Impacts of nature deprivations during the COVID-19 pandemic: A pre-post comparison [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Nature provides a myriad of intangible and non-material services to people. However, urbanites are increasingly disconnected from the natural world. The consequences of this progressive disconnection from nature remain difficult to measure as this process is slow and long-term monitoring or large-scale manipulation on nature experiences are scarce ...

Practice of Naturalism in Naguib Mahfouz’s Midaq Alley

open access: yesJurnal Poetika
Naturalism novels portray the reality of life in a sharper and more decisive way than realism novels. Naturalism takes the place of building a narrative, like shooting a photographic reality by zooming in.

Dirichlet is Natural [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science, 2015
AbstractGiry and Lawvere's categorical treatment of probabilities, based on the probabilistic monad G, offer an elegant and hitherto unexploited treatment of higher-order probabilities. The goal of this paper is to follow this formulation to reconstruct a family of higher-order probabilities known as the Dirichlet process. This family is widely used in

Improving Adult Vision Through Pathway‐Specific Training in Augmented Reality

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Traditional perceptual training approaches are limited by stimulus specificity, treatment efficacy, and patient compliance. A novel altered reality (AR) method is developed to enhance pathway‐specific functions in human adults while performing everyday activities.

Naturalness Evaluation of Natural Language Generation in Task-oriented Dialogues using BERT [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
This paper presents an automatic method to evaluate the naturalness of natural language generation in dialogue systems. While this task was previously rendered through expensive and time-consuming human labor, we present this novel task of automatic naturalness evaluation of generated language.
