Likelihood testing of seismicity‐based rate forecasts of induced earthquakes in Oklahoma and Kansas by M. P. Moschetti, S. M. Hoover, C. S. Mueller

“…Abstract Likelihood testing of induced earthquakes in Oklahoma and Kansas has identified the parameters that optimize the forecasting ability of smoothed seismicity models and quantified the recent temporal stability of the spatial seismicity patterns. Use of the most recent 1 year period of earthquake data and use of 10–20 km smoothing distances produced the greatest likelihood. …”

Short-Term Effects of Pacifier Texture on NNS in Neurotypical Infants by Austin L. Oder, David L. Stalling, Steven M. Barlow

“…Nonnutritive suck (NNS) compression pressure waveforms were digitized in real time using a variety of custom-molded textured pacifiers varying in spatial array density of touch domes. MANCOVA, adjusted for postmenstrual age at test and sex, revealed that infants exhibited an increase in NNS burst attempts at the expense of a degraded suck burst structure with the textured pacifiers, suggesting that the suck central pattern generator (sCPG) is significantly disrupted and reorganized by this novel orocutaneous experience. …”

Distinct neural representational changes following cross-format number tutoring in children with mathematical difficulties by Yunji Park, Yuan Zhang, Flora Schwartz, Teresa Iuculano, Hyesang Chang, Vinod Menon

“…This normalization was most pronounced in parietal and parahippocampal regions known to support quantity and spatial representation. We observed a distinctive pattern of neural plasticity across groups—children with MD showed increased cross-format NRS following tutoring, while TD children showed a decrease—suggesting a nonlinear, skill-dependent plasticity. …”

Enhancing Historical Aerial Photographs: A New Approach Based on Non-Reference Metric and Photo Interpretation Elements by Abdullah Harun Incekara, Dursun Zafer Seker

“…Images of bare land and forestry areas were evaluated as the primary category containing tone and color elements, images of residential areas as the secondary category containing shape and size elements, and images of farmland areas as the tertiary category containing pattern elements. Instead of training all images in all categories at once, which is the issue that any SR model with low number of parameters has difficulty handling, each category was trained separately. …”
