Managing the Threat of Subsidized Predators for a Threatened Shorebird
Subsidized predators—native predators that have become more common due to human activities—challenge the persistence of many at‐risk prey species and require creative solutions beyond lethal predator control. In an 8‐year study, we placed small wire cages over western snowy plover nests that allow passage of plovers, but not their predators, and ...

On the Rates of Pointwise Convergence for Bernstein Polynomials
Abstract Let f be a real bounded function defined on the interval [0, 1], which is affine on $$(a,b)\subset [0,1]$$ ( a , b ) ⊂ [

Pointwise estimates and Lp convergence rates to diffusion waves for p-system with damping
By introducing a new approximate Green function, we obtain the pointwise estimates on the solutions of Euler equations with linear frictional damping, from which we can deduce the optimal Lp(1⩽p⩽+∞) convergence rates to the nonlinear diffusion waves. The

Abstract Generalizability theory (G‐theory) defines a statistical framework for assessing measurement reliability by decomposing observed variance into meaningful components attributable to persons, facets, and error. Classic G‐theory assumes homoscedastic residual variances across measurement conditions, an assumption that is often violated in ...

On the Brezis–Lieb lemma without pointwise convergence
Brezis–Lieb lemma is an improvement of Fatou Lemma that evaluates the gap between the integral of a functional sequence and the integral of its pointwise limit.

Approximating multidimensionality with asymmetric unidimensional IRT models
Abstract Unidimensional item response theory (IRT) models are widely used even in settings where assessment data exhibit subtle forms of multidimensionality. Recent empirical evidence suggests that when item difficulty is associated with dimensionality, asymmetric item characteristic curves (ICCs) emerge in the unidimensional approximation.

Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

SDFs from Unoriented Point Clouds using Neural Variational Heat Distances
We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from unoriented point clouds. We first compute a small time step of heat flow (middle) and then use its gradient directions to solve for a neural SDF (right). Abstract We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from ...
