Consequences and causes of corruption: What do we know from a cross-section of countries? [PDF]
Data on the perceived levels of corruption from a cross-section of countries has been introduced fruitfully into recent empirical research. This chapter reviews studies on the consequences and causes of corruption.

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.In dynamic driving scenarios, the proposed approach ensures only temporally aligned sensor inputs to make driving decisions, preventing false activations. By enabling selective hardware‐level learning, it achieves fast, reliable responses under noisy conditions.

Stochastic‐MTJ Sampler Arrays for In‐Array Monte–Carlo Estimation
Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.A low‐energy‐barrier magnetic tunnel junction array is operated as a probability‐domain sampler: each cell's random switching, programmed through a shared digital‐to‐analog converter, makes the per‐column multiply–accumulate an unbiased Monte–Carlo expectation estimator that returns both a mean and a calibrated uncertainty.

Private-to-private corruption [PDF]
The cases of corruption reported by the media tend almost always to involve a private party (a citizen or a corporation) that pays, or promises to pay, money to a public party (a politician or a public official, for example) in order to obtain an ...

Physical Unclonable Functions From Microwave Metasurface Fingerprints
Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.Nominally identical metasurfaces fabricated through standard PCB processes inevitably contain microscopic fabrication imperfections. This work demonstrates that these unavoidable electromagnetic deviations can serve as unique physical unclonable fingerprints for wireless authentication.

Corruption in Developing Countries [PDF]
Recent years have seen a remarkable expansion in economists’ ability to measure corruption. This, in turn, has led to a new generation of well-identified, microeconomic studies.

Exploring the links between corruption and growth [PDF]
Corruption is a widespread phenomenon, but relatively little is confidently known about its macroeconomic consequences. This paper explicitly models the transmission channels through which corruption indirectly affects growth.
