No Apologies? The Role of Apology for Structural‐Historical Injustice
Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT During this era of political apologies, a new literature has emerged in historical injustice interrogating the relationship between structural and historical injustice, with various theories conceptualising the relationship in different ways. Interestingly, ‘apology’ rarely appears in this literature.

Emergent behaviors in multiagent pursuit evasion games within a bounded 2D grid world
Scientific ReportsThis study investigates emergent behaviors in multi-agent pursuit-evasion games within a bounded 2D grid world, where both pursuers and evaders employ multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) algorithms to develop adaptive strategies.

Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

Income tax evasion in a society of heterogeneous agents: Evidence from an agent-based model [PDF]
We analyze the evolution and extent of income tax evasion under alternative governmental policies in an agent-based model with heterogeneous agents. A novel aspect of our modeling is the use of an exponential utility function, which allows us to assume ...

Control strategies in multi-player pursuit and evasion game
, 2005 This paper presents a new methodology for solving multi-player pursuit and evasion games. The proposed control strategies are derived from direct differentiation of chosen value (or level set) functions, instead of solving the associated Hamilton Jacobi ...

Variational Approach to Pursuit-Evasion Game with Curvature Constraint
, 2000 In this thesis, a pursuit-evasion game, in which the pursuer moves with simple motion whereas the evader moves at a fixed speed but with a curvature constraint, is investigated. The game is the inverse of the usual homicidal chauffeur game. Square of the

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.We used GPS video camera collar data from barren‐ground caribou in the Porcupine and Western Arctic herds to validate antler‐ and movement‐based methods for estimating annual reproductive metrics. Antler retention was highly accurate for estimating parturition, but the movement methods we tested performed marginally for estimating parturition and ...

Psychology &Marketing, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study introduces the Paradox of Escapism, exploring how the act of escaping reality can evolve from a short‐term avoidance strategy to a mechanism for self‐regulation and enhanced life satisfaction. Employing five rigorous, multimethod investigations, including qualitative interviews and sentiment analysis (Study 1), Structural Equation ...
