Do Governance Structures Drive Green Building Adoption? A Machine Learning Approach With Random Forests

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the determinants of firms' propensity to adopt green buildings in the Euro Stoxx 300 and the S&P 500 indices, during 2012–2023. Using random forest binary classifiers, we assess the relative importance of financial, sectoral, geographic, and climate governance predictors and uncover nonlinear relationships often overlooked ...

Complexity Results for Nonmonotonic Logics

Journal of Logic and Computation, 1992
The paper provides complexity results for three problems of several nonmonotonic logics. Testing of existence of a fixed point and deciding whether a formula belongs to at least one fixed point are \(\Sigma^ P_ 2\)-complete. Deciding whether a formula belongs to all fixed points is \(\Pi^ P_ 2\)-complete.

Classical Logic, Uniformity, and Weak Excluded Middle in Non-Monotonic Proof-Theoretic Semantics

Bulletin of the Section of Logic
Non-monotonic base-extension semantics (nB-eS), a kind of non-monotonic proof-theoretic semantics (nPTS), is known to validate classical logic when its meta-logic is classical.

Bio‐inspired vision: From principle, material architectures to system‐level integration

FlexMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the development and mechanism of electronic and ionic bio‐inspired vision devices respectively. Then, it explores the impact of structure on bio‐inspired visual performance from the scale of intrinsic materials and device. Finally, it concludes that only by combining advanced software and technology can more complex vision ...

From Empire to Aid: Analysing Persistence of Colonial Legacies in Foreign Aid to Africa

Journal of International Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For decades now, Western development agencies and donors have been castigated for their colonial biases in providing aid to Africa. It is well established that donors provide considerably more foreign aid to their former colonies relative to other countries.

Induction and Confirmation Theory: An Approach based on a Paraconsistent Nonmonotonic Logic

Princípios, 2011
This paper is an effort to realize and explore the connections that exist between nonmonotonic logic and confirmation theory. We pick up one of the most wide-spread nonmonotonic formalisms – default logic – and analyze to what extent and under what ...

Heavy‐Metal‐Free Colloidal Quantum Dots for Photocatalysis

Small, EarlyView.
Heavy‐metal‐free colloidal quantum dots provide sustainable photocatalytic platforms by combining tunable band structures, strong light absorption, and programmable surfaces/interfaces. This Review highlights how core/shell engineering, alloying, defect regulation, ligand design, and hybrid‐interface construction direct charge separation and ...

A Review and Prospect of Appearance Defect Detection Methods for High Voltage Equipment Based on Vision Large Models

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High voltage equipment, as a core component of power systems, plays an indispensable role in ensuring the reliability of power supply through its safe and stable operation. Traditional visual defect detection for high voltage equipment, however, often relies on manual inspection and experience‐based judgement, which struggles to meet the ...

On Priest on Nonmonotonic and Inductive Logic

, 2016
Graham Priest defends the use of a nonmonotonic logic, LPm, in his analysis of reasoning in the face of true contradictions, such as those arising from the paradoxes of self-reference.
