Squeezed‐Vacuum Bosonic Codes

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We introduce a family of bosonic quantum error‐correcting codes built as a rotation‐symmetric superposition of squeezed vacuum states, which promise protection against both loss and dephasing noise channels. The robustness of these “squeezed‐vacuum codes” arises from being arranged at evenly spaced angles in phase‐space, and simultaneously in ...

Mood and behavioural effects of social robots in conversation situations between nursing home residents and caregivers

open access: yesGerontechnology
Background: Social robots are known to improve mood and communication among older adults in care facilities. Although many studies have focused on robot’s effects on activities involving multiple participants, few have examined their impact in ...

A perspective from the Mesozoic: Evolutionary changes of the mammalian skull and their influence on feeding efficiency and high‐frequency hearing

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

The relationship between form and function of the carnivore mandible

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dietary morphology diversified extensively in Carnivoraformes (living Carnivora and their stem relatives) during the Cenozoic (the last 66 million years) as they evolved to capture, handle, and process new animal and plant diets. We used 3D geometric morphometrics, mechanical advantage, and finite element analysis to test the evolutionary ...

Avoiding disagreement in Romanian conversational discourse: the use of diminutives

open access: yesBucharest Working Papers in Linguistics, 2008
The paper examines the role of diminutives, a subclass of softeners, in Romanian conversational discourse as positive politeness devices for avoiding disagreement. Like many other pragmatic particles softeners are multifunctional.

T. rex cognition was T. rex‐like—A critical outlook on diverging views of the neurocognitive evolution in dinosaurs

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract A recent debate has emerged between Caspar et al. (2024) and Herculano‐Houzel (2023) on inferring extinct dinosaur cognition by estimating brain neuron counts. While thought‐provoking, the discussion largely overlooks the function of cognition, as well as partly neglects the difficulties involved in estimating neuron numbers, which according ...

Early Detection of Re-Identification Risk in Multi-Turn Dialogues via Entity-Aware Evidence Accumulation

open access: yesApplied Sciences
In multi-turn conversational AI, individually innocuous personally identifiable information (PII) fragments disclosed across successive turns can accumulate into a re-identification risk that no single utterance reveals on its own. Existing PII detectors

Body donor programs in Australia and New Zealand: Current status and future opportunities

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 301-328, March 2025.
Abstract Body donation is critical to anatomy study in Australia and New Zealand. Annually, more than 10,000 students, anatomists, researchers, and clinicians access tissue donated by local consented donors through university‐based body donation programs. However, little research has been published about their operations.

Charlotte Pommer: Resistance fighter and female pioneer of German anatomy

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines the biography and unique case of Charlotte Pommer (1914–2004), the only anatomist documented to have left the field during the Nazi period after encountering the regime's victims on the dissection table. While she is known for her resistance activities, newly presented documentation reveals her role as the provisional ...
