STGFormer: Spatio-Temporal Graph Transformer for Traffic Flow Prediction in Sparse-Sensing Scenarios

With the continuous improvement in intelligent transportation and data perception levels, determining how to achieve high-precision and generalizable traffic flow prediction based on historical traffic data has become an important issue in intelligent highway management. The Tran...

A foot in the door? The impact of a real-world deliberative process on citizens’ attitudes toward deliberative mini-publics (DMPs)

Abstract This study examines whether exposure to a deliberative mini-public (DMP) shapes citizens’ attitudes toward this specific form of democratic innovation. Using panel surveys conducted before and after Luxembourg’s 2022 Climate Assembly (Klima-Biergerrot, KBR), we compare t...

Gulf Pragmatism at a Crossroads: Al-Sabah Political Conduct and Kuwait Town's Foreign Policy toward Four Powers during the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries

This manuscript investigates pragmatism as an analytical lens for understanding the foreign policy of Kuwait Town during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, with particular attention to the political conduct of the ruling sheikhs of the al-Sabah family. It asks whether pragm...

Prediction of Tensile Property of Polycarbonate/Acrylonitrile‐Butadiene‐Styrene ( PC / ABS ) Blend Under UV ‐Accelerated Aging Based on Hybrid DT ‐ MLP Model

ABSTRACT Polycarbonate/acrylonitrile‐butadiene‐styrene (PC/ABS) blends are widely utilized engineering plastics known for their distinctive advantages in automotive, electronic, and electrical applications. However, their long‐term durability is significantly limited by their sus...

Spatiotemporal nonlocal behavior of fiber-reinforced thermodiffusive medium with rotation and temperature-dependent properties under three-phase-lag model

Purpose This study aims to predict the response in a fiber-reinforced thermodiffusive medium with rotation and temperature-dependent material characteristics on account of mechanical load. A mathematical framework of the governing equations is obtained by using three-phase-lag th...

Prevalence and Determinants of Sexually Transmitted Infections Among Thai Men Who Have Sex with Men Enrolled in National Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Program: A Real-World Cross-sectional Study

Background: Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) remain a major public health concern among men who have sex with men (MSM). This study estimated STI prevalence and associated factors among MSM enrolled in Thailand’s national pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) registry under the U...

The observer immersed in the system: autopoiesis, enaction and normative systems as emergent properties

ABSTRACT This White Paper extends the epistemological framework of the book "The Normative System Under the Lens of Complexity" (Cerboni, 2026) by integrating the paradigms of autopoiesis (Maturana and Varela, 1980) and enaction (Varela, Thompson, and Rosch, 1991). It argues that...

Pseudo defect guided meta calibration for few shot industrial defect segmentation

Few-shot industrial defect segmentation aims to localize unseen defects from only a few defect-free reference images, but remains challenging because no positive anomaly examples are available and defects are often subtle, irregular, and embedded in complex textures. We propose P...

LAB #909 NEUTRAL: LEDGER BENCH: Apply filter: Phase distance TIGHT (<=2deg) — improves win rate from 31.7% to 35.3% (+ — E8 Intelligence Research

IDEA: Adjustment made to the live model — verify against the backtests: Apply filter: Phase distance TIGHT (<=2deg) — improves win rate from 31.7% to 35.3% (+3.6pp, n=391) **SAME-WINDOW EFFECT:** Applying a phase distance filter of ≤2° would have rejected the EURUSD SHORT (loss)...

Factors Associated With Chest Tube Output Following Robotic Totally Endoscopic Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

Objective: Data on chest tube output following robotic totally endoscopic coronary artery bypass grafting (TECAB) are limited. We aimed to quantify chest tube drainage following robotic TECAB and identify factors associated with increased output. Methods: A total of 125 consecuti...

A Qualitative Study Identifying Behavioral Science Communication Strategies to Improve Client Engagement and HIV Prevention by Disease Interventionists

Background: Disease Intervention Specialists (DIS), essential implementers of HIV prevention efforts, have increasingly relied on learned empathy, rather than evidence-based strategies for client engagement. Given the mismatch between DIS demands and training, as well as demonstr...

Pandemonium free data for the JEFF-project

Abstract Reactor decay heat is due to the decay of both fission products and neutron activated fuel and reactor materials. At relatively short cooling times it is dominated by the beta decay of fission products. The calculation of the decay heat contribution of a particular fissi...

Assembling a haunted place: festival tourism and ghostly heritage in Taiwan
