Journal of Computer and System Sciences, 2014 We consider a bio-inspired formal operation on words called prefix-suffix duplication which consists in the duplication of a prefix or suffix of a given word. The class of languages defined by the iterated application of the prefix-suffix duplication to a word is considered.

Utterance evolution: the road to generative, combinatorial communicators
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Language has long been considered uniquely complex in the animal kingdom; however, animal research over the last decade has begun to challenge some long‐standing premises about exactly which language capacities are uniquely human. The task of resolving why and how complex communication systems evolve, particularly human language, has ...

Elaborating the Motivations and Attitudes Driving Interest in Voluntary Biodiversity Credits
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Global biodiversity loss has prompted the search for new sources of conservation finance, such as voluntary biodiversity credits (VBCs). However, despite optimistic market projections, current uptake of VBCs is limited. Adopting an interpretive approach, we analyse 21 semistructured interviews with early market actors (buyers, sellers ...

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.This study introduces an MPTS‐modified MXene current collector for anode‐free lithium metal batteries (AFLMBs). A key advantage of MPTS‐MXene is its ultralight weight, only 15% as heavy as standard copper per unit volume. Its special layered structure and Si‐O rich surface help lithium deposit smoothly and flat, while forming a protective layer that ...
