On the sensitivity of generic porous optical sensors [PDF]
A porous material was considered as a platform for optical sensing. It was envisaged that the porous material was infiltrated by a fluid which contains an agent to be sensed.

Relative dispersion analysis enhances perimetric sensitivity
Objective identification of minor visual field defects is problematic. A possible solution is to examine spatial correlations by means of relative dispersion analysis, a tool of fractal analysis. We studied patients with glaucoma, previous optic neuritis, chiasmal compression and lesions of the brain hemispheres, using high-pass resolution perimetry ...

Naturalized Epistemology and the Law of Evidence
In «Naturalized Epistemology and the Law of Evidence Revisited», the original target article for the various refutations that I comment on here, I revisited through a slightly different lens the subject of the article that I coauthored with Brian Leiter ...

Observation impact in data assimilation: the effect of non-Gaussian observation error [PDF]
Data assimilation methods which avoid the assumption of Gaussian error statistics are being developed for geoscience applications. We investigate how the relaxation of the Gaussian assumption affects the impact observations have within the assimilation ...

A heptagonal PCF-based oil sensor to detect fuel adulteration using terahertz spectrum
A heptagonal photonic crystal fiber-based oil sensor is proposed and numerically investigated in this paper in order to detect the adulteration of petrol with kerosene using terahertz (THz) signal.

Resting frontal asymmetry and reward sensitivity theory motivational traits [PDF]
The revised reinforcement sensitivity theory (rRST) of personality has conceptualized three main systems: the behavioural approach system (BAS), behavioural inhibition system (BIS), and fightflight- freeze system (FFFS). Research links greater relative

A relative entropy rate method for path space sensitivity analysis of stationary complex stochastic dynamics [PDF]
We propose a new sensitivity analysis methodology for complex stochastic dynamics based on the Relative Entropy Rate. The method becomes computationally feasible at the stationary regime of the process and involves the calculation of suitable observables

Bayesian estimation of diagnostic accuracy of fecal culture and PCR-based tests for the detection of Salmonella enterica in California cull dairy cattle. [PDF]
Epidemiological studies of low prevalence disease problems are often hindered by the high cost of diagnostic testing. The objective of this study was to evaluate PCR screening of both individual and pooled fecal samples from culled dairy cows for the ...

Distinguishing electronic and vibronic coherence in 2D spectra by their temperature dependence [PDF]
Long-lived oscillations in 2D spectra of chlorophylls are at the heart of an ongoing debate. Their physical origin is either a multi-pigment effect, such as excitonic coherence, or primarily stems from localized vibrations.
