A connectionist account of the emergence of the literal-metaphorical-anomalous distinction in young children [PDF]
We present the first developmental computational model of metaphor comprehension, which seeks to relate the emergence of a distinction between literal and non-literal similarity in young children to the development of semantic representations.

Metaphor as categorisation: a connectionist implementation [PDF]
A key issue for models of metaphor comprehension is to explain how in some metaphorical comparison , only some features of B are transferred to A. The features of B that are transferred to A depend both on A and on B.

Capturing genetic variation in crop wild relatives: An evolutionary approach [PDF]
Crop wild relatives (CWRs) offer novel genetic resources for crop improvement. To assist in the urgent need to collect and conserve CWR germplasm, we advance here the concept of an “evolutionary” approach.

Grey-box model identification via evolutionary computing [PDF]
This paper presents an evolutionary grey-box model identification methodology that makes the best use of a priori knowledge on a clear-box model with a global structural representation of the physical system under study, whilst incorporating accurate ...

A nuclear‐pore‐inspired nested dual‐loop architecture redistributes electromagnetic energy through coupled transport, confinement, and dissipation pathways. Integrated with Co/Fe3O4 dual‐magnetic composites and topology optimization, the 11‐mm‐thick absorber delivers continuous 2–40 GHz attenuation, raises finite‐band structural utilization to 82%, and

This study elucidates the microstructural evolution at the material interface of Ni‐plated plain‐weave carbon fiber fabric following vacuum heat treatment at 500°C–900°C under different current densities, as well as the mechanism underlying the synergistic enhancement of electromagnetic shielding and ductility.

Herein, a pure deep blue room‐temperature phosphorescence (415 nm) with lifetime up to 2.45 s is successfully achieved by a covalently crosslinking purely organic material based on boric acid (BA) and 3,5‐dicarboxyphenylboronic acid (BOP) through a simple dehydration reaction, which can be adjusted precisely by supramolecular coordination with ...

On the Role of Preprocessing and Memristor Dynamics in Reservoir Computing for Image Classification
ABSTRACT Reservoir computing (RC) is an emerging recurrent neural network architecture that has attracted growing attention for its low training cost and modest hardware requirements. Memristor‐based circuits are particularly promising for RC, as their intrinsic dynamics can reduce network size and parameter overhead in tasks such as time‐series ...

The Collective Power of Bacteria as a Blueprint for Emergent Intelligence
Small cells, powerful collectives. Bacteria demonstrate how sophisticated behaviors can emerge from many simple individuals working together. We explore the remarkable world of bacterial communities and the mechanisms that underpin their complex emergent behaviors, enabling impressive adaptability, robustness, and responsiveness to changing ...

The Made‐in‐Africa Evaluation framework: A decolonial approach to program evaluation
Abstract The Made in Africa Evaluation (MAE) framework is a decolonial approach to program evaluation developed by African evaluators over the past 14 years. MAE may be appropriate to community psychologists who practice program evaluation or conduct research in Africa, but little is known about its implementation.
