Unravelling Evolutionary Dynamics of Female Sexual Cannibalism and Male Reproductive Strategies in Spiders

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Sexual cannibalism (SC), where one mating partner consumes the other in the context of mating, is especially prevalent among spiders. However, the evolution of SC in spiders is still not fully understood. We review key hypotheses for SC and explore how female‐initiated SC has driven the evolution of various male counter‐adaptations to mitigate its ...

Corneal power modelling with OCT data – Thin and thick lens paraxial models versus raytracing

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Evaluating keratometric power with Zeiss index (PKZ), paraxial thick cornea power (Gullstrand [PG]) and power referenced to the front (PFV) and back vertex plane (PBV) and raytracing power (PR), and modelling the deviation from PKZ with a multivariable linear prediction model.

Constructing and generalizing multivariate copulas: a generalizing approach [PDF]

open access: yes
Recently, Liebscher (2006) introduced a general construction scheme of d-variate copulas which generalizes the Archimedean family. Similarly, Morillas (2005) proposed a method to obtain a variety of new copulas from a given d-copula.

Discrete imprecise copulas

open access: yesFuzzy Sets and Systems
In this paper, we study discrete quasi-copulas associated with imprecise copulas. We focus on discrete imprecise copulas that are in correspondence with the Alternating Sign Matrices and provide some construction techniques of dual pairs. Additionally, we show how to obtain (full-domain) self-dual imprecise copulas through patchwork techniques.

Learning gains from work placements: Innovative behavior and the role of emotional competencies

open access: yesEuropean Management Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The importance of innovative behavior (IB) has been well documented, and the engagement of employees in IB has become a tacit norm in many organizations. It has also been understood that IB is emotionally charged. However, little research has concentrated on whether higher education (HE) providers can foster IB in university students, and ...

Alternative Approaches for Estimating Highest‐Density Regions

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary Among the variety of statistical intervals, highest‐density regions (HDRs) stand out for their ability to effectively summarise a distribution or sample, unveiling its distinctive and salient features. An HDR represents the minimum size set that satisfies a certain probability coverage, and current methods for their computation require ...
