Legitimate power, illegitimate automation: the problem of ignoring legitimacy in automated decision systems by Stone, J, Mittelstadt, BD

“…This analysis reveals that these theories require careful consideration before being applied to legitimate ADS. Specifically, we find that consent and public reason theories can legitimate some automated decision systems, but encounter serious difficulties which limit their applicability. …”

British Muslim youth and religious fundamentalism: a quantitative investigation by Kashyap, R, Lewis, VA

“…We use new survey data to empirically examine how Muslim youth differ from older Muslims and non-Muslim British peers on religiosity, Islam-specific and broader social attitudes. We find that young Muslims attribute a greater salience to Islam for their personal identity, even though they pray and read scripture less, and support plural interpretations of Islam more than their elders. …”

Modelling cerebrovascular pathology and the spread of amyloid beta in Alzheimer’s disease by Ahern, A, Thompson, TB, Oliveri, H, Lorthois, S, Goriely, A

“…Here, we develop a brain-wide model that combines protein-capillary interactions with the prion-like dynamics of amyloid beta in the structural connectome. We find that a bistable dynamics emerges from the amyloid betahypoperfusion feedback loop giving rise to nontrivial spatio-temporal dynamics. …”

Neuroimaging meta regression for coordinate based meta analysis data with a spatial model by Yu, Y, Pintos Lobo, R, Riedel, MC, Bottenhorn, K, Laird, AR, Nichols, T

“…In such analyses, a key practical challenge is to find a computationally efficient approach with good statistical interpretability to model the locations of activation foci. …”

Seasonal density-dependence can select for partial migrants in migratory species by Liu, J, Zhang, Z, Coulson, T

“…Our theoretical models were motivated by empirical data identified via a systematic literature review. We find that the equilibrium density in the season with the strongest density-dependence of a strategy predicts whether the strategy will become dominant within the population. …”

Frontier rule and conflict by Malik, M, Mirza, RA, Rehman, FU

“…Using the arbitrarily defined historical border between frontier and non-frontier regions in northwestern Pakistan and 10km-by-10km grid-level conflict data in a spatial regression discontinuity design, we find that areas historically under frontier rule experienced significantly higher violence against the state after 9/11. …”

The London money market and non-British bank lending during the first globalisation: evidence from Brazil by Kisling, W, Molteni, M

“…Using monthly data between 1889 and 1913, we find a positive relationship between the amount of credit authorised by the German Brasilianische Bank für Deutschland in Brazil and the spread between the London market and floating rate. …”

Toxic speech and limited demand for content moderation on social media by Pradel, F, Zilinsky, J, Kosmidis, S, Theocharis, Y

“…We present results from two studies with pre-registered randomized experiments (Study 1, N = 5,130; Study 2, N = 3,734) to examine how these variants causally affect users’ content moderation preferences. We find that while both the severity of toxicity and the target of the attack matter, the demand for content moderation of toxic speech is limited. …”

Allee effects: empirical analyses of wild British butterfly populations and theoretical implications for population synchrony by Dooley, C

“…In chapter 2 I investigate the spatial variation in influential density-dependent processes and density-independent weather factors for the large skipper butterfly <em>Ochlodes sylvanus</em> across its British range. I find both qualitative and quantitative spatial variation in these processes and factors driving population dynamics. …”

Employment dynamics in a rapid decarbonization of the US power sector by Bücker, J, del Rio-Chanona, RM, Pichler, A, Ives, MC, Farmer, JD

“…However, without proper planning, rapidly growing industries will struggle to find skilled labor during the scale-up phase, while displaced workers might struggle finding jobs during the scale-down phase. …”

Rapid modulation of striatal cholinergic interneurons and dopamine release by satellite astrocytes by Stedehouder, J, Roberts, B, Raina, S, Bossi, S, Liu, AKA, Doig, N, McGerty, K, Magill, P, Parkkinen, L, Cragg, S

“…These findings reveal a privileged satellite astrocyte-interneuron interaction for striatal ChIs operating on subsecond timescales via regulation of extracellular calcium dynamics to shape downstream striatal circuit activity and dopamine signaling. …”

Supersymmetric Yang-Mills, spherical branes, and precision holography by Bobev, N, Bomans, P, Gautason, FF, Minahan, JA, Nedelin, A

“…The same calculation can also be performed in supergravity using the recently found spherical brane solutions. We find excellent agreement between the two sets of results. …”

Bubble instability of mIIA on AdS4 x S6 by Bomans, P, Cassani, D, Dibitetto, G, Petri, N

“…Motivated by these results, we study possible bubbling solutions connected to the G2 vacuum, representing non-perturbative instabilities of the latter. We indeed find an instability channel represented by the nucleation of a bubble of nothing dressed up with a homogeneous D2 brane charge distribution in the internal space. …”

Competition policy and the labour share by Zac, A, Casti, C, Decker, C, Ezrachi, A

“…Using a panel of 22 industries in 12 OECD economies, we find a positive statistical association between the effectiveness of competition policy and changes in the labor share over the period 1995–2005. …”

That's Not How We Do It Here! : A Story About How Organizations Rise, Fall - and Can Rise Again / by Kotter, John P., 1947-, author 368412, Rathgeber, Holger, author 507836

“…These meerkats have developed innova&shy;tive solutions to find food and evade the vultures. But not everything in this small clan is as perfect as it seems at first. …”

STRUCTURAL RELIABILITY FUNDAMENTALS AND THEIRS APPLICATION TO OFFSHORE PLATFORMS / by Ezanizam Mat Soom, 1976-, author 554694, Mohd. Khairi Abu Husain, author 543748, Noor Irza Mohd. Zaki, author 543750, Nurul Uyun Azman, author 190976, Nurul 'Azizah Mukhlas, 1992-, author 595767, Sayyid Zainal Abidin Syed Ahmad, 1982-, author 609234

“…In addition, a reliable method is shown to determine the value of the load coefficient for determining the limit level of wave in-deck. End with readers finding out how to incorporate wave in-deck load when performing advanced non-linear analysis.…”

Three essays on corporate finance by Zou, Kunru

“…Taken together, our findings imply that debt covenants, which are designed to alleviate creditor-shareholder conflicts, may have unintended consequences of exacerbating the conflicts between creditors and other stakeholders. …”
