Social relationships promote access to food and information in wild jackdaws
Abstract Many animals form differentiated social relationships that can influence fitness, but the mechanisms behind these benefits are often unclear. How does the presence of social partners during foraging enhance access to food or information? Might individuals also incur shor...

Improving patient-reported outcome measure scoring in shoulder trials
Aims Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) underpin orthopaedic trials by capturing pain and function from the patient’s perspective. Traditionally, PROMs such as the Oxford Shoulder Score (OSS) are scored using classical test theory (CTT), which assumes equal item contributi...

Knowledge Based AI Technologies
Heuristic algorithms are often used in self-driving autonomous cars to determine the shortest distance or optimal path from one point to another (Braik, et. al, 2021, p. 2524). Heuristics are problem-solving methods that use practical approaches and shortcuts to produce solutions...

Cluster-aware imputation: a hybrid XGBoost-based model for missing data
Abstract The fast growth of high-dimensional datasets in computational biology, industrial IoT, and socio-economic research has made the issue of missing data more challenging. This common problem reduces statistical power and introduces systematic bias in later machine learning...

Charge-Carrier Behavior and Molecular Interface Engineering in Perovskite Light-Emitting Diodes
Abstract Molecular interface engineering has become increasingly important for improving the efficiency and stability of perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs). Although highly emissive perovskite materials have advanced rapidly, their translation into high-performance devices...

The transition current associated with the N(1520) longitudinal amplitude is examined using a Patterson-function approach applied directly to empirical GC transition form-factor data. Because the reconstruction is based solely on experimental input, the resulting spatial distribu...

A Detailed Chemical Kinetic Model for the Thermal Destruction of Perfluorobutanesulfonic Acid
Abstract Perfluorobutanesulfonic acid (PFBS), a member of the per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) family, poses significant environmental and health risks due to its persistence and resistance to degradation. Understanding its thermal decomposition pathways is critical for...

Hubble Tension Solved + Big Bang Origin Solved: Environment-Dependent H0(Xlite) = KR + s·Xlite We propose a clean analytic resolution of BOTH Hubble tension and Big Bang singularity where Hubble constant is not universal but depends on local environment density Xlite. BIG BANG SO...

Purpose This study aims to examine how artificial intelligence (AI) readiness and digital pedagogical competence (DPC) are associated with lecturers’ perceptions of digital environmental governance innovation (DEGI) and perceived environmental performance in higher education inst...

Fear of humans mediates spatiotemporal interactions between endangered large Asian felids
Abstract Species competitive interactions influence carnivore demography. Humans, as global ‘super predators,’ may mediate interactions among sympatric carnivores, although the effects of ecological fear on these interactions remain less understood. We used two years of camera tr...

Abstract Coral reefs that surround volcanic islands are continually influenced by run-off carrying remobilized volcanogenic sediments. Although unaltered volcanic ash is known to supply trace metals that enhance coral holobiont productivity, the impacts of long-term exposure to w...

Abstract Hexapoda comprises the hyperdiverse insects and three cryptic, early-diverging lineages, Protura, Collembola, and Diplura, that are key to understanding the hexapod body pattern but remain extremely rare as fossils. Here, we report the earliest dipluran, Sinojapyx gigant...

On linear global instability at the leading edge of a short compression corner with large ramp angle
Abstract Global linear stability analysis of Mach 3 flow over a short compression corner is investigated at Reynolds number 11200 and Knudsen number O(10−4), for the first time using both kinetic theory direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) and continuum Navier–Stokes–Fourier (dir...

Antibody-Mimicking Nanocluster Ameliorates Osteoporosis in Preclinical Model
Abstract Osteoporosis occurs due to the synergistic effect of increased bone resorption and decreased bone formation. However, a therapeutic approach that can simultaneously inhibit osteoclastic resorption and promote osteogenic activity directly is still lacking. Growing evidenc...

This preprint investigates conditional mechanisms selecting three in two distinct settings: internal layers in a localized structure and finite clusters on a plane. For the layered case, a three-component field projected onto three p-type vessel modes links vessel geometry to cub...

Abstract Plants are repeatedly offered as the strongest case that organisms can inherit acquired experience without a change in DNA sequence — a claim that brushes against more than a century of Weismannian orthodoxy. DNA methylation, small-RNA pathways, and chromatin marks can b...

Care Responsibility, Participation and Consultation in Japanese Public Texts on Ageing
Drawing on three publicly available Japanese primary-source texts, this paper examines how these texts describe public arrangements’ responses to older people’s wishes, the efforts of those providing support, and the ways in which relevant people participate in consultation. The...
