Gambling harms, stigmatisation and discrimination: A qualitative naturalistic forum analysis. by Katy Penfold, Laura Louise Nicklin, Darren Chadwick, Joanne Lloyd

“…Five main themes were identified: (a) beliefs about the nature and origin of gambling addiction, which related to participants' beliefs about causes of gambling harm and cognitions about the nature of addiction; (b) self-stigma, which encompassed the frequent and substantial incidences of self-stigma; (c) anticipated stigma, which described the stigma and discrimination people expected to face because of their gambling harm; (d) stigmatising other people who experience gambling harm, which describes the ways in which some people who experienced gambling harms stigmatised other people who experienced gambling harms; and (e) experienced stigma and discrimination, which encompassed the experienced stigmatisation people encountered. …”

Plant Leaf Recognition through Local Discriminative Tangent Space Alignment by Chuanlei Zhang, Shanwen Zhang, Weidong Fang

“…Manifold learning based dimensionality reduction algorithms have been payed much attention in plant leaf recognition as the algorithms can select a subset of effective and efficient discriminative features in the leaf images. In this paper, a dimensionality reduction method based on local discriminative tangent space alignment (LDTSA) is introduced for plant leaf recognition based on leaf images. …”

Dual Generative Network with Discriminative Information for Generalized Zero-Shot Learning by Tingting Xu, Ye Zhao, Xueliang Liu

“…Recent methods focus on learning a unified semantic-aligned visual representation to transfer knowledge between two domains, while ignoring the intrinsic characteristics of visual features which are discriminative enough to be classified by itself. To solve the above problems, we propose a novel model that uses the discriminative information of visual features to optimize the generative module, in which the generative module is a dual generation network framework composed of conditional VAE and improved WGAN. …”

Discriminating between flint outcrops in central north Bulgaria: archaeological implications by Maria Gurova, Polina Andreeva, Elitsa Stefanova

“…Another lies in the drastic shift in raw material preferences (ergo, procurement system) between large-scale newly excavated BA/EIA assemblages and their ‘Chalcolithic predecessors’ and thus raises the question of what the key factors in such a transformation were; the third relates to the opportunity to reliably discriminate between the outcrops and the artefacts/assemblages affiliated to them. …”
