Daily active-mobility green space exposure and subjective health: An age-comparative perspective

A growing body of research measures mobility-based green space exposure using GPS trajectories, yet many studies overlook travel modes, though active travel both increases physical activity and entails direct contact with surrounding greenery. While recent work has examined links...

A hybrid water cloud model for leaf area index estimation using machine learning and physically based model derived Sentinel-2 vegetation descriptors

Monitoring crop health effectively requires robust and continuous estimation of Leaf Area Index (LAI). This study reports on the development of a hybrid Water Cloud Model (WCM) in which machine learning and physically based model derived Sentinel-2 vegetation descriptors are used...

Intelligent navigation of humanoid robots using modified African vulture-inspired fuzzy control

Path planning and navigation control of humanoid robots in uneven and unstructured environments are challenging due to terrain uncertainty, stability requirements, and real-time decision-making constraints. This study presents an intelligent path-planning and navigation technique...

Symmetry-Aware Simulation and Modeling of Noise-Robust Electric Load Forecasting Using Hybrid MMPF-NARX and GA/PSO

Reliable electric load forecasting is an important engineering problem for power-system planning, grid stability, and mission-critical energy management. This paper presents a symmetry-aware simulation and modeling framework for medium-range electric load forecasting under noisy...

LAB #882 NEUTRAL: TG AUTO: New edge proposed: consecutive_failures_reversal — E8 Intelligence Research

IDEA: AUTO-FORWARDED from the Telegram/breakthrough stream (#637621, division=research, agent=gtx_scout): { "name": "consecutive_failures_reversal", "source": "George Soros's reflexivity theory / Al Brooks trend failure patterns", "type": "entry_engine", "rule": "Enter short afte...

Enhancing lung cancer subtype classification using histopathology foundation models in weakly-supervised and unsupervised learning frameworks

The lack of demographically diverse datasets remains a major barrier to the deployment of computational pathology models in real-world clinical settings. To address this gap, we introduce and release the Indian Pathology Dataset for Lung Cancer (IPD-LUNG), a curated histopatholog...

A Laplace-transform based goodness-of-fit test for exponentiality under Type-II censoring

We propose a Laplace-transform-based goodness-of-fit test for the exponential distribution under Type-II censored data. The test is constructed using the conditional empirical Laplace transform of observed failures and compares it with the theoretical Laplace transform under expo...

Fractal Judas survivor: EURJPY DAILY rung — E8 Intelligence Research

Configuration survived the two-half honesty test on 2 years of M1 data. Rung=DAILY, cost model=ecn, entry=wick, SL buffer=2.0 pips, TP=full range, sweep depth filter=0.0, tide alignment=week_against. 174 trades, +3.00 pips/trade expectancy after costs, profit factor 1.80 (year 1)...

Numerical Investigation of Drilling Process for Complex Polar Ice Interlayers: An F-DEM Study

Subglacial drilling through polar ice–rock transitional zones is frequently hindered by severe load fluctuations and instability induced by strong formation heterogeneity. This study investigates the coupled drilling mechanics across pure ice, an ice–rock mixture, and bedrock usi...

Polylogarithmic Genus Does Not Increase the Power of Constant-Width Polynomial-Size Circuits

Allender, Datta, and Roy claimed that constant-width polynomial-size Boolean circuits of polylogarithmic orientable genus compute exactly ACC^0. The published proof of the upper bound was later found to contain an incorrect topological assertion, and Eric Allender subsequently li...

Quality is in the Eye of the Beholder: A Quality Model rethinking VET through the Eyes of Gen Z Learners - Individualization, Digitalization, and Meaningful Work

Abstract As Generation Z (Gen Z) enters vocational education, their distinct expectations and digital fluency present new challenges for dual vocational education and training (VET). While these issues are frequently discussed in public discourse, empirical evidence remains scarc...

Inaugural editorial: Towards understanding, managing and conserving entomological diversity

We are excited to announce the launch of npj Entomology, a fully open-access journal in the Nature Portfolio that is dedicated to rapidly publishing high-quality, cutting-edge research in all aspects of entomology and arachnology. As Editor-in-Chief, I am deeply honoured to launc...

Monitoring viral SARS-CoV-2 spike glycans using silicon carbide nanotubes as optical biosensors: a quantum simulation

Abstract In this paper, the sensitivity of nanotube-based nano sensors composed of silicon carbide to viral environments have been investigated. For this purpose, we designed various SiCNTs and calculated the electronic properties of each. The effects of N-linked and O-linked vir...

Beyond the surveillance threat: when and how human-AI collaboration mitigates or magnifies employee privacy concerns

Does human–AI collaboration necessarily heighten employees’ concerns for information privacy? Drawing on cognitive appraisal theory, this study challenges deterministic accounts of AI and privacy by proposing a dual-appraisal mechanism. Using a mixed-methods design (time-lagged s...

Composite EEG biomarker modeling and energy–accuracy trade-off analysis for multi-patient seizure detection

Abstract Reliable cross-patient seizure detection remains challenging because EEG characteristics vary considerably between patients. To address this problem, we proposed a compact composite feature termed the Seizure Intensity Index (SII) together with an extended representation...

GFN1-xTB-AssistedMachine Learning for ElectronicStructure Screening of Metal–Organic Frameworks

Abstract Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are versatile materials with tunable crystal structures, morphologies, and chemistries, offering diverse physical and chemical properties. Although typically electrically insulating, specific combinations of organic and inorganic component...
