THE PHASE TRANSITION FOR PLANAR GAUSSIAN PERCOLATION MODELS WITHOUT FKG

Alejandro Rivera

We develop techniques to study the phase transition for planar Gaussian percolation models that are not (necessarily) positively correlated. These models lack the property of positive associations (also known as the 'FKG inequality'), and hence many classi ...

Debates on the dorsomedial prefrontal/dorsal anterior cingulate cortex: insights for future research

Nicolas Clairis

The dorsomedial prefrontal cortex/dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dmPFC/dACC) is a brain area subject to many theories and debates over its function(s). Even its precise anatomical borders are subject to much controversy. In the past decades, the dmPFC/d ...

Why computational complexity may set impenetrable barriers for epistemic reductionism

Michael Herzog, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Christian Sachse

According to physicalism, everything is physical or metaphysically connected to the physical. If physicalism were true, it seems that we should - in principle - be able to reduce the descriptions and explanations of special sciences to physical ones, for e ...

Nothing New Under the Sun: Novelty Constructs and Measures in Social Studies

Davide Bavato

The concept of novelty is central to questions of creativity, innovation, and discovery. Despite the prominence in scientific inquiry and everyday discourse, there is a chronic ambiguity over its meaning and a surprising variety of empirical measures, whic ...

First-person experience cannot rescue causal structure theories from the unfolding argument

Michael Herzog, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Aaron Schurger

We recently put forward an argument, the Unfolding Argument (UA), that integrated information theory (IIT) and other causal structure theories are either already falsified or unfalsifiable, which provoked significant criticism. It seems that we and the cri ...

Turning crowds into communities: The collectives of online citizen science

Jérôme Baudry

Over the past two decades, a number of digital platforms have been developed with the aim of engaging citizens in scientific research projects. The success of these platforms depends in no small part on their ability to attract and retain participants, tur ...

Contact process under renewals II

Thomas Mountford

We continue the study of renewal contact processes initiated in a companion paper, where we showed that if the tail of the interarrival distribution mu is heavier than t(-alpha) for some alpha < 1 (plus auxiliary regularity conditions) then the critical va ...

Six additional replies - one more chorus of the S3 ballad

Dominique Foray

This paper has been written as a response to 'Six additional questions about smart specialization: implications for regional innovation policy 4.0' by M. Benner. The paper starts with the argument that recent academic work has enabled considerable progress ...

Cost for a controlled linear KdV equation

Joachim Krieger, Shengquan Xiang

The controllability of the linearized KdV equation with right Neumann control is studied in the pioneering work of Rosier [25]. However, the proof is by contradiction arguments and the value of the observability constant remains unknown, though rich mathem ...

You Talking to Me? The TED digital infrastructure as a Recognition Device

Gianluigi Viscusi, Heidi Christina Gautschi

This article investigates the TED digital infrastructure for translating Science and Technology projects. Specifically, we seek to investigate the TED infrastructures generative mechanisms and their relation to valuation mechanisms and practices. The resea ...

A Framework for Collaborative Curation of Neuroscientific Literature

Sean Lewis Hill, Christian O'Reilly, Elisabetta Iavarone

Large models of complex neuronal circuits require specifying numerous parameters, with values that often need to be extracted from the literature, a tedious and error-prone process. To help establishing shareable curated corpora of annotations, we have dev ...

Resilienzkonstruktionen: Divergenz und Konvergenz von Theoriemodellen. Eine konzeptionell-empirische Analyse

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer

The concept of resilience has been applied within a wide spectrum of disciplines and has become increasingly relevant for interdisciplinary research. The interdisciplinary use of the concept can be linked to the fact that the conceptualization of resilienc ...

Argument discovery via crowdsourcing

Karl Aberer, Quoc Viet Hung Nguyen, Thành Tâm Nguyên, Chi Thang Duong

The amount of controversial issues being discussed on the Web has been growing dramatically. In articles, blogs, and wikis, people express their points of view in the form of arguments, i.e., claims that are supported by evidence. Discovery of arguments ha ...

The relativistic foundations of synchrotron radiation

Giorgio Margaritondo

Special relativity (SR) determines the properties of synchrotron radiation, but the corresponding mechanisms are frequently misunderstood. Time dilation is often invoked among the causes, whereas its role would violate the principles of SR. Here it is show ...

On variational arguments for vibrational modes near jamming

Matthieu Wyart, Eric DeGiuli

Amorphous solids tend to present an abundance of soft elastic modes, which diminish their transport properties, generate heterogeneities in their elastic response, and affect non-linear processes like thermal activation of plasticity. This is especially tr ...

Polynomiality of Hurwitz numbers, Bouchard-Marino conjecture, and a new proof of the ELSV formula

Nicolas Gerson Orantin

In this paper we give a new proof of the ELSV formula. First, we refine an argument of Okounkov and Pandharipande in order to prove (quasi-)polynomiality of Hurwitz numbers without using the ELSV formula (the only way to do that before used the ELSV formul ...

Benchmarking Image-Processing Algorithms for Biomicroscopy: Reference Datasets and Perspectives

Michaël Unser, Daniel Sage, Cédric René Jean Vonesch, Stamatios Lefkimmiatis, Hagay Kirshner

As the field of bioimage informatics matures, the issue of the validation of image reconstruction algorithms and the definition of proper performance criteria becomes more pressing. In this work, we discuss benchmarking aspects of fluorescence microscopy q ...
