Consumer Acceptance and Use of Information Technology: Extending the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology

open access: yesMIS Q., 2012
This paper extends the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) to study acceptance and use of technology in a consumer context. Our proposed UTAUT2 incorporates three constructs into UTAUT: hedonic motivation, price value, and habit ...

Geographic variation in walking activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
This study examined whether there is geographic variation in field populations, focusing on the moving activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. Results showed significant differences in moving activity among field populations but no correlation with latitude or meteorological factors.

Berry's conjecture and information theory

open access: yes, 1997
It is shown that, by applying a principle of information theory, one obtains Berry's conjecture regarding the high-lying quantal energy eigenstates of classically chaotic systems.Comment: 8 pages, no ...

Dendritic cells steering antigen and leukocyte traffic in lymph nodes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Dendritic cells are key players in the activation of T cells and their commitment to effector function. In this In a Nutshell Review, we will discuss how dendritic cells guide the trafficking of antigen and leukocytes in the lymph node, thus influencing T‐cell activation processes. Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in initiating and shaping the

ITC-MNP: a diverse dataset for image file fragment classification

open access: yesBMC Research Notes
Objectives Image file fragment classification is a critical area of study in digital forensics. However, many publicly available datasets in this field are derived from a single source, often lacking consideration of the diversity in image settings and ...

Information theory as a consistent framework for quantification and classification of landscape patterns

open access: yesLandscape Ecology, 2018
Quantitative grouping of similar landscape patterns is an important part of landscape ecology due to the relationship between a pattern and an underlying ecological process. One of the priorities in landscape ecology is a development of the theoretically

Leveraging current insights on IL‐10‐producing dendritic cells for developing effective immunotherapeutic approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In vivo IL‐10 produced by tissue‐resident tolDC is involved in maintaining/inducing tolerance. Depending on the agent used for ex vivo tolDC generation, cells acquire common features but prime T cells towards anergy, FOXP3+ Tregs, or Tr1 cells according to the levels of IL‐10 produced. Ex vivo‐induced tolDC were administered to patients to re‐establish/

Time-Periodic Metallic Metamaterials Defined by Floquet Circuits

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2023
In this paper, we study the scattering and diffraction phenomena in time-modulated metamaterials of metallic nature by means of Floquet equivalent circuits. Concretely, we focus on a time-periodic screen that alternates between “metal” and &
