Modeling Coastal Environmental Change and the Tsunami Hazard
(Frontiers, 2022-05-02)The hazard from earthquake-generated tsunami waves is not only determined by the earthquake's magnitude and mechanisms, and distance to the earthquake area, but also by the geomorphology of the nearshore and onshore areas, ... -
Generalizing predictions to unseen sequencing profiles via deep generative models
(Nature Portfolio, 2022-05-03)Predictive models trained on sequencing profiles often fail to achieve expected performance when externally validated on unseen profiles. While many factors such as batch effects, small data sets, and technical errors ... -
Ephaptic Coupling Is a Mechanism of Conduction Reserve During Reduced Gap Junction Coupling
(Frontiers, 2022-05-05)Many cardiac pathologies are associated with reduced gap junction (GJ) coupling, an important modulator of cardiac conduction velocity (CV). However, the relationship between phenotype and functional expression of the ... -
SERI: Generative Chatbot Framework for Cybergrooming Prevention
(2021-11-11)Cybergrooming refers to a crime to lure potential victims, particularly youth, by establishing personal trust relationships with them for sexual abuse or exploitation. Although cybergrooming is recognized as one of the ... -
Water-Use Data in the United States: Challenges and Future Directions
(Wiley, 2022-05-10)In the United States, greater attention has been given to developing water supplies and quantifying available waters than determining who uses water, how much they withdraw and consume, and how and where water use occurs. ... -
Asymmetric cryptosystem based on optical scanning cryptography and elliptic curve algorithm
(Nature Portfolio, 2022-05-11)We propose an asymmetric cryptosystem based on optical scanning cryptography (OSC) and elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) algorithm. In the encryption stage of OSC, an object is encrypted to cosine and sine holograms by two ... -
Self-Organizing Democratized Learning: Toward Large-Scale Distributed Learning Systems
(IEEE, 2022-05-10)Emerging cross-device artificial intelligence (AI) applications require a transition from conventional centralized learning systems toward large-scale distributed AI systems that can collaboratively perform complex learning ... -
Nudging Developers to Participate in SE Research
(2022-05-17)Software engineering (SE) research seeks to create, investigate, and improve tools and processes for developing and maintaining software applications. To conduct such research, it is valuable for researchers to find and ... -
Demystifying regular expression bugs: A comprehensive study on regular expression bug causes, fixes, and testing
(Springer, 2021-11-05)Regular expressions cause string-related bugs and open security vulnerabilities for DOS attacks. However, beyond ReDoS (Regular expression Denial of Service), little is known about the extent to which regular expression ... -
Development and application of a field knowledge graph and search engine for pavement engineering
(Nature Portfolio, 2022-05-12)Integrated, timely data about pavement structures, materials and performance information are crucial for the continuous improvement and optimization of pavement design by the engineering research community. However, at ... -
Association between Preseason/Regular Season Head Impact Exposure and Concussion Incidence in NCAA Football
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2022-06)Purpose: Contact sport athletes are exposed to a unique environment where they sustain repeated head impacts throughout the season and can sustain hundreds of head impacts over a few months. Accordingly, recent studies ... -
Dosage Effect of Wet-Process Tuff Silt Powder as an Alternative Material of Sand on the Performance of Reactive Powder Concrete
(MDPI, 2022-05-31)A large amount of stone powder is produced during the production of machine-made sand. This research aims to study the effect of wet-process tuff silt powder (WTSP) dosages (as an alternative sand material to utilize waste ... -
Applying a Coupled Hydrologic-Economic Modeling Framework: Evaluating Alternative Options for Reducing Impacts for Downstream Locations in Response to Upstream Development
(MDPI, 2022-05-28)Economic input-output and watershed models provide useful results, but these kinds of models do not use the same spatial units, which typically limits their integration. A modular hydrologic-economic modeling framework is ... -
Injury prevention for older adults: A dataset of safety concern narratives from online reviews of mobility-related products
(Elsevier, 2022-06)Older adults are among the fastest-growing demographic groups in the United States, increasing by over a third this past decade. Consequently, the older adult consumer prod-uct market has quickly become a multi-billion-dollar ... -
Post hurricane Harvey dataset: Portable free fall penetrometer and chirp sonar measurements of Texas rivers
(Elsevier, 2022-06)This data article includes datasets collected at three sections of the Guadalupe River, Brazos River, and Colorado River in Texas, USA, almost ten months post Hurricane Harvey. Instruments used include a Portable Free Fall ... -
An ineffective antidote for hawkmoths
(Springer, 2022-06)In recent publications we have drawn attention to the fact that if the dynamics of a model is structurally unstable, then the presence of structural model error places in-principle limits on the model's ability to generate ... -
