Globalisation, Inequality and Health [PDF]
As we suggested in a previous work (Borghesi and Vercelli, Sustainable globalisation, Ecological Economics, vol.44, n.1, 2003), the process of globalisation affects the sustainability of development mainly through three channels: economic growth ...

Passive Color Imaging Through Macroscopic Strong Scattering Media
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Light reflected from distant targets is severely attenuated and scattered by dense fog. A color‐channel‐simulated, independently exposed sCMOS array (CISA), combined with a passive colorful de‐scattering pipeline (PCDP), captures and reconstructs extremely weak target signals.

Income-related health inequality in Portugal [PDF]
The Portuguese health care system is based on principles of equity and efficiency. Despite that, it appears that equality has not been fully realized owing to differences in access [Dixon and Massialos (2000)] or self-assessed health [Van Doorslaer and ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This Perspective charts the modeling landscape for soft manipulators, spanning sparse system identification, neural dynamics, physics‐informed models and hybrid intelligence. We examine how physics, data, sensing, adaptation and control can assume complementary roles within this landscape, and provide a framework for selecting modeling approaches ...

Health inequality and deprivation
Health Economics, 2009 AbstractThis paper looks at health inequality and deprivation, with a particular focus on developing countries. It is specifically concerned with relationships between health and income, especially the extent to which inequality and deprivation in the former is driven by changes in the latter.

Space‐Charge‐Driven Nonlinear Charge Transport in Silicon Reconfigurable Nonlinear‐Processing Units
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Many approaches to AI hardware focus on accelerating linear operations, yet nonlinearity underpins computational expressivity. Reconfigurable nonlinear‐processing units (RNPUs) are promising computational primitives that provide nonlinear transformations directly in hardware.

Low‐Power Control Of Resistance Switching Transitions in First‐Order Memristors
Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.Joule losses are a serious concern in modern integrated circuit design. In this regard, minimizing the energy necessary for programming memristors should be handled with care. This manuscript presents an optimal control framework, allowing to derive energy‐efficient programming voltage protocols for resistance switching devices. Following this approach,

Health Inequality over the Life-Cycle [PDF]
We investigate the evolution of health inequality over the life-course. Health is modeled as a latent variable that is determined by three factors: endowments, and permanent and transitory shocks.

Inequality in health versus inequality in lifestyle choices
Nordic Journal of Health Economics, 2015 Repeated Norwegian cross-sectional data for the period 2005 to 2011 are used to compare sources of inequality in health, as represented by self-assessed health and obesity, with sources of inequality in lifestyles that are central to the production of ...

Health Inequality and Health Types
The Econometrics JournalWhile health affects many economic outcomes, its dynamics are still poorly understood. We use k means clustering, a machine learning technique, and data from the Health and Retirement Study to identify health types during middle and old age. We identify five health types: the vigorous resilient, the fair-health resilient, the fair-health vulnerable ...
