ABSTRACT This study investigates the structural relationships among reading, science and mathematics performance, socio‐economic dispersion (SES_Variance) and gender gaps using cross‐country PISA 2022 data. The primary objective is to assess whether reading functions as an upstream determinant of academic achievement and to evaluate the causal roles of

Prediction of Torque Arm Fatigue Life by Fuzzy Logic Method
In this study, a fuzzy-logic-based decision support model is developed to predict the fatigue life of load-bearing system elements such as torque arm. Traditional methods for fatigue life prediction are mostly based on certain mathematical expressions ...

ABSTRACT This article investigates the characterization of cascading phenomena within sociotechnical systems through a systematic review and the development of a conceptual modelling framework. Cascading phenomena, often described using terms such as ripple effect, domino effect, cascading failure, risk propagation and cascading effect, capture the far‐

Abstract Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapping technology is commonly used to enhance the compressive strength (CS) of reinforced concrete (RC) members. Accurate prediction of the compressive strength of FRP‐confined concrete columns is crucial for optimizing structural design and helps reduce the time and costs associated with physical testing ...

AI‐enabled bumpless transfer control strategy for legged robot with hybrid energy storage system
Abstract Designing Hybrid energy storage system (HESS) for a legged robot is significant to improve the motion performance and energy efficiency of the robot. However, switching between the driving mode and regenerative braking mode in the HESS may generate a torque bump, which has brought significant challenges to the stability of the robot locomotion.

A Quantised Push‐Sum Distributed Adaptive Momentum Algorithm for Optimisation Over Directed Networks
ABSTRACT In this paper, we investigate a distributed constrained optimisation problem over directed networks. The agents in the networks conduct local computations and communications, endeavouring to collaboratively minimise the aggregation of all locally known convex cost functions subject to a global constraint set.

ReTrace: Interactive Visualizations for Reasoning Traces of Large Reasoning Models
Abstract Recent advances in Large Language Models have led to Large Reasoning Models, which produce step‐by‐step reasoning traces. Such traces may offer insight into how models think, improving explainability and clarifying the underlying process. These traces, however, are often verbose and complex, making them cognitively demanding to comprehend ...
