Nature: Metaphysics + Metaphor (N:M+M) is an art experience and exhibition that explores the intersection of Nature, Art, Man, and Technology. This immersive experience aims to bridge physical and digital, tangible and intangible, and ephemeral and ...

A general approach for predicting indicator and pathogen decay in surface waters was developed using Bayesian hierarchical modeling, a persistence database, and a two-parameter model form. The resulting hierarchical regression describes general ...

• Indicators and pathogens persist longer at colder temperatures.
• Decay of viruses and protozoa may be more than 3x slower than that of FIB.
• A generalizable persistence model can support surface water management.

Exploring the emergence of cooperation in the populations of self-interested individuals is of huge challenge. Evolutionary game theory has been utilized to investigate the evolution of cooperation. In recent years, many researchers have paid ...

• A persistence-based game transition is proposed in multi-games.
• In our model, both pairwise interactive strategies and the persistence of pairwise strategies determine the game transition.
• The persistence-based game transition can ...

In the present article, we construct a logarithm transformation based Milstein-type method for the stochastic susceptible-infected-susceptible (SIS) epidemic model evolving in the domain (0, N). The new scheme is explicit and unconditionally ...$\mathrm{}$

We say that an imperative data structure is snapshottable or supports snapshots if we can efficiently capture its current state, and restore a previously captured state to become the current state again. This is useful, for example, to implement ...

This essay explores the robotic art installation 'Sisyphus,' interpreting its cyclical confrontation as a symbolic depiction of the ceaseless struggle between systemic power and collective resistance. By analyzing the dynamic reiteration of construction ...

Progressive Web Applications (PWAs) are web apps that blur the lines of differences with native apps thanks to advanced web technologies at their core. On the one hand, service workers (SWs) bring offline experience to users, background syncing, ...

This paper studies an impact of media epidemic system with diffusion and linear source. We first derive the uniform bounds of solutions to impact on media reaction diffusion system. Then, the basic reproduction number is calculated and the ...$$

In we-media era, recessive advertising frequently appears in the user-generated contents, especially in the short-form videos. Yet we know little about whether consumers are able to recognize recessive ads and their responses to recessive ads. In ...

In this paper, we study the question whether techniques employed, in a conventional system, by state-of-the-art concurrent algorithms to avoid contended hot spots are still efficient for recoverable computing in settings with Non-Volatile Memory (...

This paper applies fractional integration and cointegration methods to examine respectively the univariate properties of the four main cryptocurrencies in terms of market capitalization (BTC, ETH, USDT, BNB) and of four US stock market indices (S&...

• A focus on growth, mastery and accepting difficulty helps players persist past failure.
• Game failure facilitates persistence when players can identify a purpose.
• Learning-focused, positive and forgiving settings empower players to ...

Players who enjoy challenging games frequently face failure and must demonstrate persistence to succeed. Persistence through failure, albeit difficult to learn, is a skill that is valuable across many aspects of life. It may be useful to study ...

Environmental scientists frequently rely on time series of explanatory variables to explain their impact on an important response variable. However, sometimes, researchers are less interested in raw observations of an explanatory variable than in ...

• We developed indices from an environmental signal containing intermittent episodes.
• The indices carry episode intensity, memory, persistence, intermittence and timing.
• We illustrated indices’ effectiveness and applications in ...

The study aims to probe the roles of learning desire and persistence in influencing Gen Z learners' continuance intention of using YouTube for learning in digital learning context. Building upon prior research, a research framework with 10 ...

The Transformer is a highly successful deep learning model that has revolutionised the world of artificial neural networks, first in natural language processing and later in computer vision. This model is based on the attention mechanism and is ...

This paper focuses on the study of long-term behaviour of the stochastic logistic systems under Markov chain using delay feedback control based on discrete-time observations. Necessary conditions for extinction, persistence and ...

In 1989 Driscoll, Sarnak, Sleator, and Tarjan presented general space-efficient transformations for making ephemeral data structures persistent. The main contribution of this paper is to adapt this transformation to the functional model. We ...$\mathcal{}\left(\right)$$\mathcal{}\left(\right)$

In the context of foraging behaviour, a species can be classified as a generalist or a specialist based on the breadth of their diet. Specialist species have a restricted diet and occupy a much narrower niche, whereas generalist ...

The paper deals with the numerical positivity, convergence and dynamical behaviors (including extinction and persistence) for stochastic SIR model. For the real significance of the numerical analysis on stochastic SIR model, a linearly ...

To capture the transmission dynamics of hepatitis C virus, we propose and study a reaction–diffusion nonlinear SEICR model, which includes latent, acute, and chronic infection stages. We first establish the well-posedness and ...
