Adaptation for Mitigation [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2014 This paper develops a two-region (North and South) dynamic model in which regional stocks of effective labor are negatively influenced by the global stock of pollution. By characterizing the equilibrium strategy of each region we show that the regions’ best responses can be strategic complements through a dynamic complementarity effect.

Career adaptability profiles and their relationship to adaptivity and adapting [PDF]
Journal of Vocational Behavior, 2015 Research on career adaptability predominantly uses variable-centered approaches that focus on the average effects in terms of the predictors and outcomes within a given sample. Extending this research, the present paper used a person-centered approach to determine whether subgroups with distinct adaptability profiles in terms of concern, control ...

Visual adaptation to thin and fat bodies transfers across identity [PDF]
, 2012 Visual perception is highly variable and can be influenced by the surrounding world. Previous research has revealed that body perception can be biased due to adaptation to thin or fat body shapes.

Logical Methods in Computer Science, 2012 We propose the concept of adaptable processes as a way of overcoming the limitations that process calculi have for describing patterns of dynamic process evolution. Such patterns rely on direct ways of controlling the behavior and location of running processes, and so they are at the heart of the adaptation capabilities present in many modern ...

Maximum Classifier Discrepancy for Unsupervised Domain Adaptation [PDF]
2018 IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2017 In this work, we present a method for unsupervised domain adaptation. Many adversarial learning methods train domain classifier networks to distinguish the features as either a source or target and train a feature generator network to mimic the ...

On the Adaptiveness of Quicksort [PDF]
BRICS Report Series, 2004 Quicksort was first introduced in 1961 by Hoare. Many variants have been developed, the best of which are among the fastest generic sorting algorithms available, as testified by the choice of Quicksort as the default sorting algorithm in most programming libraries. Some sorting algorithms are adaptive, i.e.

Sequestration of CO2 by red mud with flue gas using response surface methodology
Carbon Management, 2021 Energy demand is projected to increase throughout the globe in near future which necessitates the development of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies to avoid the harmful impacts of climate change.

FDA: Fourier Domain Adaptation for Semantic Segmentation [PDF]
Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2020 We describe a simple method for unsupervised domain adaptation, whereby the discrepancy between the source and target distributions is reduced by swapping the low-frequency spectrum of one with the other. We illustrate the method in semantic segmentation,

Forests and climate change in Latin America: Linking adaptation and mitigation in projects and policies [PDF]
, 2010 Integrating adaptation and mitigation in forestry projects and policies would maximise local cobenefits and contribute to increased capacity to cope with the risks associated with climate change. Latin America has had some preliminary experience with the
