Convergent Interval Confirmation for Three‐Step Discrete Specific Zeroing Neural Dynamics Illustrated With Repetitive Motion Planning of Redundant Manipulators

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Repetitive motion planning (RMP) for redundant manipulators with high convergent precision becomes an intense research topic due to its more degrees of freedom. In this paper, a specific zeroing neural dynamics (SZND) model for the RMP is first set up via zeroing neurodynamics.

Simultaneous primality of the integers n and 2n-d

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis: Studia Mathematica, 2013
A necessary and sufficient condition for the simultaneous primality of integers $n$ and $2n-d$ is given by means of congruences ${\rm mod}\,{n(2n-d)}$ that hold if and only if they form a prime pair.

Genefer: Programs for Finding Large Probable Generalized Fermat Primes

Journal of Open Research Software, 2015
Genefer is a suite of programs for performing Probable Primality (PRP) tests of Generalised Fermat numbers 'b'2'n'+1 (GFNs) using a Fermat test. Optimised implementations are available for modern CPUs using single instruction, multiple data (SIMD ...

Resonance and Psychic Affirmation: A Comparison of Hartmut Rosa's and Daniel Haybron's Conceptions of Human Happiness

Constellations, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The paper compares Hartmut Rosa's resonance theory of “the good life” and Daniel Haybron's psychic affirmation theory of “happiness,” which he differentiates, as a descriptive notion, from “well‐being” as an evaluative notion. Haybron suggests that a central determinant of happiness has to be the somewhat reliable occurrence of positive ...

The Miller–Rabin test with randomized exponents

Journal of Mathematical Cryptology, 2009
We analyze a variant of the well-known Miller–Rabin test, that may be useful in preventing side-channel attacks to the random prime generation on smart cards: In the Miller–Rabin primality test for a positive integer n, one computes repeatedly the ...

From talking tools to metahumans: social interaction, semiotic skill, and the authority of AI chatbots Des outils parlants aux métahumains : interactions sociales, compétences sémiotiques et autorité des robots conversationnels

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
What does it take to turn a tool into a talking tool and that into an ultimate authority? Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) in its diverse forms, such as large language models (LLMs), is celebrated as a useful tool. But LLM‐based conversational agents, or chatbots, the software applications through which ordinary users are likely to engage ...

LOGIC, PRIMES AND COMPUTATION: A TALE OF UNREST

TASK Quarterly, 2005
The early connections between Mathematical Logic and Computer Science date back to the thirties and to the birth itself of modern Theoretical Computer Science, and concern computability.

‘More Beastliness Than Beauty’: Gendering Pica in Seventeenth‐Century English Medicine and Culture

Gender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Today, defined as the ‘persistent eating of non‐nutritive substances’, pica is a lesser‐known eating disorder with a long history. Defined in early modern England as the ‘desire to eat absurd things’, pica was explicitly gendered, associated with pregnant women and pubescent girls.

GROWING GREEN IN US SUBURBIA: Property Value, Race and Domestic Landscaping Aesthetics in Mid‐Century America

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Much of the current popular and academic literature on the provision of green spaces is dominated by the assumption that ‘nature’ is an unalloyed positive, and that socioeconomic and racial exclusion from access to green spaces is a problem of unequal spatial distribution rather than of the form and content of particular urban designs.

The Mysterious Stranger and Modern Enchantment

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sociological accounts of modernity have long emphasized rationalization, alienation, and the attenuation of affective intensity. While these diagnoses capture crucial dynamics of modern social order, they leave underexplored a persistent and generative dimension of social life: enchantment.
