Characteristic Scales, Scaling, and Geospatial Analysis [PDF]
Geographical phenomena fall into two categories: scaleful phenomena and scale-free phenomena. The former bears characteristic scales, and the latter has no characteristic scale. The conventional quantitative and mathematical methods can only be effectively applied to scaleful geographical phenomena rather than the scale-free geographical phenomena.

The scales of the infrared [PDF]
Abstract In theories with long-range forces like QED or perturbative gravity, loop corrections lead to vanishing amplitudes. There are two well-known procedures to address these infrared divergences: dressing of asymptotic states and inclusion of soft emission.

Scale-invariant scale-channel networks: Deep networks that generalise to previously unseen scales [PDF]
The ability to handle large scale variations is crucial for many real world visual tasks. A straightforward approach for handling scale in a deep network is to process an image at several scales simultaneously in a set of scale channels. Scale invariance can then, in principle, be achieved by using weight sharing between the scale channels together ...

India’s RMNCH+A Strategy: approach, learnings and limitations
Building on the gains of the National Health Mission, India’s Reproductive, Maternal, Newborn, Child and Adolescent Health (RMNCH+A) Strategy, launched in 2013, was a milestone in the country’s health planning. The strategy recognised the interdependence

Is this scaling nonlinear? [PDF]
One of the most celebrated findings in complex systems in the last decade is that different indexes y (e.g. patents) scale nonlinearly with the population x of the cities in which they appear, i.e. y ∼ x β

Fractional Derivatives and Integrals: What Are They Needed For?
The question raised in the title of the article is not philosophical. We do not expect general answers of the form “to describe the reality surrounding us”.

Metal-halide perovskites are promising photovoltaic materials, but fundamental questions remain open due to their structural complexity. Here the authors show, by correlated microscopy and spectroscopy methods, that epitaxially induced lattice ...

Scaling properties of scale-free networks in degree-thresholding renormalization flows [PDF]
We study the statistical properties of observables of scale-free networks in the degree-thresholding renormalization (DTR) flows. For BA scale-free networks with different sizes, we find that their structural and dynamical observables have similar scaling behavior in the DTR flow.
