Social and emotional pathways to shame reduction: An RCT with preservice teachers

open access: yesBritish Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Shame is an unpleasant, activating emotion that has been shown to undermine learners' motivation and achievement and identity development in mathematics education. Recent studies have implemented positive psychology interventions (PPIs) to reduce preservice teachers' shame in mathematics, with promising quantitative outcomes ...

Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

Aggregation and the Structure of Value

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Roughly, the view I call “Additivism” sums up value across time and people. Given some standard assumptions, I show that Additivism follows from two principles. The first says that how lives align in time cannot, in itself, matter. The second says, roughly, that a world cannot be better unless it is better within some period or another.

Different Methods of Embodied Cognition in Pedagogy and its Effectiveness in Student Learning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The Mathematical Ideas Analysis hypothesizes that abstract mathematical reasoning is unconsciously organized and integrated with sensory-motor experience. Basic research testing movement, language, and perception during math problem solving supports this

Existence of periodic solutions of the FitzHugh-Nagumo equations for an explicit range of the small parameter

open access: yes, 2016
The FitzHugh-Nagumo model describing propagation of nerve impulses in axon is given by fast-slow reaction-diffusion equations, with dependence on a parameter $\epsilon$ representing the ratio of time scales.

Active learning strategies in business and information & communication technology engineering higher education: A scoping review

open access: yesReview of Education, Volume 14, Issue 2, August 2026.
Abstract Active learning (AL) has emerged as a pedagogical response to diverse educational challenges across multiple disciplines. This scoping review maps the terrain of AL implementation patterns, examining AL practices in Business Education, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Engineering, Mathematics, and Statistics from 2015 until the ...

Solving rank-constrained semidefinite programs in exact arithmetic

open access: yes, 2016
We consider the problem of minimizing a linear function over an affine section of the cone of positive semidefinite matrices, with the additional constraint that the feasible matrix has prescribed rank.

On the Foundational Arguments of Sufficient Dimension Reduction

open access: yesWIREs Computational Statistics, Volume 18, Issue 2, June 2026.
Contemporary Sufficient Dimension Reduction, a versatile method for extracting material information from data, can serve as a preprocessor for classical modeling and inference, or as a standalone theory that leads directly to statistical inference. ABSTRACT Sufficient dimension reduction (SDR) refers to supervised methods of dimension reduction that ...

On the Scope of the Universal-Algebraic Approach to Constraint Satisfaction

open access: yes, 2012
The universal-algebraic approach has proved a powerful tool in the study of the complexity of CSPs. This approach has previously been applied to the study of CSPs with finite or (infinite) omega-categorical templates, and relies on two facts.
