A Modified Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization Based on Levy Flight and Double-Archive Mechanism

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
In the past few decades, multi-objective particle swarm optimization (PSO) has increasingly attracted attention from scientists. To obtain a set of more accurate and well-distributed solutions, many variations of multi-objective PSO algorithms have been ...

Measures of dependence for Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes with tempered stable distribution [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we investigate the dependence structure for Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes with totally skewed tempered stable structure. They are natural extension of Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes with stable (and Gaussian) distribution.

Beyond Exceptional and Ordinary: Analysing the Effects of Emergency Frames on EU Renewable Energy Policy‐Making

open access: yesJCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This study aims to provide a better understanding of how policy‐making changes when an issue is framed as an emergency. Literature on emergency politics provides different views on policy‐making changes resulting from emergency frames, where ordinary and exceptional policy‐making overlap in different ways.

Exploring the interplay between small and large scales movements in a neotropical small mammal

open access: yesMovement Ecology
We record and analyze the movement patterns of the marsupial Didelphis aurita at different temporal scales. Animals trajectories are collected at a daily scale by using spool-and-line techniques and, with the help of radio-tracking devices, animals ...

Privilege Versus Right: Vigilantism Against Israel's Palestinian Citizens

open access: yesSociology Lens, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article addresses three core questions: What is the social origin of vigilantism? How do vigilantes justify extra‐legal violence and intimidation? What are vigilantism's long‐term effects? The analysis focuses on a period in which Israel's Palestinian‐Arab citizens increased their access to legal rights, social mobility, spatial ...

War as a Phenomenon of Inquiry in Management Studies

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract We argue that war as a phenomenon deserves more focused attention in management. First, we highlight why war is an important and relevant area of inquiry for management scholars. We then integrate scattered conversations on war in management studies into a framework structured around three building blocks – (a) the nature of war from an ...

Correlated disorder in myelinated axons orientational geometry and structure

open access: yes, 2017
While the ultrastructure of the myelin has been considered to be a quasi-crystalline stable system, nowadays its multiscale complex dynamics appears to play a key role for its functionality, degeneration and repair processes following neurological ...

Cold comfort for change: Stream mats as biological indicators of ecosystem processes in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Glacier‐fed streams (GFSs) make ideal systems for studying climate‐related changes. Some of the best‐studied GFSs are found in the McMurdo Dry Valleys (MDVs) of Antarctica, one of the Earth's coldest and driest deserts. Despite their harsh and isolated nature, MDV GFSs represent an oasis of life in a landscape visually devoid of it, with ...

Unexpected Encounters in Island Worlds: Interactions Between ROC/Taiwan Fishers and Chinese Diaspora Communities in the 20th‐Century Pacific

open access: yesNations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Researchers have examined how the People's Republic of China (PRC) and the Republic of China (ROC) cultivated relations with Chinese diaspora communities to secure recognition of their government as the true homeland of the Chinese people. However, less attention has been paid to how accidental and contingent encounters between communities ...

Nanoscale correlated disorder in out-of-equilibrium myelin ultrastructure

open access: yes, 2017
Ultrastructural fluctuations at nanoscale are fundamental to assess properties and functionalities of advanced out-of-equilibrium materials. We have taken myelin as a model of supramolecular assembly in out-of-equilibrium living matter.
