Doomsday or Multiverse Bias

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bayesian epistemology faces serious challenges when dealing with self‐locating evidence. This paper argues that, given two modest assumptions about how confirmation should work (Patterning and Live Centers), Bayesianism faces an unavoidable dilemma.

(Co‐)Reference All the Way Down: A Unified Theory of (Pro) Nominals in Ordinary English

Theoria, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This essay joins two themes, both arising from Kripke's inspiring ideas in the theory of reference. The first theme concerns reference in general. The second examines the notion of co‐reference and the role it plays in a unified theory of pronouns for natural language.

Habitat Suitability for a Unique, Fully Marine American Manatee (Trichechus manatus) Population Primarily Depends on Presence of Submarine Freshwater Springs

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The American manatee (Trichechus manatus) requires freshwater mainly from rivers and springs to maintain osmoregulatory balance in saline environments. However, in Brazil's semi‐arid Potiguar Basin, manatees now rely solely on submarine freshwater springs because hypersaline estuaries have become unsuitable sources of freshwater.

On the random oracle hypothesis

Information and Control, 1982
Summary: Two counterexamples to the random oracle hypothesis as formalized by \textit{C. Bennett} and \textit{J. Gill} [SIAM J. Comput. 10, 96-113 (1981; Zbl 0454.68030)] are given. Then the future of the random oracle hypothesis in light of these examples is discussed.

Ramadan and the Iftar Meal: A Qualitative Exploration of Signs of Disordered Eating in Muslim Men and Women Living in the United Kingdom

Journal of Clinical Psychology, Volume 82, Issue 6, Page 927-937, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To qualitatively explore the lived experiences of fasting during Ramadan and the Iftar meal in Muslim adults with low self‐regulation (i.e., low ability to control) eating behavior. Methods Semistructured interviews were conducted with Muslim young adults, scoring below the threshold for low/moderate self‐regulation on the Self ...

Analysis of collision probability in Merkle trees in the random oracle model

Journal of Mathematical Cryptology
This work analyzes the probability of collisions in Merkle graphs, with a focus on a specific class of attacks in balanced Merkle trees. To provide a tractable model, each hash function is modeled as an independent random oracle with finite input space ...

Input Layer Regularization and Automated Regularization Hyperparameter Tuning for Myelin Water Estimation Using Deep Learning

NMR in Biomedicine, Volume 39, Issue 6, June 2026.
We propose a novel deep learning algorithm for predicting the myelin water fraction from multiple gradient‐echo or spin‐echo pulse sequences arising in magnetic resonance relaxometry (MRR) measurements of the human brain. Our method incorporates both regularized nonlinear least squares and pure deep learning through a concatenation paradigm known as ...
