High School GPA and Exam Scores: Does Their Relevance for First‐Year Academic Performance Vary With Program Selectivity?

Bulletin of Economic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines student admissions to higher education based on past performance, focusing on two measures: high school GPA and national exam scores. GPA is teacher‐assigned and based on repeated assessments, while these exams are externally graded, one‐off standardized tests. Using a nationwide dataset, we investigate how the relevance of

Controllable Intrinsic Surface Pattern Generation Using Slime Mold Simulations

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Surface‐based pattern simulations have proven valuable for texture design and scientific visualization, but existing methods face several limitations. Most simulations either target a narrow range of pattern types (e.g. spots, branching) or support a broad range of patterns at the cost of time‐consuming parameter tuning.

A Semi‐Analytical Energy Model for Particle‐Based Fluid Simulation Involving Complex Moving Boundaries

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract While semi‐analytical boundary handling techniques have proven effective for modeling particle‐based fluid‐solid interactions, they can become unstable when applied to mesh boundaries undergoing dynamic motion or featuring complex, sharp geometries.

Unfixing Place: Time and Value in the Anthropology of Food

Culture, Agriculture, Food and Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although many anthropologists have engaged with the political and economic work of “place” in qualifying and working with food, time has rarely featured substantively in the economic and political life of the comestible. Gathering themes from my ethnographic research in Northern Italy and excavation time in anthropological scholarship on food,

The Debt‐Equity Spread

The Journal of Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose a measure of the valuation gap between debt and equity—debt‐equity spread (DES)—based on the difference between actual and equity‐implied credit spreads. DES predicts cross‐sectional stock and bond returns in opposite directions.
