Creating Controversy in Proxy Voting Advice

open access: yesThe Journal of Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We analyze how a profit‐maximizing proxy advisor designs vote recommendations and research reports. The advisor benefits from producing informative, unbiased reports, but only partially informative recommendations, biased against the a priori likely alternative.

Patentability Requirements and the Direction of Innovation

open access: yesThe Journal of Industrial Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We model a duopolistic game where firms first choose the direction of their innovation, then invest in the chosen direction, and finally, compete in the product market. Investments occur either in overlapping or non‐overlapping territories. We show that, in the presence of a generous patent regime that allows the protection of innovations of ...

Spatial Modesty: The Everyday Production of Gendered Space in Segregated and Assimilative Organizations

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores the relations between organizational spatiality, gender and religion‐informed cultural practices. Theoretically grounded in Lefebvre's spatial theory and informed by Islamic feminism, it examines the significance of Islamic spatial modesty in (re)constructing and sustaining gender (in)equalities in financial institutions ...

How Social‐Symbolic Work Changes Places

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract We advance the social‐symbolic work perspective by developing an understanding of places as objects characterized by location, materiality, function, and symbolic meaning and which can be changed through social‐symbolic work. Drawing from a longitudinal study of the ‘Empty Homes’ Programme in England, our analysis identifies an unfolding ...

Slippery Knowledge: Ignorance, Ecologies, and Environment in Endometriosis Framing

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite a growing body of literature linking environmental toxins and endometriosis, environmental issues make only occasional appearances in public, patient, and specialist conversations about endometriosis. These conversations may hover at the edges of public discourse, but do not gain traction.

A universal geography neural network for mobility flow prediction in planning scenarios

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This study primarily focuses on generating mobility flow in regions and cities, which plays an important role in urban planning and management. The majority of existing mobility flow models, including conventional statistical models and deep learning‐based models, are heavily dependent on historical data to predict future mobility flows.

High embankment slope stability prediction using data augmentation and explainable ensemble learning

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The stability of embankment slopes for heavy‐haul railway foundations is essential for safe railway operations. Railway embankment slope stability datasets often rely on engineering judgment for analysis. The labor‐ and resource‐intensive processes of data preparation result in small dataset sizes.

Interpretable physics‐informed graph neural networks for flood forecasting

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change has intensified extreme weather events, with floods causing significant socioeconomic and environmental damage. Accurate flood forecasting is crucial for disaster preparedness and risk mitigation, yet traditional hydrodynamic models, while precise, are computationally prohibitive for real‐time applications.
