Bidirectional Multi-Scale Cross-Modal Attention Network for SAR–Multispectral Semantic Segmentation
Fusing synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and multispectral (MS) imagery for semantic segmentation remains challenging because of cross-modal semantic discrepancies, cloud-induced contamination, incomplete integration of complementary details, and the loss of spatial information duri...

Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infection Prevention Practices in US Hospitals
Importance Catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) remains a common and morbid health care–associated infection. Although evidence-based prevention strategies are well established, the degree to which hospitals adopt and sustain these practices over time and whether t...

Same‐Sex Marriage in Times of Political Uncertainty: Evidence from Brazil
Abstract This research note examines how political polarization and the fragility of same‐sex marriage rights in Brazil shaped marriage patterns over the past decade. Using civil registry data from 2013 to 2023, we focus on presidential election periods as moments of political un...

SpecEdge: Adaptive Speculative Decoding and Quantization Dynamics for Edge Small Language Models
Auto-regressive sequence generation in modern transformer language models is severely memory-bandwidth bound, yielding low arithmetic intensity on resource-constrained edge devices. While speculative decoding mitigates this bottleneck by utilizing a compact draft model to propose...

A Speculative Hypothesis About Light, Spacetime, and Propulsion
Abstract This note records a speculative hypothesis concerning the fundamental nature of light, spacetime, and propulsion. Light propagates through vacuum at the invariant speed c, and modern physics describes photons as excitations of the electromagnetic field. The present hypot...

Coming to Terms with the Need for Meaning: How an Existential Demand Awakens in Camus’s L’Étranger
Abstract Many critics have argued that Meursault, the protagonist of Albert Camus’s L’Étranger , is profoundly aware that life is absurd. In this paper, I argue that this is partially correct: although Meursault believes that life lacks meaning (the existential lack), he has also...
