Genetic Diversity and Impacts of Stocking on Cyprinus carpio Populations in Türkiye: Insights From Mitochondrial, Nuclear, and Microsatellite Markers

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding genetic diversity and population structure is essential for the sustainable management of widely stocked freshwater species such as common carp (Cyprinus carpio). In this study, we conducted a comprehensive genetic assessment of C.

Human Destiny and the Natural Law in St Maximus the Confessor: A Contribution to Orthodox Christian Humanism

Modern Theology, EarlyView.
Abstract Orthodox Christian theology in general prides itself on bearing the mantle of patristic thought. Orthodox theological anthropology is no different, often drawing on Greek patristic sources in presenting its vision of the human being. Yet Orthodox anthropology can also broadly be categorized as personalist in ways that are not necessarily so ...

An Robust Secure Blockchain-Based Hierarchical Asynchronous Federated Learning Scheme for Internet of Things

IEEE Access
Combining the Internet of Things (IoT) and federated learning (FL) is a trend. In addition to privacy risks, a long-term operating IoT always faces a hierarchical environment, heterogeneous nodes, and occasional communication and node failures ...

Engineered Identity: Albanian Nationalism and the Limits of Established Nationalism Theories

Nations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article analyses the development of Albanian nationalism as a test case for assessing the explanatory reach of three major approaches to the study of nationalism: modernist, constructivist and historical‐comparative. Rather than privileging a single theoretical framework, the article places these approaches in dialogue, treating them as ...

DRT-PBFT: A Novel PBFT-Optimized Consensus Algorithm for Blockchain Based on Dynamic Reputation Tree

Future Internet
While the practical Byzantine fault tolerance (PBFT) consensus algorithm provides excellent theoretical fault tolerance, its performance in practical blockchain applications is often constrained by high communication overhead, especially in scenarios ...

Decentralized Federated Learning for Wind Turbine Bearing Prognostics Under Data Scarcity and Statistical Heterogeneity

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 8, Page 3674-3696, August 2026.
This paper proposes a decentralized peer‐to‐peer federated learning framework for wind turbine bearing remaining useful life prediction, introducing a virtual client paradigm in which statistical health indicators serve as independent feature‐level clients—enabling privacy‐preserving collaborative prognostics from a single physical asset under ...

Secure Decentralized Key Relaying via Random Walks in Dynamic Semi‐Trusted QKD Networks

Advanced Quantum Technologies, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) provides point‐to‐point, information‐theoretically secure session keys, but distance limitations require trusted relays between remote parties. Can quantum keys be relayed without trusting every intermediate node or depending on a central controller?

ARGUS: Augmented Reasoning Over Multi-Modal Text and Transaction Streams for Robust Black–Litterman Portfolio Optimization

IEEE Access
Black-Litterman portfolio optimization is bottlenecked by three input estimation failures: noisy expected returns, unstable covariance matrices that miss crisis-period regime shifts, and qualitative investment mandates that resist mathematical ...

Beyond Brunhild: reassessing women in the Fredegar Chronicle

Early Medieval Europe, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 458-479, August 2026.
Scholarly consideration of women in the seventh‐century Fredegar chronicle has long been dominated by the author’s hostility towards Brunhild, queen of Austrasia. Statistical analysis of Latin world chronicles before ad 900, however, shows that Fredegar’s representation of women was unusually high within this tradition.
