A Review of the Cognitive Effects of Disfluent Typography on Functional Reading

open access: yes, 2020
Recent debate has seen the proposition that difficult to read, or disfluent, typefaces can improve certain learning conditions. This is counterintuitive for typography where it is the aim to support reading acts by creating texts that are as clear and as

Simón Rodríguez and the sentimental roots of social republicanism

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, Volume 69, Issue 2, Page 471-482, April 2025.
Abstract In this article, I claim that Simón Rodríguez, a 19th‐century Venezuelan thinker, used and reconfigured Jean‐Jacques Rousseau's understanding of amour‐propre to construct a new political foundation for Latin America. He sought to channel it and other sentiments toward productive ends with a social education. In doing so, Rodríguez departs from

Regime‐Switching Density Forecasts Using Economists' Scenarios

open access: yesJournal of Forecasting, Volume 44, Issue 2, Page 833-845, March 2025.
ABSTRACT We propose an approach for generating macroeconomic density forecasts that incorporate information on multiple scenarios defined by experts. We adopt a regime‐switching framework in which sets of scenarios (“views”) are used as Bayesian priors on economic regimes. Predictive densities coming from different views are then combined by optimizing

Generalization of k.p theory for periodic perturbations [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. B 62, 1843 (2000), 2000
We extend standard k.p theory to take into account periodic perturbations which are rapidly oscillating with a wavelength of a few lattice constants. Our general formalism allows us to explicitly consider the Bragg reflections due to the perturbation-induced periodicity. As an example we calculate the effective masses in the lowest two conduction bands

Determining the Relative Contributions of Runoff, Coastal, and Compound Processes to Flood Exposure Across the Carolinas During Hurricane Florence

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Estimates of flood inundation generated by runoff and coastal flood processes during tropical cyclones (TCs) are needed to better understand how exposure varies inland and at the coast. While reduced‐complexity flood models have been previously shown to efficiently simulate TC flood processes across large regions, a lack of detailed validation

Typography-MNIST (TMNIST): an MNIST-Style Image Dataset to Categorize Glyphs and Font-Styles [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
We present Typography-MNIST (TMNIST), a dataset comprising of 565,292 MNIST-style grayscale images representing 1,812 unique glyphs in varied styles of 1,355 Google-fonts. The glyph-list contains common characters from over 150 of the modern and historical language scripts with symbol sets, and each font-style represents varying subsets of the total ...

Biological Responses to Ocean Acidification Are Changing the Global Ocean Carbon Cycle

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 39, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Increased oceanic uptake of CO2 due to rising anthropogenic emissions has caused lowered pH levels (ocean acidification) that are hypothesized to diminish biotic calcification and reduce the export of total alkalinity (AT) as carbonate minerals from the surface ocean or their burial in coastal sediments. This “CO2‐biotic calcification feedback”

Using Computational Approaches in Visual Identity Design: A Visual Identity for the Design and Multimedia Courses of Faculty of Sciences and Technology of University of Coimbra [PDF]

open access: yes10th Typography Meeting "Borders", 22--23 Oct. 2019, Matosinhos, Portugal, 2022
Computational approaches are beginning to be used to design dynamic visual identities fuelled by data and generative processes. In this work, we explore these computational approaches in order to generate a visual identity that creates bespoke letterings and images.

Ion Moment Variability Across Substorm Phases: Statistical Insights

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract In this study, we analyze 5 years of THEMIS and MMS mission data to statistically investigate the distribution of earthward and tailward ion flows during three substorm phases in Earth's magnetotail plasma sheet. The average flow patterns reveal primarily slow sunward and occasional fast tailward convection throughout all substorm phases. Most

The Slipperiness of Name: Biography and Gender in Australian Cultural Databases

open access: yesGender &History, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 411-428, March 2025.
Abstract In this article, we examine and historicise problems related to name and gender in biographical and cultural databases. Combining theoretical and computational approaches to onomastics, we identify contradictory naming conventions, intriguing patterns and distinct institutional vestiges in the recording and representation of artistic careers ...
