Testing the Marketing Performance of German Wheat Farmers

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper analyses the marketing performance of wheat farmers in Germany. Wheat sales data from 465 individual farms over a 12‐year period are used to test against different market benchmarks. Market benchmarks are constructed by simulating passive trading agents using regional wheat prices.

Cortical Learning of Recognition Categories: A Resolution of the Exemplar Vs. Prototype Debate [PDF]

, 2009
Do humans and animals learn exemplars or prototypes when they categorize objects and events in the world? How are different degrees of abstraction realized through learning by neurons in inferotemporal and prefrontal cortex?

Short‐term and long‐term outcomes of self‐expandable metallic stent placement versus creation of a diverting stoma for obstructive colorectal cancer: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
SEMS contributed to comparable outcomes including postoperative complications, mortality, and long‐term outcomes, but significantly reduced SSI. These findings support the broader adoption of SEMS in clinical practice, particularly requiring minimized invasiveness and improving patient quality of life are prioritized. Abstract Aim A diverting stoma (DS)

Phonological representations and repetition priming [PDF]

, 1999
An ubiquitous phenomenon in psychology is the `repetition effect': a repeated stimulus is processed better on the second occurrence than on the first. Yet, what counts as a repetition?

Selenium‐Containing Polyurethane Thermo‐Sensitive Hydrogel Accelerates Diabetic Wound Healing by Activating Unfolded Protein Response

Aggregate, EarlyView.
The selenium‐containing polyurethane (SePU) thermo‐sensitive hydrogel (SePU/HBC) was constructed by incorporating SePU into hydroxybutyl chitosan (HBC). This hydrogel alleviates endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and inhibits cell apoptosis by activating the unfolded protein response (UPR), thereby promoting diabetic wound healing.

A Multimodal Emotion Recognition System: Integrating Facial Expressions, Body Movement, Speech, and Spoken Language [PDF]

arXiv
Traditional psychological evaluations rely heavily on human observation and interpretation, which are prone to subjectivity, bias, fatigue, and inconsistency. To address these limitations, this work presents a multimodal emotion recognition system that provides a standardised, objective, and data-driven tool to support evaluators, such as psychologists,

Multi‐Module Micro/Nanorobots for Biomedical and Environmental Remediation Applications

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Multi‐module microrobots (MNRs) have overcome the limitations of single‐module systems by integrating components such as propeller, actuator, manipulator, and imaging modalities. They show promise in biomedical applications, such as targeted drug delivery and tissue repair, as well as in environmental remediation, including pollutant removal.

Content-Based Instruction Understood in Terms of Connectionism and Constructivism

L2 Journal, 2016
Despite the number of articles devoted to the topic of content-based instruction (CBI), little attempt has been made to link the claims for CBI to research in cognitive science. In this article, I review the CBI model of foreign language (FL) instruction

A Chinese Multi-label Affective Computing Dataset Based on Social Media Network Users [PDF]

arXiv
Emotion and personality are central elements in understanding human psychological states. Emotions reflect an individual subjective experiences, while personality reveals relatively stable behavioral and cognitive patterns. Existing affective computing datasets often annotate emotion and personality traits separately, lacking fine-grained labeling of ...
