What is scientific about social science? The complexity of measuring human behavior

open access: yesMètode Science Studies Journal: Annual Review, 2015
The social and behavioral sciences share many characteristics with the «hard» or «natural» sciences, including a commitment to the systematic analysis of empirical data, whether quantitative or qualitative.

Colloquy with Steven Van de Walle on trust in Public Administration

open access: yesChurch, Communication and Culture, 2020
This interview with Professor Steven Van de Walle was framed by the fact that it was conducted during the lockdown caused by COVID-19, a crisis that has shown a globally shared vulnerability and that might be challenging the trustworthiness of ...

Partisanship, Ideology, and Selective Exposure: A Longitudinal Analysis of Media Consumption in Spain (2008–2019)

open access: yesMedia and Communication, 2023
The literature on selective exposure has shown that ideology and voting govern media consumption decisions, but longitudinal studies are still scarce.

A Mathematical Theory of Communication

open access: yesBell System Technical Journal, 1948
In this final installment of the paper we consider the case where the signals or the messages or both are continuously variable, in contrast with the discrete nature assumed until now. To a considerable extent the continuous case can be obtained through a limiting process from the discrete case by dividing the continuum of messages and signals into a ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

The Future of Communication Theory and Research

open access: yes, 2019
In this chapter, the authors identify current issues in communication research and theory that merit attention. Increased specialization, a commitment to intersubjectivity of meaning and rigor, the need to examine extant theories and further develop ...

Emotion recognition of multimodal physiological signals based on optimized LSTSVM

open access: yesDianzi Jishu Yingyong, 2018
The least squares twin support vector machine(LSTSVM) is used for emotion recognition. The penalty coefficients,and kernel function parameter of LSTSVM model are difficult to determine, so the modified firefly algorithm(MFA) is used to select the best ...

Learned Block Iterative Shrinkage Thresholding Algorithm for Photothermal Super Resolution Imaging

open access: yesSensors, 2022
Block-sparse regularization is already well known in active thermal imaging and is used for multiple-measurement-based inverse problems. The main bottleneck of this method is the choice of regularization parameters which differs for each experiment.

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...
