Dynamics of Growth–Feeding Mechanisms in Japanese Anchovy Larvae Under Different Environmental Conditions

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The linkage between growth rate and feeding success in fish larvae has received much attention as a potential indicator of future growth and survival potential. Given the increasing evidence that the growth–survival relationship is highly variable, the growth–feeding linkage would also exhibit variable dynamics among cohorts of the same ...

“Nowhere else to go”: Slow abandonment and (en)closures of long‐term care in Los Angeles

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residential long‐term care facilities, known in California as “board and care” homes, have been closing rapidly in the last decade. Proponents assert these provide vital forms of housing and care to the poor and must be saved, while critics contend they perpetuate the institutionalization of people with disabilities and should be abolished ...

Estimates of the Approximation Error Using Rademacher Complexity: Learning Vector-Valued Functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
For certain families of multivariable vector-valued functions to be approximated, the accuracy of approximation schemes made up of linear combinations of computational units containing adjustable parameters is investigated.

The Impact of Digital Technologies on Skills‐to‐Job Mismatches

open access: yesNew Technology, Work and Employment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A pervasive discourse calls for worker upskilling amid ongoing digital transformation. This study introduces a skills‐to‐job mismatch perspective into research on the digital transformation of work by conceptualising technological adoption as a process that reshapes the relationship between workers’ skill endowments and evolving job ...

Approximation Error Bounds via Rademacher's Complexity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Approximation properties of some connectionistic models, commonly used to construct approximation schemes for optimization problems with multivariable functions as admissible solutions, are investigated.

Efficient approximation of random fields for numerical applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This article is dedicated to the rapid computation of separable expansions for the approximation of random fields. We consider approaches based on techniques from the approximation of non-local operators on the one hand and based on the pivoted Cholesky ...

Rational approximation of discrete data with asymptomatic behaviour [PDF]

open access: yes
This thesis is concerned with the least-squares approximation of discrete data that appear to exhibit asymptotic behaviour. In particular, we consider using rational functions as they are able to display a number of types of asymptotic behaviour.

Fish assemblage at a newly restored tidal wetland reflects surrounding waterways in the Sacramento‐San Joaquin Delta

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction We studied the response of fish assemblages, water quality, and plankton following the completion of 700 acres of a 1184‐acre tidal restoration project (Dutch Slough Tidal Restoration; DSTR) in a system degraded by water diversions, channelization, non‐native species, and wetland loss.

Estimating the Shape Parameter of Topp–Leone Distribution Based on Progressive Type II Censored Samples

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2016
In this paper, classical and Bayesian point estimations of the Topp–Leone distribution shape parameter are studied when the sample is progressive Type II censored. The maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of the unknown parameter is proposed.
