Predicting bifurcations in Moore–Penrose continuation using a CNN–LSTM model

Numerical continuation methods are widely used to follow solution branches of nonlinear systems, but their performance can deteriorate near bifurcation points, where correction iterations may become difficult to achieve convergence and branch-selection issues may arise. In this w...

State-of-health-coupled power sharing in a hierarchical control framework for battery-supercapacitor hybrid energy storage in solar-powered microgrids

Battery-supercapacitor hybrid energy storage systems (HESSs) are widely used in PV-based DC microgrids to compensate renewable intermittency and support DC-bus voltage regulation. However, many existing power-sharing strategies do not directly account for the evolving health cond...

Tell me what you read, and I will tell you what you remember: Evidence for personalized embeddings in memory modelling

Computational models of memory have achieved considerable success by formalizing how traces are encoded, cued, and retrieved. However, the role that individual linguistic experience plays in shaping representational structure has been relatively understudied. Where the issue has...

Ultra-high dimensional confounder selection algorithm comparison, with application to radiomics data

Radiomics is an emerging area of medical imaging data analysis for diseases such as cancer. It involves the conversion of digital medical images into mineable ultra-high dimensional data, where, the number of extracted radiomics features is much larger than the number of observat...

Secure network forensic investigation framework with elliptic curve cryptography-based encryption and enhanced message digest integrity verification

Forensic evidence can be easily altered or disclosed to those who are not authorized, which reduces the evidence integrity, reliability, and admissibility in cyber forensic investigation. Current forensic approaches are mostly concerned with evidence collection and analysis, and...

Association of Nutrient-, Food-, and Lifestyle-Based Oxidative Balance Scores with Liver Enzymes in Older Adults Across Cardiovascular-Risk Groups

Diet and lifestyle are modifiable determinants of oxidative balance through their influence on exposure to antioxidant and pro-oxidant factors. The oxidative balance score (OBS) is a composite index that reflects the balance between these exposures, with higher scores indicating...

Cognitively engaging sedentary activities are associated with better cognitive function in middle-aged adults: a cross-sectional study using the 1970 British Cohort Study

Abstract Background Prior research examining sedentary time and cognitive function has produced mixed findings with limited attention to specific types of sedentary behavior. This cross-sectional study tested the hypothesis that more cognitively active sedentary behaviors (playin...

Declarative Causal Inference and Counterfactual Reasoning via SQL-Dialect Operators

Relational databases power high-stakes decisions in lending, healthcare, and justice, yet SQL lacks native constructs for causal and counterfactual reasoning. Prior SQL-based causal systems address parts of this gap but do not unify treatment-effect estimation with counterfactual...
