Never Delete, Supersede: Memory as Evidence for Long-Lived Agents

Never Delete, Supersede: Memory as Evidence for Long-Lived Agents. An agent's memory that edits-in-place destroys the very thing a long-lived agent needs most: the record of what it used to believe and when. The working rule — every correction is a strike-through band above the o...

Persona Portability Under an Engine Swap: Four Experiments with Harness and Compute Confounds

Persona Portability Under an Engine Swap: Four Experiments with Harness and Compute Confounds. A single-engine dependency is, in principle, a single point of failure. This report examines how one set of persona-driven workflows behaved when moved from a reference engine family to...

Jury Methodology: A Pre-Registered Results Pack

Jury Methodology: A Pre-Registered Results Pack. How should an AI jury be evaluated without publishing the instruction library that makes the jury useful? This report's answer: preregister the comparison, keep the judging recipe sealed, publish result-level evidence, and preserve...

The Jury That May Not Vote for Its Own Family

The Jury That May Not Vote for Its Own Family. A model reviewing work produced by its own family sits in a structural conflict of interest — it may be inclined to find that work plausible — so the verification juries described here are cross-family by construction: the producer's...

Financial Development, Digitalization, and Energy Intensity in the European Union: Suggestive Evidence of a Conditional Association

This study examines whether the relationship between financial development and energy intensity in the European Union depends on the level of digitalization. Using a balanced panel of 27 EU member states over the period 2007–2019, we estimate two-way fixed effects models with Dri...

Portability of a Disk-Anchored Agent Identity Across Foundation Models: A Blind, Internally Pre-Sealed A/B Comparison

Large-language-model agents increasingly carry an identity — role, history, evolving state — anchored in external, persisted files rather than model weights. We examine whether such an identity can be operated with a non-native GPT-family engine using a four-experiment, blind A/B...

Pollen viability and germination performance in Gerbera: a comparative evaluation of assessment methods

Accurate and reliable assessment of pollen fertility is a critical prerequisite for selecting suitable pollen parents in ornamental plant breeding programs. This study aimed to evaluate pollen viability and in vitro germination performance in three commercial Gerbera jamesonii cu...

The Accumulating-Context Agent

The Accumulating-Context Agent. The unit of value in agent systems is not the model call — it is the accumulated context: an identity that has read its own ledgers for months can draw on decisions and corrections a fresh prompt would have to reconstruct from scratch. Engines rent...

Differential Effects of the Apelin Receptor Blockade by [Ala13]-Apelin-13 on Colonic Barrier Integrity and Hepatic Inflammatory Responses in Chemically Induced Colitis

The apelin receptor (APJ) is widely expressed throughout the body and plays important roles in the regulation of inflammation, oxidative stress, and tissue repair. Because APJ signaling is highly context dependent and may vary according to tissue type, inflammatory status, and li...

Evaluation of Drying Temperature and Air Velocity Dependent Profile of Bioactive Compounds, and Antioxidant Capacity of Black Mulberry (Morus Nigra L.) Fruit: a Chemometric Approach

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of drying temperature (50, 60, 70, and 80 °C) and air velocity (AV) (2 m/s and 3 m/s) on the phenolic compounds, antioxidant capacity, total phenolic and monomeric anthocyanin contents, and color parameters (L*, a*, b*, C*, h) of...

Post-Recurrence Outcomes Associated with a Bevacizumab-Containing First-Recurrence Strategy in Glioblastoma: A Propensity-Weighted Single-Center Cohort Study with Competing-Risk Analysis

Background/Objectives: Bevacizumab is widely used at recurrence in glioblastoma, but comparisons are complicated by multimodal treatment selection and progression assessment. We examined outcomes associated with a bevacizumab-containing first-recurrence strategy and explored the...

Online-Initiated Contact and Child Sexual Abuse Severity: A Forensic Cross-Sectional Study

Background/Objectives: Digital technologies have created new pathways through which perpetrators can initiate contact with children, yet evidence directly comparing child sexual abuse (CSA) cases according to the mode of first contact between the victim and the perpetrator remain...

Complex Adjoint Representations and Eigenvalue Theory for Cartan Number Matrices

Cartan numbers form a four-dimensional real algebra with a mixedhyperbolic--nilpotent structure and an indefinite quadratic character, whichprecludes the induced modulus from defining a norm and distinguishes theirmatrix theory from that of classical hypercomplex systems.In this...

Integrating UAV and Ground-Based Hyperspectral Remote Sensing to Evaluate Split Nitrogen Application Strategies in Durum Wheat

Nitrogen (N) is one of the most important nutrients influencing wheat growth, plant nutrition, and grain production. Appropriate timing of nitrogen application is essential to synchronize nutrient availability with crop demand. This study evaluated seven nitrogen management treat...

Predictive value of MON/HDL ratio on mortality at 1 and 6 months in patients over 65 years of age scheduled for hip fracture surgery

In this research, the aim was to evaluate the predictive value of the monocyte/high density lipoprotein (MON/HDL) ratio on mortality at 1 and 6 months in patients over 65 years of age scheduled for hip fracture surgery. A total of 129 patients aged 65 and older, who were surgical...

Effect of application delays on the dentin bond strength and interfacial morphology of different adhesive systems: an SEM analysis

This study evaluated the effect of application delays on the dentin bond strength of different adhesive systems used in composite restorations. Forty-five extracted human molars were randomly assigned to Clearfil SE Bond, G-Premio Bond, and Single Bond Universal ( n = 15). Each a...

Development and Validation of an IoF-Based Sensing Architecture for Microclimate Monitoring: Quantifying Spatial ET0 Bias in Mediterranean Viticulture

This study presents and validates a modular Internet of Farming (IoF) sensing architecture designed for high-fidelity microclimate monitoring to address the spatial biases in reference evapotranspiration (ET0) estimation for precision viticulture. Deployed in a Mediterranean vine...
