Correction factors for prey size estimation from PenguCams by Owen Dabkowski, Ursula Ellenberg, Thomas Mattern, Klemens Pütz, Pablo Garcia Borboroglu

“…This method requires a reference object with known dimensions (such as beak measurements) to ground truth your distance. Using PenguCams we determined the correction factor by measuring a 2 cm section of 1 mm grid paper from video footage taken at known distances (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 cm) in different salinities ranging from air and fresh water, up to 35 psu in 5 psu increments while controlling for temperature and pressure. …”

“Great Flood-Gates of the Wonder World”: Baptisms of Water and Fire in Melville and Hawthorne by Ariel Clark Silver

“…As Mary Bryden asserts, “the sea is the fluid medium, the agency, the culture” (107) through which Melville explores the philosophical depths and searches for elusive truth. He is astonished at the capacity of water to both save and destroy—Ishmael floats on a buoyant trunk after the Pequod is dismantled by the greatest creature of the sea—even as it binds all elements on earth together. …”

POSITIVISM AND ITS ADVERSARIES: BRADLEY, COLLINGWOOD, NIETZSCHE AND HEIDEGGER by Evaldas Nekrašas

“…Among theoretical reproaches against positivism, the most convincing, it seems, is Collingwood’s claim that positivism does not comprehend the role of absolute (unverifiable and unappraisable in truth-terms) presuppositions of science and does not understand that the task of metaphysics is to detect such propositions, yet it seems that not all positivists are to be blamed for this. …”

Learning to Boost the Performance of Stable Nonlinear Systems by Luca Furieri, Clara Lucia Galimberti, Giancarlo Ferrari-Trecate

“…Our methods enable learning over specific classes of deep neural network performance-boosting controllers for stable nonlinear systems; crucially, we guarantee <inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\mathcal {L}_{p}$</tex-math></inline-formula> closed-loop stability even if optimization is halted prematurely. When the ground-truth dynamics are uncertain, we learn over robustly stabilizing control policies. …”
