Not All Missing Data are Equal: Choosing the Right Imputation Method for Binary Datasets

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Missing binary predictors are common in reliability, quality control, and industrial decision systems, yet imputation methods are often chosen by convenience rather than evidence. We conduct a Monte Carlo study comparing mode substitution, sequential hot‐deck, missForest, MICE, and KNN with three neighbourhood sizes under MCAR, MAR, and MNAR ...

Permutation-Based Hash Chains with Application to Password Hashing

IACR Transactions on Symmetric Cryptology
Hash chain based password systems are a useful way to guarantee authentication with one-time passwords. The core idea dates back to Lamport, and is specified in RFC 1760 as S/Key. At CCS 2017, Kogan et al.

World Models for Robotic Manipulation: A Survey

SmartBot, EarlyView.
World models enable robots to anticipate how candidate actions may alter object configurations, contact states, and scene geometry before physical execution. This survey examines world models for robotic manipulation as action‐conditioned predictive systems and organizes the literature according to predicted representations, interfaces between ...

Revisiting industry effects: The assignment of firms to industries

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Strategy research examines the drivers of firm performance. Variance decomposition studies have analyzed industry's impact, with little attention paid to the industry to which a firm is assigned. This study investigates how industry assignment affects the findings about industry's impact.

Limited capacity for rapid acclimation to marine heatwaves in coastal invertebrates

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Across 10 coastal invertebrate species, we provide a rare multi‐species test of rapid acclimation to realistic marine heatwaves. Responses are consistently weak, revealing that short‐term plasticity cannot keep pace with warming and may lead to underestimated vulnerability in coastal ecosystems. Abstract Marine heatwaves are increasing in frequency and

The Mysterious Stranger and Modern Enchantment

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sociological accounts of modernity have long emphasized rationalization, alienation, and the attenuation of affective intensity. While these diagnoses capture crucial dynamics of modern social order, they leave underexplored a persistent and generative dimension of social life: enchantment.

Pseudorandomness in the (Inverseless) Haar Random Oracle Model

We study the (in)feasibility of quantum pseudorandom notions in a quantum analog of the random oracle model, where all the parties, including the adversary, have oracle access to the same Haar random unitary. In this model, we show the following: - (Unbounded-query secure) pseudorandom unitaries (PRU) exist.

Quantum‐Enhanced Weighted Gene Co‐Expression Network Analysis Reveals Regulatory Networks Underlying Sexual Size Dimorphism in Macrobrachium nipponense

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
A quantum‐enhanced weighted gene co‐expression network analysis framework integrating quantum amplitude amplification is developed to overcome sample size constraints in zoological genomics. This noise‐tolerant analytical strategy enables robust network reconstruction for non‐model species with limited biological replicates.
