Self-Confirming Biased Beliefs in Organizational “Learning by Doing” by Sanghyun Park, Phanish Puranam

“…We provide a formal definition for self-confirming biased beliefs as an attractor that can lock learning by doing systems into suboptimal actions and provide illustrations based on simulations. We then compare and distinguish self-confirming biased beliefs from other related theoretical constructs, including confirmation bias, self-fulfilling prophecies, and sticking points, and underscore that self-confirming biased beliefs underlie inefficient self-confirming equilibria and hot-stove effects. …”

Farber Disease Mimicking Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: The First Reported Case in Qatar and Review of the Literature by Amal Al-Naimi, Haneen Toma, Sara G. Hamad, Tawfeg Ben Omran

“…The diagnosis was later confirmed genetically by the presence of a homozygous pathogenic variant (p.Gly213Glu; c.638G > A in exon 8) in the ASAH1 gene. The present case illustrates the diagnostic journey of a child with Farber disease as well as highlights that FD should be considered in the differential diagnosis of early onset arthritis in the presence of subcutaneous nodules and/or hoarseness of voice.…”

Optimization in Construction Management Using Adaptive Opposition Slime Mould Algorithm by Pham Vu Hong Son, Luu Ngoc Quynh Khoi

“…Two typical construction projects have introduced time, cost, quality, and safety trade-off (TCQS), which are the factors that have the greatest influence on the completion of a construction project and are represented by optimal results and obtained at Pareto, in order to better illustrate the potential of the proposed model. In order to compare AOSMA with a nondominated sorting genetic algorithm III (NSGA III), multiobjective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO), LHS-based NSGA III, and a hybrid model of MAWA (MAWA-TLBO, MAWA-GA, MAWA-AS, and MAWA-ACS-SGPU) and to assess the model’s potential and viability, performance evaluation indexes are applied. …”
