Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

Higher glycaemic burden, measured by the Glycaemic Penalty Index (GPI), was independently associated with increased risk of healthcare‐associated infection in surgical inpatients. GPI provides a single, clinically interpretable summary of both hyperglycaemia and hypoglycaemia. Abstract Aims To evaluate the utility of the Glycemic Penalty Index (GPI), a

Managing agency business groups, elite directors, and the rubber boom, 1897–1913
Abstract We identify a new organizational form, the Managing Agency Business Group (MABG), demonstrating how agency houses used interlocking directorships to build groups on the basis of commercial and plantation expertise to access finance on London stock markets and local capital markets in the pre‐1914 rubber boom.

Antipredatory Strategies of Anurans: An Updated Conceptual Review
To unravel the evolutionary dynamics of predator–prey interactions, we propose an updated, three‐tiered classification of anuran antipredatory strategies. By mapping non‐behavioral, individual, and group defenses across five functional phases, this integrative framework introduces the concept of synergetic coupling.
