The cancellation heuristic in intertemporal choice shifts people's time preferences by Sengupta, Arjun, Savani, Krishna

“…The findings indicate that two features of human psychology-diminishing marginal utility and the cancellation heuristic-can be simultaneously utilized to nudge people to make decisions that would be better for them in the long run.…”

Construction of human digital twin model based on multimodal data and its application in locomotion mode identification by Zhong, Ruirui, Hu, Bingtao, Feng, Yixiong, Zheng, Hao, Hong, Zhaoxi, Lou, Shanhe, Tan, Jianrong

“…Data acquisition system is built to dynamically acquire and update the body state data and physiological data of the human body and realize the digital expression of multi-source heterogeneous human body information. A bidirectional long short-term memory and convolutional neural network (BiLSTM-CNN) based network is devised to fuse multimodal human data and extract the spatiotemporal features, and the human locomotion mode identification is taken as an application case. …”

Rupture kinematics of the 2005 Mw 8.6 Nias-Simeulue earthquake from the joint inversion of seismic and geodetic data by Konca, A. Ozgun, Hjorleifsdottir, Vala, Song, Alex Teh-Ru, Avouac, Jean-Philippe, Ji, Chen, Sieh, Kerry, Helmberger, Don V., Briggs, Richard W., Meltzner, Aron J.

“…Source models obtained from the inversion of various combinations of the teleseismic body waves and geodetic data are evaluated by comparing predicted and observed long-period seismic waveforms (100–500 sec). Our results indicate a relatively slow average rupture velocity of 1.5 to 2.5 km/sec and long average rise time of up to 20 sec. …”

Migration in the time of revolution : China, Indonesia, and the Cold War by Zhou, Taomo

“…Taomo Zhou asks probing questions of this important period in the histories of the People's Republic of China and Indonesia. What was it like to be a youth in search of an ancestral homeland that one had never set foot in, or an economic refugee whose expertise in private business became undesirable in one's new home in the socialist state? …”

Nearly perfect graphene chiral absorber based on chiral quasi bound states in the continuum by Tong, Haozhe

“…Chirality in photonics, particularly in absorption, has great potential for applications but remains less explored compared to scattering properties like reflection and transmission. By integrating graphene with chiral quasi-BICs from symmetry-broken bilayer photonic crystals (BPhCs), we propose a design achieving near-unity circular dichroism and enhanced chiral absorption. …”
