Fugitive Junctures: Life‐Seeking, Route‐Finding and the Mobile Ensemble at Kenya's Borders

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract Fugitivity has become an important conceptual frame to understand the illegalised mobilities of contemporary migrants in conjunction with enslaved people's historical lines of flight as spatial praxes to seize their own freedom. Thinking from Kenya, and drawing on research with migrants, border officials, activists, police and smugglers,

How to allocate Research (and other) Subsidies [PDF]

A budget-constrained buyer wants to purchase items from a short-listed set. Items are differentiated by observable quality and sellers have private reserve prices for their items. The buyer’s problem is to select a subset of maximal quality.

ATHLETIC: An exoskeleton countermeasure exercise device for resistive and plyometric training in deep‐space missions

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Prolonged exposure to weightlessness leads to loss of muscle and bone mass. Therefore, astronauts on board the International Space Station (ISS) currently perform mandatory daily exercises. ISS missions usually last 6 months, and future missions will become significantly longer when going, for example, to Mars.

Growth and yield response of cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) clones to spacing in the Guinea Savanna zone of Ghana

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract The Guinea Savanna zone of many countries constitutes a critical cashew‐producing area. Despite its importance, data‐driven recommendations on optimal tree spacing remain largely unavailable to farmers in Ghana. This knowledge gap constrains productivity, reduces returns on investment, and affects farmer interest and ultimately the long‐term ...

Soybean and tobacco response to sublethal rates of herbicides used along roadsides

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Herbicides are one of the primary tools for vegetation management along roadsides. However, the drift of particles and vapors from herbicide applications along roadsides can cause damage and yield loss in adjacent sensitive crops. The objective of this research was to investigate the response of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] and tobacco ...

Machine Learning-Driven Optimization for Solution Space Reduction in the Quadratic Multiple Knapsack Problem

IEEE Access
The quadratic multiple knapsack problem (QMKP) is a well-studied problem in operations research. This problem involves selecting a subset of items that maximizes the linear and quadratic profit without exceeding a set of capacities for each knapsack ...

Generation Methods for Multidimensional Knapsack Problems and their Implications [PDF]

Journal of Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics, 2007
Although there are a variety of heuristics developed and applied to the variants of the binary knapsack problem, the testing of these heuristics are based on poorly defined test problems.

Identification and genomic location of resistance to bacterial leaf streak of barley

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract The bacterial leaf streak (BLS) disease of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), caused by Xanthomonas translucens pv. translucens (Xtt), has become increasingly important worldwide in recent years. Inefficacy of chemical control methods leaves deployment of host resistance to be the only option to manage this disease.
