The intelligence of artifice: Oscar Wilde and AI by Tyson, C, Mendelssohn, M

“…At the turn of the century, Wilde recombined strands inherited from French and American sources and refashioned them into a new artistic stance that anticipated the postmodern preoccupation with fakery. A direct line can be traced between Baudrillard’s ‘simulacra’ and Jameson’s ‘linguistic masks’ and Wilde’s celebration of ‘the truth of masks’ a century earlier. …”

Autoimmune and paraneoplastic seizures by Wagner, B, Irani, S

“…We emphasize the more effective immunotherapy response in patients with causative autoantibodies, and discuss the emerging evidence for various first-, second-, and third-line immunotherapies. Finally, we highlight available clinical rating scales which can guide autoantibody testing and immunotherapy in patients with seizures of unknown etiology. …”

The Enggano-Dutch word list derived from Helfrich's (1916) “Nadere Bijdrage Tot de Kennis van Het Engganeesch” by Rajeg, GPW

“…In addition, we include the following files: (a) the orthography profile; (b) the variant form table; (c) R codes to pre-process the database (all ended with .R extension); (d) output of the Indonesian translation in .rds format where the source is Dutch or English. The one-line, multiple forms in the original are split into separate rows.…”

One-dimensional sectors from the squashed three-sphere by Bomans, P, Pufu, S

“…Three-dimensional $\mathcal{N}$=4 superconformal field theories contain 1d topological sectors consisting of twisted linear combinations of half-BPS local operators that can be inserted anywhere along a line. After a conformal mapping to a round three-sphere, the 1d sectors are now defined on a great circle of $\mathcal{S}$³. …”

Insulinotropic activity of Tinospora crispa extract: effect on β-cell Ca2+ handling by Noor, Hamdan, Ashcroft, Stephen J. H.

“…The mechanism of insulinotropic action of Tinospora crispa was investigated in vitro using an insulin-secreting clonal β-cell line, HIT-T15. The aqueous extract sensitizes the β-cell to extracellular Ca2+ and promotes intracellular Ca2+ accumulation which in turn causes increased insulin release. …”

Parallel and distributed algorithms for computational fluid flow simulations by Vu, Thanh Tung

“…The new approach is then customized for different numerical schemes in three fluid flow simulation cases: (1) flood modelling using a second-order Godunov-type monotone upstream scheme with second-order accuracy; (2) computational fluid dynamic (CFD) modelling for laminar flows using the 2-step explicit numerical scheme from the Lax-Wendroff family of predictors and correctors and (3) Lattice Boltzmann method for laminar flows with two dimensions and nine possible directions for streaming processes. …”
