Complementarity in alliances: How strategic compatibility and hierarchy promote efficient cooperation in international security

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract How can defense alliances reap the efficiency gains of working together when coordination and opportunism costs are high? Although specializing as part of a collective comes with economic and functional benefits, states must bargain over the distribution of those gains and ensure the costs of collective action are minimized.

Automating Archaeological Discovery: Assessing Geospatial Artificial Intelligence (GeoAI) Tools for Stone Wall Identification in Kweneng, South Africa

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The discovery of archaeological sites traditionally entails the utilisation of physically demanding exploration methodologies, including terrain surveying and the analysis of historical records. Recent technological developments have led to an increased use of non‐invasive remote sensing techniques, including Google Earth, LiDAR and aerial ...

Bayesian inference for dynamic Q matrices and attribute trajectories in hidden Markov diagnostic classification models

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Hidden Markov diagnostic classification models capture how students' cognitive attributes evolve over time. This paper introduces a Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for diagnostic classification models that jointly estimates time‐varying Q matrices, latent attributes, item parameters, attribute class proportions and transition ...

Brain viral reservoir seeding and neurological metabolic dysregulation in early‐life immunodeficiency virus infection

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Brain viral reservoirs were undetectable in neonatal SIV during the first 3 days post infection; antiretroviral therapy (ART) at 3 dpi prevented brain reservoir seeding and normalized metabolic function, highlighting the necessity of very early treatment to protect the developing CNS.

Variable electrophysiology before and after block of the two delayed rectifier potassium channels in groups of isolated rabbit ventricular cells

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Between‐cell differences in ventricular cardiomyocyte action potential duration (APD) and responses to ion channel block may contribute to pro‐arrhythmic dispersion of myocardial repolarisation. This study quantifies between‐cell physiological and pharmacological variability in the rabbit left ventricle (LV) and uses ...

Pharmacological treatment with a GABA(A) receptor modulator and a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor as a mitigation strategy against aircraft noise‐induced cardiovascular and neuronal damage

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Noise pollution, particularly by aircraft, is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Aircraft noise activates stress response pathways in the brain, via the amygdala, the sympathetic nervous system and the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis.

MYC Addiction as a Targetable Vulnerability in Nelarabine‐Resistant T‐Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
MYC drives nelarabine resistance in T‐ALL via a hyperactive transcriptional program. Pharmacological degradation of BET proteins dismantles this addiction, restoring drug sensitivity and extending survival in vivo. ABSTRACT Acquired resistance represents a fundamental obstacle limiting the long‐term efficacy of cancer chemotherapy.

2D Piecewise Linear Scalar Fields with Invertible Integral Lines

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Integral lines of the gradient flow are standard features in continuously differentiable scalar fields that enjoy some useful properties: They cover the domain densely, do not split, merge, or intersect, and are therefore invertible. For widely used discretizations of scalar fields, the corresponding polygonal approximations of integral lines ...

Terrain Synthesis and Authoring based on Iso‐Contours

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Digital terrains are central to realistic landscape depiction, yet authoring tools must balance perceptual realism with intuitive artistic control. We propose a compact vector‐based representation that models terrain as nested iso‐contours, inspired by geomorphology and cartography.

Survey on differential estimators for 3d point clouds

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advancements in 3D scanning technologies, including LiDAR and photogrammetry, have enabled the precise digital replication of real‐world objects. These methods are widely used in fields such as GIS, robotics, and cultural heritage. However, the point clouds generated by such scans are often noisy and unstructured, posing challenges for ...
