Assessing the Impact of Promotions on Consumer Purchasing Behavior During Crises

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how households modify their food expenditure decisions during times of crisis is essential because consumer purchasing behavior frequently changes during these times. This study looks at these behavioral shifts during the COVID‐19 pandemic, concentrating on how price sensitivity and response to sales promotions changed over the ...

Limitations of Foundation Models in Energy Materials Simulations: A Case Study in Polyanion Sodium Cathode Materials

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Several simulation techniques are used to explore static and dynamic behavior in polyanion sodium cathode materials. The study reveals that universal machine learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) struggle with system‐specific chemistry, emphasizing the need for tailored datasets.

Comparison of DeePMD, MTP, GAP, ACE and MACE Machine‐Learned Potentials for Radiation‐Damage Simulations: A User Perspective

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
The authors evaluated six machine‐learned interatomic potentials for simulating threshold displacement energies and tritium diffusion in LiAlO2 essential for tritium production. Trained on the same density functional theory data and benchmarked against traditional models for accuracy, stability, displacement energies, and cost, Moment Tensor Potential ...

A Breadth‐First Pruned‐Enriched Rosenbluth Method for Force–Extension Simulations of Confined Semiflexible Chains

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
The behaviors of semiflexible polymers such as DNA and protein are often reshaped by coupled interactions. Monte Carlo simulations assist in studying these systems. This work recasts the traditional chain‐growth strategy into a new framework: a fixed number of chains grow synchronously, while less relevant chains to the target system are removed and ...

ANALYSIS OF A DISCRETE-TIME IMPATIENT CUSTOMER QUEUE WITH BERNOULLI-SCHEDULE VACATION INTERRUPTION [PDF]

International Journal of Mathematical Modelling & Computations, 2016
This paper investigates a discrete-time impatient customer queue with Bernoulli-schedule vacation interruption. The  vacation times and the service times during regular busy period and during working vacation period are assumed to follow geometric ...

Interpretable Short‐Term Electric Load Forecasting

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A temporal fusion transformer is implemented to generate day‐ahead forecasts of the hourly electrical load of a departmentbuilding at an Italian university. A forecasting performance improvement of more than 25% compared with established benchmark models and a provision of inherent robust interpretability insights reveal the potential of this model for

Lost in aggregation? On the importance of local food price data for food poverty estimates

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores within‐country variations in food price dynamics and food poverty estimates by employing local market price data and national consumer price index (CPI) data. Our results show that national CPI data may be useful for approximating national trends but they fail to detect and identify spatial variations in local trends, which

A Stochastic Service System with N-Policy, Bernoulli Interruption Vacations and Patient Server

Axioms
This paper studies a stochastic service system with N-policy, Bernoulli interruption vacations, and a patient server. When the number of waiting customers reaches the threshold N during a vacation, the server interrupts the vacation with probability p(0 ...

Using photovoice to understand community perceptions of firearm risks and protective factors among Asian Americans

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study used photovoice methodology to explore Asian Americans' perspectives on the root causes and protective factors of firearm violence in their communities. Photovoice provided a participatory platform for community members to document lived experiences and identify priorities for change.
