The Power of Unity: Collective Action and Smallholder Agricultural Performance in West Africa
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We analyze the impact of collective action through farmer‐based organizations (FBOs) on smallholders' farm performance and income inequality in Ghana, Benin, The Gambia, and Mali. We find that FBO membership increases cereal yield in Ghana and The Gambia, legume yield in Mali, ruminant numbers in Benin and The Gambia, and total farm income in ...

The Role of Certifications in Improving Household Food Security Among Peruvian Farmers
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Achieving global food security requires sustainable transformations in agri‐food systems. Voluntary Sustainability Standards (VSS) such as Organic and Fairtrade aim to internalize certain social and environmental costs while promoting more equitable value distribution, improved market access, and sustainable production practices.

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.This study reveals that sampling strategy (i.e., sampling size and approach) is a foundational prerequisite for building accurate and generalizable AI models in peptide discovery. Reaching a threshold of 7.5% of the total tetrapeptide sequence space was essential to ensure reliable predictions.

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.A low‐cost, self‐driving laboratory is developed to democratize autonomous materials discovery. Using this "frugal twin" hardware architecture with Bayesian optimization, the platform rapidly converges to target lower critical solution temperature (LCST) values while self‐correcting from off‐target experiments, demonstrating an accessible route to data‐

Primaries: The Unifying Force [PDF]
We present a formal model of intra-party politics to explain candidate selection within parties. We think of parties as heterogeneous groups of individuals who aim to implement a set of policies but who differ in their priorities.

Human‐Machine Mutual Trust Based Shared Control Framework for Intelligent Vehicles
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This work introduces a bidirectional‐trust‐driven shared control framework for human‐machine co‐driving. The method models human‐to‐machine trust from intention discrepancies and Bayesian skill assessment, and machine‐to‐human trust from integrated ability evaluation.
