Dynamics of a self-interacting sheet in shear flow by Funkenbusch, William T., Silmore, Kevin S., Doyle, Patrick S.

“…We use kinetic and energetic arguments to explain why sheets adopt certain conformations within the folded regime. Finally, we calculate the stresslet and find that, even in the absence of thermal fluctuations and multiple sheet interactions, shear-thinning followed by shear-thickening behavior can appear.…”

Learning from the Nordic Welfare Model : what and how? by Xiong, Jieru

“…Thus, the notion that there must be a trade-off between economic performance and a more aggressive welfare regime should be examined more thoroughly. The debate for policy makers should perhaps be framed with regard to where the balance should be between growth and equity rather than a trade-off. …”

A principles-led approach to information assurance and governance in local government by Brett, Mark

“…This practice-based paper explores a principles-led approach to cyber information governance for local authorities (LAs) in England and Wales, while linking it to a corporate information governance regime to support cyber security and resilience. Over the past 15 years the author has worked with several LA regional cyber security groups known as WARPs (Warning, Advice and Reporting Points). …”

FedCBO: reaching group consensus in clustered Federated learning through Consensus-Based Optimization by Carrillo, JA, Trillos, NG, Li, S, Zhu, Y

“…Our model is motivated by rigorous mathematical reasoning, including a mean field analysis describing the large number of particles limit of our particle system, as well as convergence guarantees for the simultaneous global optimization of general non-convex objective functions (corresponding to the loss functions of each cluster of users) in the mean-field regime. Experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of our FedCBO algorithm compared to other state-of-the-art methods and help validate our methodological and theoretical work.…”

Switched neural networks for simultaneous learning of multiple functions. by Önder Efe, Mehmet, Kürkçü, Burak, Kasnakoǧlu, Coşku, Mohamed, Zaharuddin, Zhijie, Liu

A Sufficient Condition for k-Contraction of the Series Connection of Two Systems by Ofir, Ron, Margaliot, Michael, Levron, Yoash, Slotine, Jean-Jacques

“…The flow of contracting systems contracts 1-dimensional parallelotopes, i.e., line segments, at an exponential rate. One reason for the usefulness of contracting systems is that many interconnections of contracting sub-systems yield an overall contracting system. …”
