Modeling human-like non-rationality in social agents by Kochanowicz, Jaroslaw Slawomir

“…Conversely, non-rationality is characterized by a) informal or sub-symbolic processing instead of one based on formal representations; b) associative, habitual reactions rather than step by step deduction or optimization; c) lack of explicit goals or their link to decision making. Human species is the only one capable of consistent rationality, but the scale and gravity of human non-rationality are far greater than often suspected. …”

Optimizing carbon capture and storage (CCS) through thermal biomass conversion into terra preta and hydrogen: A short review by Norazlianie, Sazali, Kettner, Maurice, Salim, Naqib

“…Key findings show that Terra Preta can significantly enhance soil fertility, augment crop yields, and foster resilience to environmental stressors while sequestering carbon. However, long-term field studies are necessary to comprehensively evaluate the efficacy of Terra Preta across various agricultural systems and climates. …”

Combining laser frequency combs and iodine cell calibration techniques for Doppler detection of exoplanets by Cahoy, K., Fischer, D., Spronck, J., Demille, D.

“…The smaller mass and longer period of true Earth analogues require the ability to detect a reflex velocity of ~10 cm/s over long time periods. Currently, typical astronomical spectrographs calibrate using either Iodine absorptive cells or Thorium Argon lamps and achieve ~10 m/s precision, with the most stable spectrographs pushing down to ~2 m/s. …”

“…Tests aimed to assess the performance of this kind of detectors in high-irradiation conditions, analogous to the ones foreseen for the coming years at the Large Hadron Collider experiments, were performed, and demonstrate a performance basically similar to the one obtained with the gas mixtures currently in use, based on tetrafluoroethane, which is being progressively phased out for its possible contribution to the greenhouse effect. Long term aging tests are also being carried out, with the goal to demonstrate the possibility of using these eco-friendly gas mixtures during the whole High Luminosity phase of the Large Hadron Collider.…”

G., Moran, P., Nazeer, J., Patel, T., Rathnayake, M., Raymond, R., Redwine, R. P., Schmidt, A., Schneekloth, U., Sokhan, D., Suresh, M., Vidal, C., Yang, Z.

“…The purpose is to determine the contributions beyond single-photon exchange, which are essential for the Quantum Electrodynamic (QED) description of the most fundamental process in hadronic physics. By utilizing a 20 cm long liquid hydrogen target in conjunction with the extracted beam from the DESY synchrotron, we can achieve an average luminosity of $$2.12\times 10^{35}$$ 2.12 × 10 35  cm $$^{-2}\cdot $$ - 2 · s $$^{-1}$$ - 1  ( $$\approx 200$$ ≈ 200 times the luminosity achieved by OLYMPUS). …”

Scalable mesenchymal stem cell enrichment from bone marrow aspirate using deterministic lateral displacement (DLD) microfluidic sorting by Tan Kwan Zen, Nicholas, Zeming, Kerwin Kwek, Teo, Kim Leng, Loberas, Mavis, Lee, Jialing, Goh, Chin Ren, Yang, Da Hou, Oh, Steve, Hui Hoi Po, James, Cool, Simon M., Hou, Han Wei, Han, Jongyoon

“…Conventional MSC harvesting from BMA relies on archaic centrifugation methods, often leading to poor yield due to osmotic stress, high centrifugation force, convoluted workflow, and long experimental time (∼2–3 hours). To address these issues, we have developed a scalable microfluidic technology based on deterministic lateral displacement (DLD) for MSC isolation. …”

The order of operations and A/Ā interactions by Newman, Elise

“…Indirect objects wh-move through the position that controls A-movement early, blocking a direct object from A-moving, so long as the indirect object can A-move itself. The analysis features a smuggling approach to passives of ditransitives (Collins 2005) and an economy condition like van Urk and Richards’ (2015) Multitasking, which jointly predict the order of operations that gives rise to the wh-movement restriction observed in Norwegian.…”

Accelerated synthesis of Li(Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1)O2 cathode materials using flame-assisted spray pyrolysis and additives by Zhang, Jianan, Muldoon, Valerie L, Deng, Sili

“…As a result, with only 20 min of calcination at 875 °C and without any preheating and ramping steps, the NCM811 sample showed an ordered layered structure and comparable electrochemical performance to those with long-time calcination. Moreover, the current work demonstrated that the shortened post calcination was benefited from lithium-embedded particles that likely improved the uniformity of lithium distribution in as-synthesized powder. …”

Individual Mobility Prediction in Mass Transit Systems Using Smart Card Data: An Interpretable Activity-Based Hidden Markov Approach by Mo, Baichuan, Zhao, Zhan, Koutsopoulos, Haris N, Zhao, Jinhua

“…Based on a case study of Hong Kong’s metro system, we show that the proposed model can achieve similar prediction performance as the state-of-the-art long short-term memory (LSTM) model. Unlike LSTM, the proposed IOHMM approach can also be used to analyze hidden activity patterns, which provides meaningful behavioral interpretation for why an individual makes a certain trip. …”
