Foreign labor, peer‐networking and agricultural efficiency in the Italian dairy sector

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract While the presence of immigrants in the agricultural sector is widely acknowledged, the empirical evidence on its economic consequences is lacking, especially from a microeconomic perspective. Using the Farm Accountancy Data Network panel data for Italian dairy farms in the period 2008–2018, the present study investigates the relationship ...

A Study on the New Class of Inequalities of Midpoint-Type and Trapezoidal-Type Based on Twice Differentiable Functions with Conformable Operators

open access: yesJournal of Function Spaces, 2023
This paper derives some equalities via twice differentiable functions and conformable fractional integrals. With the help of the obtained identities, we present new trapezoid-type and midpoint-type inequalities via convex functions in the context of the ...

Agricultural Diversification at the Margin. Strategies and Determinants in Italian Mountain and Remote Areas

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper explores the convergence in on‐farm diversification strategies of agricultural holdings, between remote areas and more central ones. Using Italian farm‐level data, we explore the determinants of diversification strategies across farms.

Optimal Lp-Metric for Minimizing Powered Deviations in Regression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Minimizations by least squares or by least absolute deviations are well known criteria in regression modeling. In this work the criterion of generalized mean by powered deviations is suggested.

“It Is Much Safer to Be Sparse than Connected”: Safe Control of Robotic Swarm Density Dynamics with PDE Optimization with State Constraints

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This paper proposes a novel control framework to ensure safety of a robotic swarm. A feedback optimization controller is capable of driving the swarm toward a target density while keeping risk‐zone exposure below a safety threshold. Theory and experiments show how safety is more effectively achieved for sparsely connected swarms.

MusicSwarm: Biologically Inspired Intelligence for Music Composition

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Biologically inspired swarms of frozen foundation models self‐organize to compose complex music without fine‐tuning. By coordinating through stigmergic signals, decentralized agents dynamically evolve specialized roles and adapt to solve complex tasks.

A Refinement of Jensen’s and Minkowski’s Inequalities via Superquadratic Functions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences
We provide in this note a different refinement of Jensen’s inequality obtained via superquadratic functions. A refinement of Minkowski’s and Hölder’s inequalities is also established as an application of our refined Jensen’s inequality.

Hölder’s inequality for shifted quantum integral operator

open access: yesExamples and Counterexamples
We show by two counterexamples that Hölder’s inequality for shifted quantum integral operator does not hold in general and we prove the case in which it is valid.

Estimation for incomplete information stochastic systems from discrete observations

open access: yesAdvances in Difference Equations, 2019
This paper is concerned with the estimation problem for incomplete information stochastic systems from discrete observations. The suboptimal estimation of the state is obtained by constructing the extended Kalman filtering equation.
