Protection Motivation Theory and Farmers' Participation in Futures Markets: Evidence From Germany

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines why German farmers show limited adoption of commodity futures contracts despite substantial price volatility, applying Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) to understand the cognitive processes driving participation decisions in futures markets. Survey data from 303 German farmers collected in 2024 were analyzed using Partial

A study of factors affecting the utility of implicit relevance feedback [PDF]

, 2005
Implicit relevance feedback (IRF) is the process by which a search system unobtrusively gathers evidence on searcher interests from their interaction with the system. IRF is a new method of gathering information on user interest and, if IRF is to be used

The Influence of Common Language on the Trade of Wheat and Bakery Products

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines whether sharing a common official language increases the probability that two countries engage in bilateral trade of wheat and bakery products. Using a binary choice framework applied to 54,780 country‐pair observations for 2023, probit and logit models of the extensive margin of trade are estimated, with a focus on whether

Cell Segmentation Beyond 2D—A Review of the State‐of‐the‐Art

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Cell segmentation underpins many biological image analysis tasks, yet most deep learning methods remain limited to 2D despite the inherently 3D nature of cellular processes. This review surveys segmentation approaches beyond 2D, comparing 2.5D and fully 3D methods, analyzing 31 models and 32 volumetric datasets, and introducing a unified reference ...

A cluster-based resampling method for pseudo-relevance feedback

, 2008
Typical pseudo-relevance feedback methods assume the topretrieved documents are relevant and use these pseudo-relevant documents to expand terms. The initial retrieval set can, however, contain a great deal of noise.

Physics‐Grounded Probabilistic Bits for Hardware‐Efficient Intelligent Inference and Optimization

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Si–SiNx interface traps are harnessed as a complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor‐compatible source of controllable randomness for probabilistic bits. Pulse‐width‐programmed stochastic capture converts nanoscale defect dynamics into Boltzmann‐consistent binary outputs, while a physics‐based Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis model ...
