A Numerical Alternative to MR Thermometry for Safety Validation of Multi‐Channel RF Transmit Coils
ABSTRACT Purpose This study proposes a numerical technique to estimate peak local specific absorption rate (SAR) uncertainty of multi‐channel RF coils during the process of safety validation as an alternative to experimental temperature and electric‐field measurements, and demonstrates its use to enable human studies at 10.5 T.

Broke Autocrats, Broken Elections: Trade Shocks and Electoral Fraud in Autocracies
ABSTRACT We argue that when terms‐of‐trade (ToT) shocks reduce resource rents, autocrats lose the fiscal capacity to sustain loyalty through patronage and increasingly rely on electoral manipulation as a survival strategy. We present a simple model in which rents finance patronage in normal times, while adverse shocks reduce the effectiveness of ...

From Lotic to Lentic: SWOT Characterizes Seasonal Hydrodynamics in the Lake‐River Continuum
Abstract The interface between rivers and lakes forms a unique hydraulic continuum, in which lotic and lentic regimes dynamically interact and transition between each other. A common expression of this lake‐river continuum (LARIC) is reservoir backwater, where water surface gradually rises from the reservoir pool upstream to the free‐flowing river ...

We propose a residual‐based adversarial‐gradient moving sample (RAMS) method for scientific machine learning that treats samples as trainable variables and updates them to maximize the physics residual, thereby effectively concentrating samples in inadequately learned regions.

Ordered probit regression is used as a latent trait model, with age at death estimated from a Gompertz distribution. Combined with Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling, this approach eliminates the need for reference priors for transition ages or population parameters.
