Multitype Game Optimisation: A Two‐Stage Fine‐Tuning Framework for Multi‑Game Optimisation With Large Language Models

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Large language models (LLMs) have made remarkable advances in natural language processing, demonstrating great potential in modelling structured sequences. However, adapting these capabilities to machine gaming tasks such as Go remains challenging due to limitations in strategy generalisation and optimisation efficiency.

Generalized uncertainty principle and neutrino phenomenology

Physics Letters B
Generalized uncertainty principles are effective changes to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle that emerge in several quantum gravity models. In the present letter, we study the consequences that two classes of these modifications yield on the physics ...

Chronic Absence as a Public Health Priority: A Framework for Coordinated Action

The Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.
Policy Points Chronic absence should be recognized as a public health indicator and early warning sign that systems are failing to meet the developmental, social, and health needs of students. Improving student attendance requires cross‐sector policy action across education, health, and public health to address the structural and social determinants of

Work hours, weekend working, nonstandard work schedules and sleep quantity and quality: findings from the UK household longitudinal study

BMC Public Health
Background Atypical temporal work patterns such as working longer than the standard 35–40 h/ week, weekend working, and nonstandard work schedules (i.e. outside of the typical 9–5, including but not restricted to shiftwork) are increasingly prevalent in ...

Contemporaneous threshold autoregressive models: estimation, testing and forecasting [PDF]

This paper proposes a contemporaneous smooth transition threshold autoregressive model (C-STAR) as a modification of the smooth transition threshold autoregressive model surveyed in Teräsvirta (1998), in which the regime weights depend on the ex ante ...

A New Playbook: State‐Driven Solutions for Resilient Health Data

The Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.
Policy Points Disruptions to federal health data infrastructure threaten states’ ability to identify health disparities, target interventions, and evaluate programs, making state‐level investment in data infrastructure and systems especially urgent. States can build resilient, equity‐centered data systems by enacting data disaggregation legislation ...

Efficient percolation simulations for lossy photonic fusion networks

Physical Review Research
The study of percolation phenomena has various applications ranging from social networks or materials science to quantum information. The most common percolation models are bond or site percolation for which the Newman-Ziff algorithm enables an efficient

Food without fire: Environmental and nutritional impacts from a solar stove field experiment

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Over 80% of the population in rural Sub‐Saharan Africa relies on biomass cooking fuel, a substantial source of anthropogenic greenhouse gases. We use a field experiment in Zambia to investigate the impact of solar stoves on biomass fuel use and cooking habits.
