A Formal Method for Conceptual Fit Analysis

open access: yesComplex Systems Informatics and Modeling Quarterly, 2015
One criterion that has received little attention in Commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) systems selection is what we call conceptual fit. The criterion assesses the fit between the conceptual structure of the user requirements and that of a candidate system.

The GmGT‐2F, a trihelix transcription factor, regulates seed oil content by directly activating GmAGAL transcription in soybean

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In soybean, the trihelix transcription factor GmGT‐2F positively regulates the expression of the α‐galactosidase gene GmAGAL, thereby modulating seed oil content. The cyclophilin GmCYP2 interacts with GmGT‐2F and suppresses GmAGAL activation. Haplotype diversity analysis of GmGT‐2F, GmCYP2, and GmAGAL identified favorable haplotype combinations ...

Introducing the Archive of Pittsburgh Language and Speech, a Publicly Accessible, Richly Annotated Corpus of Sociolinguistic Interviews

open access: yesLanguage and Linguistics Compass, Volume 20, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT The troves of speech data that have driven an increasing orientation towards large‐scale methods in linguistics have been, for the most part, available only to closed teams of researchers and their collaborators. The Archive of Pittsburgh Language and Speech (APLS, https://apls.pitt.edu) is a new open data resource, consisting of nearly 46 h ...

Commercial-Off-the-Shelf (COTS): Doing It Right

open access: yes, 2008
In the twenty-first century, the United States will likely encounter a wide-range of threats, such as those posed by terrorists, rogue states and other non-state actors—all of whom are taking full advantage of globally available, high-tech commercial systems (e.g., from night vision devices, through secure cell phones, to satellite photos). At the same
