A Morality Based Target Audience Analysis and Quantum Open System Interaction Model for Propaganda
Two people can view the same information but can take different actions. Most importantly, while thinking about moral and political issues, such as abortion, depending on the differences in the psychological systems, a perception of threat can arise. To exploit this aspect of the...

Impact of high-volume GNSS Radio Occultation data on the Navy's global numerical weather prediction
Abstract. This study assesses the impact of assimilating high-volume Radio Occultation (RO) data from the RO modeling experiment (ROMEX) on the Navy's global operational Naval Global Environment Model (NAVGEM). A series of observation system experiments were conducted, including...

Universal Birkhoff Method for Computing Extremals in the Elliptic Restricted Three-Body Problem
The computation of finite-thrust extremal arcs in the elliptic restricted three-body trajectory optimization problem is considered. Libration-point orbits are approximated to near-machine precision using a fast Fourier transform of the sampled values of the state vector at Chebys...

Moment-Net: A New Moment-Matching Neural Network for Pose Estimation
Determining a spacecraft's pose is an important task for autonomous navigation. Conventional AI systems rely on peak detection and look only for the most intense pixel. Consequently, the tracking image frequently suffers from peak flattening in the presence of blur or other distu...
