Functional Form of Nonmanipulable Social Choice Functions with Two Alternatives

open access: yesMathematics, 2021
We propose a new functional form characterization of binary nonmanipulable social choice functions on a universal domain and an arbitrary, possibly infinite, set of agents.

Human intellectual disability genes form conserved functional modules in Drosophila. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2013
Intellectual Disability (ID) disorders, defined by an IQ below 70, are genetically and phenotypically highly heterogeneous. Identification of common molecular pathways underlying these disorders is crucial for understanding the molecular basis of ...

The Inverse Lewbel Demand System

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, 1994
A new model of consumer preferences is introduced. It is appropriate for modeling perishable commodities which are produced with a lag, where it is reasonable to assume the market-level quantities are fixed by previously made production decisions.

A Functional Form for Fine Sediment Interception in Vegetated Environments

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
The body of literature seeking to evaluate particle interception in vegetated, aquatic environments is growing; however, comparing the results of these studies is difficult due to large variation in flow regime, particle size, vegetation canopy density ...

Development of Safety Performance Functions: Incorporating Unobserved Heterogeneity and Functional Form Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
To improve transportation safety, this study applies Highway Safety Manual (HSM) procedures to roadways while accounting for unobserved heterogeneity and exploring alternative functional forms for Safety Performance Functions (SPFs).

Functional Form and U.S. Agricultural Production Elasticities

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, 1993
Because so much agricultural policy analysis utilizes estimates of supply and demand elasticities, it is crucial to obtain the most reliable estimates possible.

Multiple-Output Production Modeled with Three Functional Forms

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, 1992
Aggregate dual models are specified to examine multiple-output production relationships in each of four major, geographically dispersed, agricultural states (California, Iowa, Texas, and Florida).

STRING v11: protein–protein association networks with increased coverage, supporting functional discovery in genome-wide experimental datasets

open access: yesNucleic Acids Res., 2018
Proteins and their functional interactions form the backbone of the cellular machinery. Their connectivity network needs to be considered for the full understanding of biological phenomena, but the available information on protein–protein associations is

Form and function in the brain

open access: yesThe Lancet Neurology, 2021
Neuroscientists, neurologists, and psychiatrists have all sought to visualise what is happening within the brain. What are the internal representations of the external world? What are the forms taken by our feelings, motivations, and memories? What structures actually turn all these sensations and cognitions into action—whether adaptive or maladaptive?

Privileged (Default) Causal Cognition: A Mathematical Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
Causal cognition is a key part of human learning, reasoning, and decision-making. In particular, people are capable of learning causal relations from data, and then reasoning and planning using those cognitive representations.
