Microsphere Autolithography—A Scalable Approach for Arbitrary Patterning of Dielectric Spheres

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
MicroSphere Autolithography (µSAL) enables scalable fabrication of patchy particles with customizable surface motifs. Focusing light through dielectric microspheres creates well defined, tunable patches via a conformal poly(dopamine) photoresist. Nearly arbitrary surface patterns can be achieved, with the resolution set by the index contrast between ...

Penalty Strategies in Semiparametric Regression Models

Mathematical and Computational Applications
This study includes a comprehensive evaluation of six penalty estimation strategies for partially linear models (PLRMs), focusing on their performance in the presence of multicollinearity and their ability to handle both parametric and nonparametric ...

Improved estimation of the covariance matrix of stock returns with an application to portofolio selection [PDF]

This paper proposes to estimate the covariance matrix of stock returns by an optimally weighted average of two existing estimators: the sample covariance matrix and single-index covariance matrix.

Local Thermal Conductivity Patterning in Rotating Lattice Crystals of Anisotropic Sb2S3

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Microscale control of thermal conductivity in Sb2S3 is demonstrated via laser‐induced rotating lattice crystals. Thermal conductivity imaging reveals marked thermal transport anisotropy, with the c axis featuring amorphous‐like transport, whereas in‐plane directions (a, b) exhibit 3.5x and 1.7x larger thermal conductivity.

Unusual Swelling Behavior of Hydrogels Modified with Spiropyran as Appendage or Crosslinker

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Not so innocent after all—spiropyran crosslinkers in methylenebisacrylamide‐crosslinked poly(acrylamide‐co‐acrylic acid) hydrogels increase crosslinking density, but also, counterintuitively, increase swelling. Charge complexation, cooperative chemo‐mechanical effects, and aggregation may explain these observations.

Direction of Arrival (DOA) Estimation Using a Deep Unfolded Learned Iterative Shrinkage Thresholding Algorithm (LISTA) Network in a Non-Uniform Metasurface

Remote Sensing
This paper proposes a novel method for Direction of Arrival (DOA) estimation using a deep unfolded LISTA network in a non-uniform metasurface. Traditional DOA estimation methods often face challenges such as limited accuracy, high computational ...

4D Mapping of ZIF Biocomposites for High Protein Loading and Tunable Release Profiles

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Systematic four‐dimensional mapping of zeolitic imidazolate framework biocomposites reveals how precursor ratios, total concentration, and washing define crystalline phase, protein loading, and release kinetics. This comprehensive study identifies conditions yielding record loading (∼85%) and precise phase–property correlations.

A Shrinkage Instrumental Variable Estimator for Large Datasets [PDF]

This paper proposes and discusses an instrumental variable estimator that can be of particular relevance when many instruments are available. Intuition and recent work (see, e.g., Hahn (2002)) suggest that parsimonious devices used in the construction of

Preliminary test-shrinkage estimators

Suid-Afrikaanse Tydskrif vir Natuurwetenskap en Tegnologie, 1983
The advantages of using the very simple shrinkage estimator TL proposed by Lemmer rather than that proposed by Mehta and Srivivasan in the case of preliminary test estimators for parameters of the normal, binomial and Poisson distributions are examined.
