Comparative cranial biomechanics reveal macroevolutionary trends in theropod dinosaurs, with emphasis on Tyrannosauroidea

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Tyrannosaurus is viewed as a model organism in vertebrate paleontology, with numerous studies analyzing its feeding biomechanics. Nonetheless, the evolution of this feeding performance has been under‐addressed in Tyrannosauroidea, especially in basal tyrannosauroids. Here we used muscle‐force reconstruction and finite element analysis (FEA) to

Getting (un)wasted: How planning failures generate consumer waste across resources: Time, money, goods, and energy

open access: yesConsumer Psychology Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Past research suggests that people exhibit robust waste aversion. However, many consumers routinely feel that they waste not only goods but also time, money, energy, and emotion and would be hard‐pressed to imagine their lives otherwise. Why does consumer waste persist? In this paper, we first propose a definition for consumer waste.

Incremental refinement of relevance rankings: Balancing relevance depth and scope

open access: yesJournal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Delivering both relevant and topically diverse results is a key challenge in information retrieval (IR). This study introduces a hybrid method that incrementally refines rankings by combining probabilistic topic modeling (latent dirichlet allocation [LDA]) with citation‐based pennant retrieval grounded in Relevance Theory (RT), optimizing for ...
