Emergence of Invariance and Disentanglement in Deep Representations

open access: yes, 2018
Using established principles from Statistics and Information Theory, we show that invariance to nuisance factors in a deep neural network is equivalent to information minimality of the learned representation, and that stacking layers and injecting noise ...

Contralateral language network integration predicts and protects against naming decline after temporal lobe resection

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Anterior temporal lobe resection (ATLR) is an effective treatment for drug‐resistant temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) but carries a substantial risk of language impairment, particularly in naming. Understanding and predicting the impact of ATLR on language functions remains a major clinical challenge.

Interpretable Tree‐Based Models for Predicting Short‐Term Rockburst Risk Considering Multiple Factors

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Interpretable tree‐based models integrate microseismic, geological, and mining indicators to predict short‐term rockburst risk. SHAP analysis reveals the dominant role of energy‐related features and clarifies nonlinear factor interactions, enabling transparent and reliable early‐warning in deep coal mines.

Positive and negative aspects of bacteriophages and their immense role in the food chain

open access: yesnpj Science of Food
Bacteriophages infect and replicate inside a bacterial host as well as serve as natural bio-control agents. Phages were once viewed as nuisances that caused fermentation failures with cheese-making and other industrial processes, which lead to economic ...

Motive and Opportunity: Order Choice in a Limit Order Book With Dispersed Information

open access: yesInternational Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We test predictions of market microstructure theory relating to the determinants of order choice in a limit order book where information is dispersed among traders. Using an experimental limit order book, with a large state space, we find that informed traders exhibit patience, compatible with the ‘waiting game’ behaviour described in Foster ...

A Preliminary Assessment of Noise‐Related Impacts From the Urban‐Invasive Johnstone's Whistling Frog (Eleutherodactylus johnstonei) 城市入侵物种约翰斯通鸣蛙 (Eleutherodactylus johnstonei) 引起的噪声影响初步评估 Una evaluación preliminar de los impactos relacionados con el ruido de la rana silbadora de Johnstone (Eleutherodactylus johnstonei), especie urbana invasora

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, EarlyView.
The Johnstone's whistling frog is an invasive species whose loud night‐time calls may affect human health and well‐being. Our study in Cali, Colombia, combined fieldwork and online surveys to assess its urban occupancy, density, and potential health impacts.

A group-theoretic approach to formalizing bootstrapping problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The bootstrapping problem consists in designing agents that learn a model of themselves and the world, and utilize it to achieve useful tasks. It is different from other learning problems as the agent starts with uninterpreted observations and commands,
