Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 In the stop-signal paradigm, participants perform a primary reaction task, for example a visual or auditory discrimination task, and have to react to a go stimulus as quickly as possible with a specified motor response. In a certain percentage of trials,

Modeling stochastic innovation races [PDF]
Technological Forecasting and Social Change, 2002 Abstract We consider a firm moving towards a stochastic final destination to be chosen from a discrete set after a decision period. The decision period itself may be deterministic or stochastic. We assume the firm can move at variable innovation (R&D) speed associated with a monotone nondecreasing variable cost, and it can also stop and move anywhere.

New predictive model of the touchdown times in a high level 110 m hurdles.
PLoS ONE, 2022 The present study aimed to establish a more robust, reliable statistical model of touchdown times based on the data of elite 110 m hurdlers to precisely predict performance based on touchdown times.

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2023 BackgroundImmunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is one of the most common kidney diseases leading to renal injury. Of pediatric cases, 25%–30% progress into end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) in 20–25 years. Therefore, predicting and intervening in IgAN at an

Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, 2007 We introduce a toy model of the "rat race" in which individuals try to better themselves relative to the rest of the population. An individual is characterized by a real-valued fitness and each advances at a constant rate by an amount that depends on its standing in the population.

Signal Manipulation and the Causal Analysis of Racial Discrimination
Ergo, An Open Access Journal of Philosophy, 2023 Discussions of the causal status of race focus on the question of whether race itself can be experimentally manipulated. Yet many experiments testing for racial discrimination do not manipulate race, but rather a signal by which race influences an ...

Robust Modeling and Controls for Racing on the Edge
CoRR, 2022 Race cars are routinely driven to the edge of their handling limits in dynamic scenarios well above 200mph. Similar challenges are posed in autonomous racing, where a software stack, instead of a human driver, interacts within a multi-agent environment.

Optimally controlling nutrition and propulsion force in a long distance running race
Frontiers in Nutrition, 2023 IntroductionRunners competing in races are looking to optimize their performance. In this paper, a runner's performance in a race, such as a marathon, is formulated as an optimal control problem where the controls are: the nutrition intake throughout the

Race From the Inside: An Emerging Heterogeneous Race Model [PDF]
Journal of Social Issues, 2001 Race matters, influencing life experiences. Race is not a simple concept, and it is not a single category. Racial identity theories, however, typically handle race as a simple Black‐White dichotomy that overlooks within‐group heterogeneity, substituting a subgroup—young, low socioeconomic status, darker skinned men—for all African Americans.
