To What Extent Do Alternative Energy Sources Displace Coal and Oil in Electricity Generation? A Mean-Group Panel Analysis by Liddle, Brantley

“…As such, our approach avoids/addresses several statistical issues common in long-macro panel analyses—heterogeneity, nonstationarity, and cross-sectional dependence—that have largely been ignored/unaddressed in previous displacement studies. …”

The effect of inter-municipal cooperation on social assistance programs: evidence from housing allowances in England by Elston, T, Bel, G, Wang, H

“…Using coarsened exact matching and stacked difference-in-differences estimators, we find no evidence of short-term savings after cooperation, and only weak indications thereafter. …”

Can solar water kiosks generate sustainable revenue streams for rural water services? by Wagner, J, Merner, S, Innocenti, S, Geling, A, Hope, R

“…Average revenues increase four-fold indicating stronger financial performance with solar kiosks. In contrast, we find no significant increase in the volume of water people use when a handpump is upgraded to a solar kiosk. …”

Unveiling the importance of longer paths in quantum networks by Hu, X, Dong, G, Lambiotte, R, Christensen, K, Fan, J, Tian, Z, Havlin, S, Meng, X

“…This increased resilience is also evident in real-world hierarchical, scale-free Internet networks. Our findings highlight a critical principle for QN design: non-shortest paths contribute significantly to QN connectivity compared to classical percolation—as long as they are abundant.…”

Enviro-toons : what do parents think about it? by Goh, Jeannette

“…With children’s methods of learning growing increasingly dependent on media, it comes as no surprise that when academics needed to find out what children know about nature, they would turn to that outlet. …”

Task allocation and scheduling for distributed job execution by Guan, Yitong

“…We extend conventional max-min fairness for resource allocation in a single machine or machine cluster to distributed job execution over multiple sites and define Aggregate Max-min Fairness (AMF) which requires the aggregate resource allocation across all sites to be max-min fair. …”

Territorial movements of African lions: can waterholes shape multiple central-place territories in a savanna ecosystem? by Dejeante, R, Loveridge, A, Macdonald, D, Madlamoto, D, Chamaille-James, S, Valeix, M

“…However, we found that both female and male lions repeatedly moved along straight paths between the waterholes located both in the core and in the periphery of their territories, potentially to defend multiple central-place territories driven by the distribution of waterholes in the landscape. These findings illustrate a case where territorial animals specifically mark feeding sites, increasing the renewal of territorial cues at these key places, potentially using long-distance territorial cues (i.e., vocalizations) to mark uncovered areas, and thereby reducing the cost of patrolling large territories. …”

Hybrid UNet transformer architecture for ischemic stoke segmentation with MRI and CT datasets by Soh, Wei Kwek, Rajapakse, Jagath Chandana
