Multi-Criteria Technological and Cradle-to-Gate Sustainability Assessment of CEM II/A-S and CEM II/B-V Cements for Heavy Precast Concrete Production

The transition to lower-clinker binders in heavy precast concrete is constrained by the need to combine rapid production cycles, high early-age strength, self-compacting performance, durability and measurable environmental benefits. The scientific gap addressed in this study is t...

Embodied Intelligence-Driven Active Perception and Detection Strategy Learning for Display Defects in Electric Metering Devices

Electric metering display inspection is a critical task in power equipment maintenance, yet practical field images often suffer from reflection, blur, occlusion, low illumination, and subtle segment-level defects. Existing passive inspection methods usually rely on fixed-view ima...

Positivity of the k=1 Toeplitz Minors of the Riemann ξ-Coefficients

We prove strict positivity of the complete (k=1) family of consecutive Toeplitz minors associated with the Taylor coefficients of the Riemann (\xi)-function: D_{r,1} > 0 for every r >= 1. The proof rewrites (D_{r,1}) as a coefficient of the reciprocal generating function a_0 / G(...

Unimodal vs Multimodal Learning: A Systematic Evaluation of Fusion Strategies and Model Design for Molecular Property Prediction and Uncertainty Quantification

Abstract Accurate prediction of molecular properties is fundamental to environmental chemistry, yet remains challenging when experimental data are limited. Multimodal fusion provides a promising strategy for integrating complementary molecular representations; however, the relati...

Husserl must wait: The primacy of phenomenological practice

In this article, I critically examine the assumption that phenomenological practices must be understood exclusively in terms of applied philosophy. There is, I argue, a benefit starting in the practice itself when exploring its character. Here, I elaborate on several practices wi...

Quantum Probability Framework for Human Decision-Making Under Uncertainty — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Quantum probability replaces classical Kolmogorov probability in modeling human decision-making under uncertainty and conflict, using non-commutative operators and complex amplitudes. | MATH: Quantum probability framework: \( P(A) = |\langle \psi | M_A | \psi \rangle|^2...

A Physics-Informed Multi-Scale Diffusion Model Framework for Physical Field Imputation from Randomly Missing Data

Abstract Non-intrusive optical measurement techniques are widely used to obtain high-resolution pressure, temperature, and velocity fields, but they often suffer from random data loss caused by geometric obstruction, surface reflection, or illumination non-uniformity. Conventiona...

Foundation Model Forecasting of Headache Days in People With Persisting Postconcussion Symptoms

Modeling and analysis of ultra-dense networks under LOS and NLOS benchmark association scenarios using a stochastic-geometry approach

Ultra-dense networks (UDNs) have become a key enabler for meeting the capacity demands of 5G systems. However, their performance is strongly shaped by blockage effects and the resulting mixture of line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) propagation. This paper develops a...
