Evaluation Bias in Cross-Context Generalization of EEG-Based Affective Computing: A Simulation Study

Cross-context accuracy in electroencephalography (EEG)-based emotion recognition is usually reported without the model-selection rule, chance-level test, or reliability reference needed to interpret it. We quantify the consequences in simulations with known ground truth and on re...

Fabrication of superhydrophobic and superoleophilic copper oxide nanostructures without organic modifiers for oil–water separation

Abstract Superhydrophobic and superoleophilic hierarchical urchin-like copper oxide powders were synthesized by a facile one-step method without the use of low-surface-energy modifiers. The selective wettability of the powders toward water and oil makes them suitable for oil adso...

Eriophyoid (Trombidiformes: Eriophyoidea) mite species associated with boxes worldwide with a new record of Eriophyes canestrinii (Nalepa, 1890) from Iran

Arbabi, Masoud, Lotfollahi, Parisa, Abaii, Mansour, Alazmai, Mohammad, Baradaran, Parvaneh (2017): Eriophyoid (Trombidiformes: Eriophyoidea) mite species associated with boxes worldwide with a new record of Eriophyes canestrinii (Nalepa, 1890) from Iran. Persian Journal of Acarol...

Existence analysis of nonlinear q-fractional differential inclusions with p-Laplacian operators and an aerospace vibration-modeling illustration

This paper investigates a coupled system of nonlinear q -fractional differential inclusions involving nested p -Laplacian operators and nonlocal boundary conditions. The problem is formulated in a multivalued setting, where the nonlinear inclusion depends on the state vector and...

One new Aculus species (Acari: Trombidiformes: Eriophyidae) on Glycyrrhiza glabra from Lorestan province, Iran

During the study on eriophyid mites associated to Fabaceae plants in Naghare village, Lorestan province (Iran), one new Aculus species (Acari: Eriophyidae), A. lorestaniensis sp. nov., was found on Glycyrrhiza glabra L. and herein described and illustrated. This is the first Acul...

Navigating the promise and perils of artificial intelligence in primary education: insights from the Iranian context

Purpose This study critically investigates the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into Iranian primary education, highlighting both its transformative potential and context-specific challenges within a centralized and resource-constrained system. Design/methodology/appro...

Plant growth-promoting microorganisms enhance maize performance under salinity stress: a comprehensive meta-analysis of morphological, physiological, and biochemical responses

Salinity stress severely limits global maize ( Zea mays L.) productivity by disrupting plant growth, physiology, and yield formation. Plant growth-promoting microorganisms (PGPMs), including bacteria and mycorrhizal fungi, have been widely investigated as sustainable tools for im...

Two new Eriophyid species (Acari: Eriophyoidea) from Maragheh County, Iran

During the study of Eriophyoid mites fauna of Maragheh region, East Azerbaijan, Iran, two new species were found, described, and illustrated: Aceria maraghensis Lotfollahi et Yousefnezhad sp. nov. vagrant on Rubia tinctorum L. (Rubiaceae) in Ghiyamatabad village and Thamnacus pla...

Symptom epidemiology, demographic correlates, and differentiation between cognitive disengagement syndrome symptoms and ADHD symptoms in a large nonprobability sample of Iranian adolescents and adults

Cognitive disengagement syndrome (CDS) is an emerging cognitive-attentional construct characterized by excessive daydreaming, mental slowness, drowsiness, and reduced engagement with external demands. Although CDS symptoms are substantially associated with attention-deficit/hyper...

Iron oxide nanoparticles mitigate salinity stress in Ziziphora clinopodioides by enhancing growth, ion homeostasis, and essential oil content

Salinity is a major environmental constraint limiting the growth, physiological performance, and productivity of medicinal plants. This study investigated the effects of iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe₂O₃-NPs) and bulk ferric oxide on growth, ionic balance, oxidative stress, photosy...

Edaphic and environmental factors shaping essential oil profiles and morphological variation in wild Carum carvi L. populations from northwestern Iran

Wild caraway ( Carum carvi L.) populations in northwestern Iran remain largely uncharacterized despite their potential as high-value genetic resources for essential oil (EO) production. This study aimed to evaluate the morphological and EO composition diversity of eight wild popu...
