Collective effect of self-learning and social learning on language dynamics: a naming game approach in social networks by Wen, T, Chen, Y-W, Lambiotte, R

“…However, there are always irregular exceptions to regular rules, with one of the most notable being the past tense of verbs in English. In this work, a naming game approach is developed to investigate the collective effect of social behaviours on language dynamics, which encompasses social learning, self-learning with preference and forgetting due to memory constraints. …”

Eddy transport with a beta effect: a joint experimental and numerical study by Qian, C

“…Annulus measurements in the f-plane configuration do not support the assumption of down-gradient diffusion of temperature and this result is consistent with past simulation studies. The hypotheses of energetic constraints in the GEOMETRIC parameterization theory are not rejected but the data distribution is not as approximately linear as the tests with a beta effect. …”

Near Optimal Alphabet-Soundness Tradeoff PCPs by Minzer, Dor, Zheng, Kai Zhe

“…We show that for all > 0, for su ciently large prime power ∈ N, for all > 0, it is NP-hard to distinguish whether a 2-Prover1-Round projection game with alphabet size has value at least 1 − , or value at most 1/ 1− . This establishes a nearly optimal alphabet-to-soundness tradeo for 2-query PCPs with alphabet size , improving upon a result of [Chan 2016]. …”
