Epistocracy and the Commitment Problem

Philosophy &Public Affairs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The epistocracy debate has turned largely on the character of the electorate—what voters know, whether competence filters can be designed well, and what filtered selection produces. Another strand has focused on the legitimacy of epistocratic justifications. I ask instead about the equilibrium effects of the institution.

Adaptive Measurement Partitioning Algorithm for a Gaussian Inverse Wishart PHD Filter that Tracks Closely Spaced Extended Targets [PDF]

Radioengineering, 2017
Use of the Gaussian inverse Wishart probability hypothesis density (GIW-PHD) filter has demonstrated promise as an approach to track an unknown number of extended targets.

A Novel Sequential Monte Carlo-Probability Hypothesis Density Filter for Particle Impoverishment Problem

, 2016
As a typical implementation of the probability hypothesis density (PHD) filter, sequential Monte Carlo PHD (SMC-PHD) is widely employed in highly nonlinear systems.

Sound‐offset encoding is related to speech‐in‐noise perception at sentence level in older adults

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic summary of the study investigating sound‐onset and offset sensitivity in the brain of older adults. EEG responses to white‐noise bursts were recorded to examine neural encoding of sound onset and offset during passive listening and active task conditions.

Impact of Crude Oil Contamination on Green Leafy Vegetables: Nutritional and Health Risk Assessments

Remediation Journal, Volume 36, Issue 2, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT For decades, crude oil spills have been a serious environmental challenge which have led to the establishment of crude oil remediation intervention values (CRIV) by different national agencies to regulate the release of toxic petroleum hydrocarbons via these spills.

State Estimation and Smoothing for the Probability Hypothesis Density Filter

, 2010
Tracking multiple objects is a challenging problem for an automated system, with applications in many domains. Typically the system must be able to represent the posterior distribution of the state of the targets, using a recursive algorithm that takes ...

Mind the Gap: Performance Limits of Automated Contour Extraction Methods for Individual Monitoring of Bottlenose Dolphins

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Reliable extraction of dolphin whistle contours is fundamental for scalable analyses of vocal identity, repertoire structure, and individual‐based acoustic monitoring. We evaluated four algorithms for fundamental frequency estimation of common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) whistles, leveraging a benchmark dataset of annotated ...

Sodium Channel Blockers Demonstrate Binding Affinity for the Tandem Tudor Domain of the Epigenetic Hub UHRF1

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 17, 14 September 2026.
An investigation of the tandem Tudor domain (TTD) domain of UHRF1 identified and extensively characterized the local anesthetic hydroxyprocaine as a strong ligand capable of activating related genes such as p53 and also highlighted a new, potentially druggable intramolecular interaction between TTD and UBL.

A Gaussian Mixture CPHD Filter for Multi-Target Tracking in Target-Dependent False Alarms

Remote Sensing
The estimation of the target number and individual tracks are two major tasks in multi-target tracking. The main shortcoming of traditional tracking methods is the cumbersome data association between measurements and targets. The cardinalized probability

Ancient DNA Reveals Limited Hunter‐Gatherer Ancestry in the Cerny Culture (Middle Neolithic, France) Despite Hunting‐Associated Practices

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 191, Issue 1, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The arrival of the Neolithic way of life in Europe is associated with the migration of Anatolian farmers and their admixture with local hunter‐gatherers. In the Paris Basin (Northern France), the Middle Neolithic Cerny culture (4700–4300 bce) combines agricultural practices with funerary items linked to hunting, suggesting a particular ...
