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. …”

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. …”

Comparison of transport methodologies on near-field pollutant dispersion in urban environments using CFD by Tee, Clarence Wei Tat

“…The two methodologies are validated by simulating the dispersion phenomena for two test cases which largely bear resemblance to urban settings: a three-dimensional street canyon setup and the Mock Urban Setting Test (MUST) field experiment. …”

Artificial Intelligence and the US-China Balance of Power by Chang, Benjamin Angel

“…Finally, the third essay exploits supply chain datasets to assess each side’s ability to bring AI-enabled autonomous weapons to bear in future conventional conflicts. I find that control over the production of advanced AI chips by the United States and allies almost certainly means the United States would better exploit such weapons, if they emerged as decisive in modern warfare, within at least the next ten years. …”

Electronic and optoelectronic devices using chemical vapour deposited 2D materials by Fan, Y

“…<p>Two dimensional (2D) materials bear a lot of expectations on playing important role in next generation electronics and optoelectronics. …”

Industrial policy refraction: how corporate strategy shapes development outcomes in Brazil by Zylberberg, E

“…My findings are brought to bear on three traditionally disparate bodies of research –industrial policy, corporate strategy and institutional theory – extending each and also bringing them into fruitful communion with one another.…”

Soft law, hard stakes? State commitment to non-binding international instruments and the case of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples by Villeneuve, L

“…In this thesis, incorporating insights from public international law into rationalist IR approaches, I argue that soft law instruments can have important effects over time and bring substantial costs for states to bear. This is particularly the case for soft law instruments ‘hardening’ through domestic law, treaties or customary international law, increasing the sovereignty and implementation costs attached to commitment. …”

Unravelling giant molecular clouds by Liang, F

“…<p>Giant molecular clouds (GMCs) provide the fuel for star formation and bear various feedbacks. Thus, they are key to our understanding of galaxy evolution and the baryon cycle. …”

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. …”

A secret of high-rate mass transfer in anammox granular sludge : "lung-like breathing" by Xu, Dongdong, Kang, Da, Yu, Tao, Ding, Aqiang, Lin, Qiujian, Zhang, Meng, Hu, Qianyi, Zheng, Ping

“…The AnGS cultivated in a bioreactor with higher nitrogen removal rate (NRR) was found to have the higher ExCA and ExCF when determinated at the same BLR, and the “lung-like breathing” behavior of one type of AnGS was revealed to bear a significantly (p < 0.05) positive correlation with the specific anammox activity (SAA). …”
