Controllable Intrinsic Surface Pattern Generation Using Slime Mold Simulations

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Surface‐based pattern simulations have proven valuable for texture design and scientific visualization, but existing methods face several limitations. Most simulations either target a narrow range of pattern types (e.g. spots, branching) or support a broad range of patterns at the cost of time‐consuming parameter tuning.

Does Digitalization Widen Labor Income Inequality?

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We develop a growth model that endogenizes the occupational choice of workers with different ability levels to study how digitalization affects labor income inequality. The framework incorporates digitalization's multifaceted effects on the economy: (i) it influences economic growth through automation, and (ii) it affects labor income ...

The hybrid grey wolf optimization-slime mould algorithm

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2020
Abstract In this paper, we hybridize the grey wolf optimization (GWO) algorithm with the newly proposed slime mould algorithm (SMA). Comparisons had been made and three kinds of benchmark functions were introduced to verify the capability. 100 Monte Carlo simulation experiments had been carried on to reduce the influence of randomness as

Gradient-Boosted Decision Tree with used Slime Mould Algorithm (SMA) for wastewater treatment systems

Journal of Water Reuse and Desalination, 2023
One way to improve the infrastructure, operations, monitoring, maintenance, and management of wastewater treatment systems is to use machine learning modelling to make smart forecasting, tracking, and failure prediction systems.

An Enhanced Slime Mould Algorithm Based on Best–Worst Management for Numerical Optimization Problems

Biomimetics
The Slime Mould Algorithm (SMA) is a widely used swarm intelligence algorithm. Encouraged by the theory of no free lunch and the inherent shortcomings of the SMA, this work proposes a new variant of the SMA, called the BWSMA, in which three improvement ...

Circumscription of three new taxa of Merismopedia‐like Cyanobacteria shows how far convergent evolution can go

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The genus Merismopedia (Merismopediaceae, Chroococcales), characterized by rectangular colonies with cells arranged in regular perpendicular rows and columns, represents a challenging study system due to its limited cultivability. The genus recently underwent taxonomic revision using cultivation‐independent techniques and a polyphasic approach.

Evidentiary Interpretation, Discursive Injustice, and Rap on Trial

Philosophy &Public Affairs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The submission of rap lyrics as inculpatory evidence (Rap on Trial) is an active prosecution tactic deployed in United States criminal trials. In this paper, I argue that interpretive ambiguity in rap lyrics is exploited in Rap on Trial cases, constituting a novel form of discursive injustice: extractive discursive injustice.
