Matriz de relación primaria en casos de niños y niñas con problemas de aprendizaje by Marta Isabel López, Mónica Schnitter

“…Encontramos una dinámica de relación primaria caracterizada por ansiedad y apoyo constante al niño o niña por parte de la madre, y por un padre por fuera de la relación madre - niño o niña. Esa dinámica se reproduce en las relaciones con otras personas y situaciones, favoreciendo la emergencia de un niño o niña en un lugar de discapacidad.…”

VERDI AND WAGNER IN EARLY VICTORIAN LONDON: THE VIEWPOINT OF “THE MUSICAL WORLD” by Massimo ZICARI

“…Notwithstanding this disparity, a first glance at the reviews that appeared in The Times, The Musical World, The Athenaeum, The Sunday Times and The Spectator, and that were then reproduced in the columns of The Musical World, shows the extent to which, between 1845 and 1855, both composers became object of severe critical scrutiny. …”

Pour une mésoéconomie de l’émergence d’une bioéconomie : représentations, patrimoines productifs collectifs et stratégies d’acteurs dans la régulation d’une chimie doublement verte... by Nicolas Béfort

“…The actors are weighed down by an "economy of promises" based on their own productive heritages that they are trying to reproduce and project into the future. This leads them to problematize the bioeconomy space in order to determine their resource allocations.…”

Geopolitical competition of great powers in the Arctic by E. S. Karsanova

“…To examine these factors, thе article uses a typical neorealist view of international relations, arguing that the driving force behind the rapid growth of the Arctic race is not the region itself, but the transforming structure of the international relations, which tends to effectively reproduce the causes of global competition. It the author’s view, peaceful rivalry in the Arctic may not last long, given the lack of effective institutions to address security issues in the region and the fact that changes in the global balance of power also affect local disputes and grievances.…”

Beware of diffusion models for synthesizing medical images—a comparison with GANs in terms of memorizing brain MRI and chest x-ray images by Muhammad Usman Akbar, Wuhao Wang, Anders Eklund

“…However, commonly used metrics such as Frechet inception distance and inception score are not suitable for determining whether diffusion models are simply reproducing the training images. Here we train StyleGAN and a diffusion model, using BRATS20, BRATS21 and a chest x-ray (CXR) pneumonia dataset, to synthesize brain MRI and CXR images, and measure the correlation between the synthetic images and all training images. …”

Regulatory Mechanism for Absence Seizures in Bidirectional Interactive Thalamocortical Model via Different Targeted Therapy Schemes by Hudong Zhang, Xiaolong Tan, Yufeng Pan, Yuan Chai

“…By adjusting the coupling strength of bidirectional pathways, the spike-wave discharges are reproduced. Regulatory mechanism for absence seizures is further applied to CTMBC via four different targeted therapy schemes, such as deep brain stimulation (DBS), charge-balanced biphasic pulse (CBBP), coordinated reset stimulation (CRS) 1 : 0, and (CRS) 3 : 2. …”

An enhanced rainfall-induced landslide catalogue in Italy by Maria Teresa Brunetti, Stefano Luigi Gariano, Massimo Melillo, Mauro Rossi, Silvia Peruccacci

“…The triggering conditions are calculated using hourly rainfall measurements from 4033 rain gauges and applying a rigorous and reproducible method. In addition, topographic and land cover information is also provided. e-ITALICA can be used to analyse rainfall conditions capable of triggering landslides, to calibrate and validate physically based landslide prediction models, and to define empirical rainfall thresholds from local to national scales in Italy, thus contributing to landslide risk reduction.…”

Influence of Plastic Deformation on the Precipitation Evolution in the Aluminum Alloys in Friction Stir Welding by Iuliia Morozova, Anton Naumov, Nikolay Doynov, Vesselin Michailov

“…Welding temperature cycles in the FSW weld zones calculated by means of a 3D finite element model were accurately reproduced using a Gleeble instrument. This approach was implemented under two scenarios such as the reproduction of the influence of temperature alone, and the combined effects of temperature and thermally induced plastic strain. …”
