Hybrid Taguchi-Lévy flight distribution optimization algorithm for solving real-world design optimization problems

open access: yes, 2021
The Levy flight distribution optimization algorithm is a recently developed meta-heuristic. In this study, the Levy flight distribution optimization algorithm and the Taguchi method are hybridized to solve the shape optimization problem, which is the ...

Formulation and optimization of fenofibrate lipospheres using Taguchi's experimental design

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica, 2013
Fenofibrate lipospheres were prepared by the melt dispersion technique. Critical parameters influencing particle size and entrapment efficiency were optimized by applying the L9 Taguchi experimental design. Entrapment efficiency of up to 87 % was obtained for the optimized formulation on increasing olive oil up to 30 % in the lipid carrier.

Second Language Interactional Competence in Roleplay: Comparing Generative Artificial Intelligence and Human Interlocutors

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract This study explores the potential of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) as an alternative to human interlocutors for assessing interactional competence (IC) in a second language (L2). Thirty L2 English speakers completed a 6‐item roleplay task designed to elicit refusals of requests, invitations, and offers, interacting with both a ...

Revisiting the Molecular Roadmap for Sugar Crops: Genome Reading, Trait Writing and Variety Redesigning

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sugar crops, including but not limited to sugarcane, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and stevia, are major sources of sugar production in the world. However, conventional breeding approaches, limited by long breeding cycles, low efficiency and restricted capacity to improve complex traits in sugar crops, are increasingly insufficient to address the ...

Successful replacement of the urinary bladder following exteriorisation during bite‐induced scrotal trauma in a domestic rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus)

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, August 2026.
Abstract Scrotal exteriorisation of abdominal viscera is rarely reported in domestic rabbits and constitutes a surgical emergency. This report describes traumatic inguinoscrotal herniation of the urinary bladder in a domestic rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), a 4‐month‐old entire male, following bite‐induced scrotal avulsion during territorial aggression.

Multi-objective optimization of visual and tactile desirability of wooden textures

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing
Affective and aesthetic qualities of textures largely depend on their visual and tactile features. However, to date, no systematic methods have been established for the design of such textures.
