Advances in 4D Representation: Geometry, Motion, and Interaction
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.We survey 4D representation through three key pillars — geometry, motion, and interaction — offering a selective, representation‐centric perspective to guide researchers in choosing and customizing the right 4D representation for their tasks. Abstract We present a survey on 4D generation and reconstruction, a fast‐evolving subfield of computer graphics

Reframing Justice in Healthcare AI: An Ubuntu‐Based Approach for Africa
Developing World Bioethics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT There is an ongoing debate on how to balance the benefits and risks of artificial intelligence (AI), especially in healthcare. In resource‐constrained settings, such as Africa, where access to quality care remains a challenge, AI has the potential to improve efficiency, accessibility, and patient outcomes.

Accelerating Platform User Growth: Pinduoduo's Multi‐Motivational Selfish Referral Strategy
Information Systems Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Referral strategies, whereby existing platform users recruit new users and thereby strengthen same‐side network effects, have long been central to digital platforms' efforts to grow the installed user base. Current referral strategies often require the referee to complete a transaction as a prerequisite for the referrer to receive the reward ...

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract Multi‐restart metaheuristics can be highly effective for complex optimization problems, yet their performance depends critically on how restarts and algorithmic parameters are selected. This paper introduces a reinforcement learning approach for managing restart‐level decisions and parameter configurations in the UES–CMA‐ES hybrid ...
