“It's not just about the migrants.” Anti-immigrant discourse and co-opted marginality in the online public sphere by Emes, Claire Stravato

“…The findings suggest that anti-immigrant discourse on social media is complex; the overt expression of negativity (xenophobia) competes with claims that engage the authorities’ responsibility and typify citizens’ fears of marginalization. The results also raise questions about social media offering opportunities for potentially influential alternative counterpublic discourses connecting via emotions, expressing co-opted marginality. …”

The effect of silver nitrate and silver thiosulphate on in vitro shoot regeneration of australian pink finger lime (Citrus australasica cv. Mia Rose) by Qiao, Stephanie Er Wong, Sreeramanan Subramaniam, Bee, Lynn Chew

“…Conventional propagation of C. australasica is challenged by incompatibility issues during grafting and budding, its monoembryonic nature, and the lengthy time required to flower and bear fruits. Micropropagation on the other hand is an efficient alternative to conventional propagation for various commercial crops including citruses. …”

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. …”

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. …”

Unsupervised Canine Emotion Recognition Using Momentum Contrast by Bhave, Aarya, Hafner, Alina, Bhave, Anushka, Gloor, Peter A.

“…Towards that goal, we built a dataset with 2184 images of ten popular dog breeds, grouped into seven similarly sized primal mammalian emotion categories defined by neuroscientist and psychobiologist Jaak Panksepp as ‘Exploring’, ‘Sadness’, ‘Playing’, ‘Rage’, ‘Fear’, ‘Affectionate’ and ‘Lust’. We modified the contrastive learning framework MoCo (Momentum Contrast for Unsupervised Visual Representation Learning) to train it on our original dataset and achieved an accuracy of 43.2% and a baseline of 14%. …”
