Non-invasive diagnosis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: Current status and future perspective

open access: yesHeliyon
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease throughout the world. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and liver cirrhosis can result from nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), the severe stage of NAFLD ...

Justifiability of Bayesian Implementation in Oligopolistic Markets [PDF]

open access: yes
We show that in oligopolistic markets the social choice correspondence which selects all socially efficient outcomes is Nash implementable if the number of firms is at least two. Thus, monopoly regulation whenever consumers are favored by the designer or

Simulation Effects of Soil and Water Conservation in Rangelands on Runoff Characteristics Using HEC-HMS Model (A Case Study: Rangelands of Meikhoran Watershed, Kermanshah Province)

open access: yesعلوم آب و خاک, 2018
Due to the lack of necessary equipment for measuring and recording changes in watershed runoff and flood situation after the implementation of corrective actions, using hydrologic models is considered as an efficient tool to assess the undertaken actions

On Maskin monotonicity of solution based social choice rules [PDF]

open access: yes
Howard (1992) argues that the Nash bargaining solution is not Nash implementable, as it does not satisfy Maskin monotonicity. His arguments can be extended to other bargaining solutions as well.

Modeling Changes in Flow Dynamics From the Restoration of a Distributary Slough Along a Large Floodplain River

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sloughs are slow‐moving or still water systems that serve as an important ecosystem component connecting rivers and floodplains such as the Apalachicola River in northwest Florida. However, sloughs of the Apalachicola River have become hydrologically disconnected from the mainstem due to the impact of failed navigation projects such as channel

Gradient-Based Algorithms With Intermediate Observations in Static and Differential Games

open access: yesIEEE Access
In two-player static and differential games, strategic players often use available or delayed information about the other player’s decisions and solve an optimization or optimal control problem to determine their strategic choices.

To Merge or not to Merge: That is the question [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
In this paper we analyze the implementation of socially optimal mergers when the regulator is not informed about the parameters that determine social and private gains from potential mergers.

Evaluation of Human Impact on Sediment Dynamics in an Intensively Managed Agricultural Watershed Using Distributed Modeling

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT By altering hydrological and geomorphological processes at watershed scales, humans have substantially influenced the movement of sediment on Earth's surface. Despite widespread recognition of human impacts on erosion and deposition, few studies have assessed the magnitude of change in watershed‐scale sediment fluxes before and after the ...

A Full Characterization of Nash Implementation with Strategy Space Reduction [PDF]

open access: yes
Noting that a full characterization of Nash-implementation is given using a canonical-mechanism and Maskin''s theorem (Maskin, 1999) is shown using a mechanism with Saijo''s type of strategy space reduction (Saijo, 1988), this paper fully characterizes ...

Automated extraction of right whale morphometric data from drone aerial photographs

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Aerial photogrammetry is a popular non‐invasive method for measuring marine mammal body size, body morphometrics, and body condition, but processing large datasets efficiently remains challenging. We developed a machine learning algorithm using Mask R‐CNN models to automatically measure body morphometrics of southern right whales from aerial ...
