Abrupt transitions in time series with uncertainties

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Most time series techniques tend to ignore data uncertainties, which results in inaccurate conclusions. Here, Goswami et al. represent time series as a sequence of probability density functions, and reliably detect abrupt transitions by identifying ...

Agility in Transdisciplinary Research [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 7th International Conference on ICT for Sustainability, 2020
Environmental challenges demand radically transdisciplinary approaches in order to respond to their complexity. Whilst transdisciplinarity has become a buzzword, less attention has been given to approaches that genuinely transcend disciplinary boundaries and support work within multifaceted and volatile research environments.

Transfer as a reciprocal process: How to foster receptivity to results of transdisciplinary research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Transdisciplinary research (TDR) seeks to address real-world problems and aims to be socially transformative. This normative objective extends beyond particular TDR projects, as real-world problems are embedded in concrete contexts but, at the same time,
