Associations between cortisol awakening response and resting electroencephalograph asymmetry [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2019
The cortisol awakening response (CAR), a rapid cortisol rise in the morning after awakening, has been proposed to provide energy to cope with daily demands and suggested to be associated with brain functions.

The general structure of quantum resource theories [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In recent years it was recognized that properties of physical systems such as entanglement, athermality, and asymmetry, can be viewed as resources for important tasks in quantum information, thermodynamics, and other areas of physics.

Benchmarking one-shot distillation in general quantum resource theories

open access: yes, 2020
We study the one-shot distillation of general quantum resources, providing a unified quantitative description of the maximal fidelity achievable in this task, and revealing similarities shared by broad classes of resources.

Tidal Turbines’ Layout in a Stream with Asymmetry and Misalignment

open access: yesEnergies, 2017
A refined assessment of tidal currents variability is a prerequisite for successful turbine deployment in the marine environment. However, the numerical evaluation of the tidal kinetic energy resource relies, most of the time, on integrated parameters ...

Accounting Comparability and Cash Holdings in Vietnam

open access: yesInternational Journal of Financial Studies, 2021
The management of cash requires careful considerations to allow firms to benefit from proper resource allocations while mitigating agency issues. Accounting comparability can play an important role in tackling information asymmetry and agency cost, thus ...

Environmental, social, and governance information disclosure and stock price crash risk: Evidence from Chinese listed companies

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
According to information asymmetry theory and stakeholder theory, this article explores the impact and mechanism of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) information disclosure on the company’s future stock price crash risk based on the A-share ...

Learning-Based Constraint Satisfaction With Sensing Restrictions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper we consider graph-coloring problems, an important subset of general constraint satisfaction problems that arise in wireless resource allocation. We constructively establish the existence of fully decentralized learning-based algorithms that

Can multitrophic interactions shape morphometry, allometry, and fluctuating asymmetry of seed-feeding insects?

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Body size is commonly associated with biological features such as reproductive capacity, competition, and resource acquisition. Many studies have tried to understand how these isolated factors can affect the body pattern of individuals.

A Channel Allocation Method Considering the Asymmetry of Available Channels for Centralized Underwater Cognitive Acoustic Networks

open access: yesSensors, 2023
Due to the unpredictable presence of Non-Cognitive Users (NCUs) in the time and frequency domains, the number of available channels (i.e., channels where no NCUs exist) and corresponding channel indices per Cognitive User (CU) may differ.
