin, Ilham, Widiyaningtyas, Triyanna, Zaeni, Ilham Ari Elbaith, Aminuddin, Afrig

“…Experimental results using the MovieLens-100K, MovieLens-1M, Book-Crossing, Ciao, Epinions, Flixster, and MovieLens-10M datasets can provide the best accuracy results at the Top-N level, especially in the NDCG, MRR, Precision, Hit Rate, and Recall metrics, which are indicators important in recommendation systems that focus on the relevance of recommendations at the top of the list. Apart from that, the SVD-GoRank algorithm can also have efficient running time.…”

Complexity of High-Dimensional Identity Testing with Coordinate Conditional Sampling by Blanca, Antonio, Chen, Zongchen, Stefankovic, Daniel, Vigoda, Eric

“…Given as input an explicit distribution , an > 0, and access to sampling oracle(s) for a hidden distribution , the goal in identity testing is to distinguish whether the two distributions and are identical or are at least -far apart. When there is only access to full samples from the hidden distribution , it is known that exponentially many samples (in the dimension) may be needed for identity testing, and hence previous works have studied identity testing with additional access to various “conditional” sampling oracles. …”

Mapping the structural and dynamical features of multiple p53 DNA binding domains : insights into loop 1 intrinsic dynamics by Lukman, Suryani., Lane, David P., Verma, Chandra S.

“…Loop 1 occupies two major conformational states: extended and recessed; the former but not the latter displays correlations in atomic fluctuations with those of loop 2 (~24 Å apart). Since loop 1 binds to the major groove whereas loop 2 binds to the minor groove of DNA, our results begin to provide some insight into the possible mechanism underpinning the cooperative nature of DBD binding to DNA. …”

Effects of product reviews on purchase intention : online shopping from a presence perspective. by He, Xiaoyu.

“…Research shows that consumer product reviews (CPRs), as a form of electronic word-of-mouth, can help reduce the risks of online shopping and even influence shoppers’ purchase decisions. However, apart from providing extra information about products, CPRs may have social impact on potential shoppers since they may elicit the presence of the existing customers. …”
