Dynamics of global economic growth: a Bayesian exploration of basic and augmented Solow models by Nguyen Thi My Diem, Nguyen Ngoc Thach

“…The Solow growth model has long served as a cornerstone in economic theory, offering critical insights for formulating growth policies. Nevertheless, its principal limitation is the omitted variable bias arising from the inclusion of constant exogenous variables. …”

CSTrans: cross-subdomain transformer for unsupervised domain adaptation by Junchi Liu, Xiang Zhang, Zhigang Luo

“…Of them, the cross-attention as a key component acts for the cross-domain feature alignment, benefiting from its robustness. Intriguingly, we find that the robustness makes the model insensitive to the sub-grouping property within the same category of both source and target domains, known as the subdomain structure. …”

A Prediction Method Based on Monte Carlo Simulations for Finite Element Analysis of Soil Medium considering Spatial Variability in Soil Parameters by Kedong Tang, Jialiang Wang, Lielie Li

“…Although this method is significantly superior in principle to the homogeneous analysis of soil parameters, generalizing the method in engineering practice is difficult due to its computational inefficiency. In this paper, we propose a new method for the fast calculation of convergence results. …”

The Categorical Organization of Semantic and Lexical Knowledge in the Brain by Guido Gainotti

“…This paper aims to suggest that the brain regions typically damaged in a given type of category-specific semantic disorder might be critically involved in processing the kind of information which mainly contributes to organizing that semantic category and to distinguishing among its members. This general hypothesis is discussed taking into account: (a) comprehension and production of object names (nouns) and of action names (verbs) in agrammatic and in anomic aphasic patients; (b) verbal and non-verbal identification of body parts; (c) verbal and non-verbal identification of living beings and of man made artefacts.…”

Regional Mapping of Small‐Scale Equatorial Ionospheric Irregularities Using Swarm Echo Satellite Measurements by Ali Mohandesi, David J. Knudsen, Susan Skone, Richard B. Langley, Andrew W. Yau

“…To construct the maps, we employ several ionospheric GPS indices, including total electron content, high‐resolution ROTI, and S4, calculated from the Swarm Echo GPS Attitude, Positioning, and Profiling Experiment Occultation (GAP‐O) receiver with its antenna pointed upward. GAP‐O's high‐sample‐rate observations enable irregularities as small as 320 m to be resolved. …”

Caching strategy based on transmission delay for D2D cooperative edge caching system by Yan CAI, Fan WU, Hongbo ZHU

“…To meet the requirements of 5G system with low delay and high reliability, for a single-caching D2D cooperative edge caching system, an optimization of the caching strategy based on transmission delay was proposed.The dynamic distributions of requesting users and idle users were modeled as the independent homogeneous poisson point process (HPPP) utilizing the stochastic geometry theory.Comprehensively considering the content popularity, user location information, device transmission power and interference, the relationship between the average transmission delay of user and the cache probability distribution was derived.Taking the average transmission delay as the objective function, the optimization problem was established, and a low complexity iterative algorithm was proposed to obtain the cache strategy with sub-optimal average transmission delay.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed optimization cache strategy is superior to several common cache strategies in terms of transmission delay.…”
