Cognitive Phenotypes, Brain Morphometry and the Detection of Cognitive Decline in Preclinical AD by Mark W. Jacobson, Linda K. McEvoy, Anders Dale, Christine Fennema-Notestine

“…Combining neuropsychological and neuroimaging methodologies should improve our ability to differentiate healthy from pathological aging, although studies that utilize both methods often result in equivocal findings, possibly due to variability in cognitive test performance that may be capturing distinct phenotypes. One method of capturing this cognitive variability is to utilize contrasting neuropsychological tests to identify subgroups representative of distinct cognitive phenotypes, and determine whether differences in brain morphometry support these classifications. …”

MALVADA: A framework for generating datasets of malware execution traces by Razvan Raducu, Alain Villagrasa-Labrador, Ricardo J. Rodríguez, Pedro Álvarez

“…These approaches typically rely on analyzing the behavior of malicious applications, for example by examining execution traces that capture their runtime behavior. However, many existing execution trace datasets are simplified, often resulting in the omission of relevant contextual information, which is essential to capture the full scope of a malware sample’s behavior. …”

A MRAC Principle for a Single-Link Electrically Driven Robot with Parameter Uncertainties by Carlos Aguilar-Avelar, Javier Moreno-Valenzuela

“…With the aim of performing experimental comparisons, two control schemes are also revisited theoretically and experimentally: one is an algorithm previously reported in the literature and the other is an adaptive controller derived under the assumption that the electrical dynamics of the actuator are negligible. All the discussed controllers have been implemented in an experimental setup consisting in a rigid-link robot actuated with brushed DC motor. …”

Tourism and the demonstration effect: Empirical evidence by J. Carlos Monterrubio, M. Marivel Mendoza-Ontiveros

“…However, there is very limited empirical evidence specifically focused on how tourist behaviour is actually or potentially emulated by locals. This study aims to fill this gap by presenting the findings of a research project looking at how women in a tourism destination in Mexico have adopted tourists’ behavioural patterns either entirely or partially. …”
