An Incentive Mechanism Based on Lottery for Data Quality in Mobile Crowdsensing
MathematicsMobile Crowdsensing (MCS) leverages smart devices within sensing networks to gather data. Given that data collection demands specific resources, such as device power and network bandwidth, many users are reluctant to participate in MCS.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Social-Aware Incentive Mechanism for AP Based Mobile Data Offloading
IEEE Access, 2018 Without properly addressed, the dramatic increase in mobile data traffic may lead to severe traffic congestion problems in cellular networks. Mobile data offloading is a promising method to reduce the traffic congestion by redirecting the traffic of a ...

Incentive design for home computer security [PDF]
CHI '07 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2007 Home computer users frequently lack the skills necessary to ensure proper security. Hackers exploit this to control large networks of computers (.botnets.) that are used for spam, extortion, and fraud. I integrate ideas from psychology and economics to design software that provides incentives that induce better security choices by home computer users.

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Effort and Selection Effects of Incentive Contracts
We show that the improved effort of employees associated with incentive contracts depends on the properties of the performance measures used in the contract.We also find that the power of incentives in the contract is only indirectly related to any ...

α‐Synuclein aggregation landscape from phase separation to neurotoxic intermediates
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Alpha‐synuclein aggregation in Parkinson's disease involves a complex landscape of transient intermediates, including oligomers, fibrils and liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS). A view is emerging in which LLPS maturation into solid‐like condensates may contribute to the formation of neurotoxic species.
