Scenes of misrecognition (Koltès, Duras) by Killeen, M-C

“…What is most fascinating about these works is the curious way in which they appear to bear all the markings of confessions yet pointedly refuse to behave like them, thwarting the desire for revelation, catharsis, and closure at every turn. …”

Floquet Codes without Parent Subsystem Codes by Davydova, Margarita, Tantivasadakarn, Nathanan, Balasubramanian, Shankar

“…However, unlike the honeycomb code, it possesses an explicit CSS structure and its gauge checks do not form a subsystem code. Nevertheless, we show that our dynamic protocol conserves logical information and possesses a threshold for error correction. …”

Comparison of Machine Learning-Based Methods for Narrowband Blind Adaptive Beamforming by Shonkwiler, Lara

“…Traditional blind source separation methods such as CMA, SOBI, JADE, and FastICA tend to be highly effective at beamforming datasets with moderate to large sample supports, but they do not perform well when they only have access to a limited number of data samples. They also bear the disadvantage that the appropriate algorithm must be selected based on the properties of the expected signal. …”

The other side of the Elbe River: interventions in art, modernity, and coloniality in Poland by Michalska, DJ

“…<p>The artistic practices of Zofia Stryjeńska (1891-1976), Władysław Hasior, (1928-1999), Teresa Murak (1949-) and Roman Stańczak (1969-) all bear testimony – in their own distinct ways – to the ‘shock of the new’, the massive rupture brought by modernisation and capitalism in twentieth-century Poland. …”

Behave The Biology of Humans at Our Best and Worst / by Sapolsky, Robert M., author 656050, Penguin Random House (Online service) 655978

“…Sapolsky's storytelling concept is delightful but it also has a powerful intrinsic logic: he starts by looking at the factors that bear on a person's reaction in the precise moment a behavior occurs, and then hops back in time from there, in stages, ultimately ending up at the deep history of our species and its evolutionary legacy. …”

Evaluation and fabrication of damaged composite material using non-destructive testing by Lai, Abigail Jang Wai

“…Since composites are extensively employed in many areas, it is important to determine the existence of surface and sub-surface defects before production and during regular maintenance checks. As time goes on, wear and tear occur to a material. …”

Experiences, perceptions and ethical considerations of the malaria infection study in Thailand by Naemiratch, B, Kulpijit, N, Ruangkajorn, S, Day, NPJ, Prachumsri, J, Cheah, PY

“…We found that although compensation was a motivation for participation, this was secondary to it being beneficial to self (health checks; link to health networks; building merit) and others (medical research contribution; altruism). …”

Three essays on frictions of trade by Li, W

“…The analysis is based on an adapted gravity model with several alternative specifications for robustness checks. The result suggests that improvements on the road network lead to trade expansion on both intensive and extensive margins, but the effects vary across the regions. …”
