A Three-Component Model Based on Macropropagation Phenomena Approach for Complex Building Scattering by Mehdi Ait-Ighil, Fernando Perez-Fontan, Joel Lemorton, Frederic Lacoste, Christophe Bourga, Michel Bousquet

“…The actual trend in propagation channel modelling is to improve the multipath characterisation and representation by using semideterministic and hybrid physical-statistical models into channel simulators instead of narrow-band empirical approaches. In this context, this paper presents a new simplified model, called 3CM (3-Component Model) to reproduce building scattering in an efficient way which strongly improves computation performances. …”

Revisiting the Last Ice Area projections from a high-resolution Global Earth System Model by Madeleine Fol, Bruno Tremblay, Stephanie Pfirman, Robert Newton, Stephen Howell, Jean-François Lemieux

“…Here we revisit Last Ice Area projections using high-resolution numerical simulations from the Community Earth System Model, which resolves these narrow waterways. Under a high-end forcing scenario, the sea ice of the Last Ice Area thins and becomes more mobile, resulting in a large export southward. …”

Módní oděv jako paradigmatický model posthumanismu: teorie a praxe by Muchová, Linda

“…In the fourth, and final, section, we present an annotated sample of contemporary fashion theory, practice and creation in the narrow sense of the word. The productions of Iris van Herpen, Hussein Chalayan and Gareth Pugh vividly illustrate the posthumanist strategies in which human existence finds its realization in a close connection with the elements, technology and organic nature.…”

An Emerging New Paradigm in Opioid Withdrawal: A Critical Role for Glia-Neuron Signaling in the Periaqueductal Gray by Handong Ouyang, Shue Liu, Weian Zeng, Roy C. Levitt, Keith A. Candiotti, Shuanglin Hao

“…The chronic use of opiates (i.e., narcotics such as the natural derivatives of opium including morphine or codeine) or opioids (i.e., semisynthetic derivatives of opium and other molecules that activate opioid receptors) induces dependence, which is associated with various specific behavioral and somatic signs after their withdrawal or after the administration of an opioid antagonist. …”

The Evolution of China’s High-Level Talent Mobility Network: A Comparative Analysis Based on School and Work Stage by Fangfang Zhang, Hui Liu, Juntao Zhang, Yi Cheng

“…The results show that: (1) the spatial distribution of talents in the two stages has greater consistency, but there is a change characteristic of “large dispersion, small agglomeration.” (2) Compared with the school stage, the network in the work stage has much more connections; the centrality gap of cities has narrowed. (3) “Core-periphery” structure of two networks is relatively significant and similar. …”

Dual-Path Adaptive Channel Attention Network Based on Feature Constraints for Face Anti-Spoofing by Nana Li, Zhipeng Weng, Fangmei Liu, Zuhe Li, Wei Wang

“…In addition, we develop feature constraints method based on Inner Similarity Estimation (ISE), which effectively enhances intra-class consistency by reducing the distance between samples and their class center. This method narrows the intra-class sample distribution and improves class separability, preventing the model from learning excessive irrelevant information and enhancing the robustness and generalization of face anti-spoofing. …”
