Tooth eruption status and bite force determine dental microwear texture gradients in albino rats (Rattus norvegicus forma domestica)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) is widely applied for inferring diet in vertebrates. Besides diet and ingesta properties, factors like wear stage and bite force may affect microwear formation, potentially leading to tooth position‐specific microwear patterns.

Autorregresive conditional volatility, skewness and kurtosis [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper proposes a GARCH-type model allowing for time-varying volatility, skewness and kurtosis. The model is estimated assuming a Gram-Charlier series expansion of the normal density function for the error term, which is easier to estimate than the ...

Time evolution towards q-Gaussian stationary states through unified Ito-Stratonovich stochastic equation

open access: yes, 2010
We consider a class of single-particle one-dimensional stochastic equations which include external field, additive and multiplicative noises. We use a parameter $\theta \in [0,1]$ which enables the unification of the traditional It\^o and Stratonovich ...

Inter‐microscope comparability of dental microwear texture data obtained from different optical profilometers: Part II Deriving instrument‐specific correction equations for meta‐analyses using published data

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) has emerged as a valuable method for investigating the feeding ecology of vertebrates. Over the past decade, three‐dimensional topographic data from microscopic regions of tooth surfaces have been collected, and surface texture parameters have been published for both extant and fossil species.

Revisiting a long‐overlooked skull: Implications for the distribution of Dinodontosaurus brevirostris (Kannemeyeriiformes) in the Brazilian Triassic

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dicynodonts (Anomodontia: Dicynodontia) were one of the main groups of terrestrial tetrapods in Permian and Triassic faunas. In Brazil, the genus Dinodontosaurus is one of the most common tetrapod taxon in the Triassic Santa Maria Supersequence. This genus has a complex taxonomic history and is represented in the Triassic of both Argentina and

Portfolio Decisions with Higher Order Moments [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper, we address the global optimization of two interesting nonconvex problems in finance. We relax the normality assumption underlying the classical Markowitz mean-variance portfolio optimization model and consider the incorporation of skewness

Advancing Cave Survey Methods: High‐Precision Mapping in Drakotrypa Cave, Greece

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cave floor mapping plays a vital role across various scientific disciplines by enabling the identification and interpretation of features shaped by both natural processes and human activity. In cave archaeology, floor mapping is crucial to decode and reconstruct human‐induced morphological features.

Study on genetics of yield component traits under salt stress in two rice crosses raised using honeycomb selection design

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding
Yield components related to grain yield were severely affected by salinity. For the agronomically important traits, precise phenotyping of crop plants is essential under stress where soil heterogeneity is aggravated for genetic analysis and developing ...

A Distribution Family Bridging the Gaussian and the Laplace Laws, Gram–Charlier Expansions, Kurtosis Behaviour, and Entropy Features

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
The paper devises a family of leptokurtic bell-shaped distributions which is based on the hyperbolic secant raised to a positive power, and bridges the Laplace and Gaussian laws on asymptotic arguments.
