Luxury is what you say: Analyzing electronic word‐of‐mouth marketing of luxury products using artificial intelligence and machine learning
Authors: Oc Yusuf , Plangger Kirk , Sands Sean , Campbell Colin L. , Pitt Leyland 
Published: May 2023

AbstractMany luxury brands are investing heavily in creating dynamic video content to actively engage consumers. While it is straightforward to calculate the views or “likes” from a particular campaign to benchmark performance, analyzing consumers' comments on luxury brands' dynamic video content presents a challenge due to the unstructured nature of natural language and large comment volumes. Previous studies utilizing machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) have not adequately examined the impact of brand types, brand luxuriousness, and consumer diversity. To address this research gap, this article tests a conceptual framework with over 29,000 comments from 88 YouTube campaigns for nine luxury brands using a combination of automatic text and image analyses. The results indicate significant differences in comments' psycholinguistic nature depending on the brand's luxuriousness (premium, prestige, and exquisite) and Copelandian classification (convenience, shopping, and specialty), as well as consumers' demographic characteristics (age, gender, and ethnicity). These findings suggest that brand managers can use machine learning and AI methods to better tailor dynamic content creation to further engage diverse target segments by refining the campaign message to encourage additional engagement.

Multiple control of thermoelectric dual‐function metamaterials
Authors: Zhuang Pengfei , Huang Jiping 
Published: May 2023

AbstractThermal metamaterials based on transformation theory offer a practical design for controlling heat flow by engineering spatial distributions of material parameters, implementing interesting functions such as cloaking, concentrating, and rotating. However, most existing designs are limited to serving a single target function within a given physical domain. Here, we analytically prove the form invariance of thermoelectric (TE) governing equations, ensuring precise controls of the thermal flux and electric current. Then, we propose a dual‐function metamaterial that can concentrate (or cloak) and rotate the TE field simultaneously. In addition, we introduce two practical control methods to realize corresponding functions: one is a temperature‐switching TE rotating concentrator cloak that can switch between cloaking and concentrating; the other is an electrically controlled TE rotating concentrator that can handle the temperature field precisely by adjusting external voltages. The theoretical predictions and finite‐element simulations agree well with each other. This work provides a unified framework for manipulating the direction and density of the TE field simultaneously and may contribute to the study of thermal management, such as thermal rectification and thermal diodes.

Published: May 2023

AbstractA category of symptoms that became characteristic early in the first wave of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic was chemosensory dysfunctions (alterations of smell and taste). Such symptoms substantially affect food and eating—cornerstones for both nutrition‐related health outcomes and for quality of life. Based on this, this scoping review aimed to map out existing scientific literature on food‐related experiences and related behavioral responses among people affected by chemosensory dysfunctions following COVID‐19. A librarian‐supported search of PsycInfo, PubMed, and Scopus for publications written in English (2020 to April 26, 2022) was conducted. Two authors searched for and screened publications and three others extracted and collated data. These are reported following the Preferred Reporting Items of Systematic reviews and Meta‐Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. Of 1169 hits, 9 publications were included in the review. The results are thematized as “Psychological and social aspects” and “Nutritional aspects,” each with the subsections “Experiences” and “Behavioral responses.” A great variety of food‐related problems, nutritional and mental health effects, and implications for social life are identified. People affected by chemosensory dysfunctions following COVID‐19 suffer, as evident both in stories from qualitative studies and in measurements of quality of life. The results impact all professions who are and may come to be involved in treating these patients, such as nurses, physicians, dietitians, and psychologists. With more knowledge about the dysfunctions' manifestation, duration, and impact on everyday life, multiprofessional teams need to collaborate in supporting patients medically, psychosocially, and nutritionally.

Published: May 2023

AbstractRecently, the eye drug delivery system has received increasing attention. The in situ ophthalmic gel is a semisolid ophthalmic preparation that can be changed in the eyes immediately after the solution is administered, showing unique advantages as a new drug delivery system. Although there are still some problems to be solved, the in situ ophthalmic gel is a promising drug delivery system to treat ocular diseases, due to its properties in improving the bioavailability, prolonging the retention time of the drug, producing a sustained‐release effect, and possessing little toxicity and irritation. In this review, the characteristics, classification, ocular barrier, and route of administration of in situ ophthalmic gel have been introduced in detail for expanding the horizon of nanoscale technologies in the treatment of ocular diseases in the foreseeable future.

AbstractPolyurethane (PU) synthesis based on poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) with isosorbide (ISO) and pentamethylene diisocyanate (PDI), named (ISOPUs) was carried out targeting PUs from renewable sources. The cross‐linked ISOPUs were produced and the details of the curing kinetics were determined via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). DSC scans displayed exotherms between 100 and 200°C, related to cross‐linking. ISO addition accelerated the curing and the maximum curing rate (Cmax), with 91°C and 0.2964 min−1 for the compound with 70% ISO. FTIR spectra confirmed the interaction between OH (ISO/PEG) and NCO (PDI) groups, with total NCO consumption (band at 2267 cm−1). Through the thermogravimetric analyses (TGA), the PU/70% ISO presented weight loss at 146°C due to the degradation of ISO. ISOPUs displayed a decreased activation energy (Ea) during curing over a range of 100 to 42 kJ/mol for 0 < α < 5%, as demonstrated using the Friedman model, and higher thermal stability as evidenced through TG analyses. Curing and degradation kinetics were modeled using Friedman (FR), Kissinger‐Akahira‐Sunose (KAS), and Ozawa‐Flynn‐Wall (OFW). Overall, ISO accelerated the curing rate and increased the degradation Ea, suggesting high thermal stability for PUs with intermediate ISO contents, that is, 30%–50%.

AbstractThis work explored the combined antibacterial and selective dye adsorption properties of graphene oxide (GO) incorporated into nanostructured polyethersulfone (PES) membranes. For this purpose, GO synthesis was performed by the Hummers method and characterized by Fourier transform infrared, X‐ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs, using a graphite source as a reference. The dye adsorption capacity of GO was evaluated, obtaining a retention of ca. 66% with methylene blue (MB) and ca. 72% with methyl orange, higher than activated charcoal. In addition, the antibacterial properties of GO were evaluated against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, with complete bacterial inhibition after 2 h of contact. GO was successfully incorporated into electrospun PES fibers to fabricate hybrid PES membranes, with a PES film (phase inversion) as substrate and an electrospun surface coating with PES/GO (at 1 wt%) fibers, corroborated by SEM micrographs. As a result, the hybrid PES membrane demonstrates an AA ca. 85% after 2 h of contact with both microorganisms and an improvement in colorant retention after two and four cycles of filtration, respectively. In addition, the adsorption isotherm and kinetics demonstrate the enhancement of the PES/GO membrane's performance in contact with MB solutions. Our results suggest that the GO incorporation into nanostructured hybrid membranes improves the fabrication of multifunctional NF membranes, with a potential application in wastewater treatment.Highlights

AbstractWith the advent of 5G era, the high millimeter‐wave frequency band, poor signal penetration and large loss make 5G communication more dependent on low dielectric constant materials. Therefore, the research and development of low dielectric polymer materials has become a hot spot in recent years. With its good chemical corrosion resistance, thermal stability, high dispersion and high mobility, titanium dioxide (TiO2) as a high function fine inorganic material is doped in polymer systems to improve the electrical properties of polymer composites. In recent years, a large number of studies have used spherical TiO2 nanoparticles doped on the polymer matrix, however, there is almost no research on doping nanolinear TiO2 nanoparticles on the polymer matrix. Here, TiO2 nanowires were prepared by hydrothermal method, and the prepared TiO2 nanowires were added to polyimide (PI). TiO2/PI monolayer and three‐layer composite films with good dielectric and mechanical properties were prepared by in‐situ polymerization. Fourier transform infrared spectoscopy, scanning electron microscopy and X‐ray diffraction were used to characterize the structure and test the properties of the composites. During the initiation process, the thermal initiation reaction of the composite membrane was completed. The composite film with good mechanical properties and excellent dielectric properties were obtained by adding titanium oxide nanowires, which can meet the requirements of its use in the field of microelectronic devices.

Authors: Galizia Francesco Gabriele , Bortolini Marco , Calabrese Francesca 
Published: May 2023

AbstractIndustry 4.0 (I4.0) was introduced in 2011, and its advanced enablers strongly affect industrial practices. In the current literature, while several papers offer general reviews on the topic, contributions exploring the evidences coming from the implementation of I4.0 in multi‐sector Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and large enterprises are few and expected. To address this gap, a comprehensive review of the main I4.0 enabling technologies is conducted, focusing on implementation experiences in companies belonging to different sectors. Forty (40) real case studies are analyzed and compared. The results show that 63% of the identified applications involve large enterprises in the transport sector, that is, automotive, aeronautics, and railway, adopting a structured set of enabling technologies. SMEs engaged in I4.0 projects primarily belong to the mechanical engineering sector, and 37% of such projects deals with the preliminary feasibility analysis of introducing a single enabling technology. Conclusions and trends guide researchers and practitioners in understanding the implementation level of I4.0 technologies.

Published: May 2023

SummaryFragility curves development in structures has always been a focus of research interest among structural and earthquake engineers for which the maximum story drift is usually considered as the engineering demand parameter (EDP) known as the conventional approach. This paper aims at calculating the fragility curves of a tall building with outrigger braced system by considering the plastic strain energy as the EDP and compare it with the conventional approach. In addition, the effect of optimizing the position of outriggers on the exceedance probability of the structure under near‐ and far‐fault seismic loadings is investigated in this paper. Fragility curves of this structure in four performance levels including immediate occupancy (IO), life safety (LS), collapse prevention (CP), and instability is extracted based on the conventional method. The fragility curves for the aforementioned performance levels are also extracted based on the plastic strain energy and compared with the conventional approach. The results have demonstrated that optimizing the location of the bracing system would lower the exceedance probability of the structure. Moreover, the exceedance probability of the investigated building with outrigger braced system under far‐fault records in various levels is more than that of near‐fault records. It is also concluded that the conventional approach would lead to more conservative results compared with the energy approach.
The benefits and dangers of using machine learning to support making legal predictions
Authors: Zeleznikow John 
Published: May 2023

AbstractRule‐based systems have been used in the legal domain since the 1970s. Save for rare exceptions, machine learning has only recently been used. But why this delay? We investigate the appropriate use of machine learning to support and make legal predictions. To do so, we need to examine the appropriate use of data in global legal domains—including in common law, civil law, and hybrid jurisdictions. The use of various forms of Artificial Intelligence, including rule‐based reasoning, case‐based reasoning and machine learning in law requires an understanding of jurisprudential theories. We will see that the use of machine learning is particularly appropriate for non‐professionals: in particular self‐represented litigants or those relying upon legal aid services. The primary use of machine learning to support decision‐making in legal domains has been in criminal detection, financial domains, and sentencing. The use in these areas has led to concerns that the inappropriate use of Artificial Intelligence leads to biased decision making. This requires us to examine concerns about governance and ethics. Ethical concerns can be minimized by providing enhanced explanation, choosing appropriate data to be used, appropriately cleaning that data, and having human reviews of any decisions.This article is categorized under:

Published: May 2023

AbstractWhile the recent population recovery of bald eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) in New York State, USA, is a conservation success, evidence from necropsies suggest that ingested lead (Pb) from ammunition fragments is causing morbidity and mortality to wild eagles. Wildlife managers and officials at the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation would benefit from analysis of their necropsy data to understand how documented morbidities or mortalities impact dynamics of the remaining wild eagle population. We integrated necropsy data on bald eagles in New York State collected between 1990 and 2018 by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation into a matrix population model. We compared annual survival of hatchling, non‐breeding, and breeding eagles under factual (Pb) and counter factual (Pb‐reduced or Pb‐free) scenarios. We found no evidence that Pb altered annual survival of hatchlings. Lead was associated with a reduction in the annual survival of non‐breeders by 0–0.056 (females) and 0.052–0.057 (males), and a reduction in the annual survival of breeders by 0.051–0.057 (females) and 0–0.032 (males). Lead was associated with a reduction in the long‐term growth rate (λ) by 0.009–0.036 (females) and 0.023–0.035 (males). Due to altered dynamics over the prior 3 decades, abundances of eagles in the most recent year of the study (2018) differed between Pb and non‐Pb systems; Pb was associated with a reduction in the number of total females by 15–610 birds, but an increase in the number of total males by 43–95 birds. The interactive software depicting these and other results is available for public use. Our study provides state‐specific evidence of the population‐scale impact of Pb ammunition on bald eagles and may be helpful to wildlife officials in the creation of educational materials or regulatory measures in habitats that support free‐ranging bald eagles.
Sodium and lithium exert differential effects on the central carbon metabolism of Debaryomyces hansenii through the glyoxylate shunt regulation
Authors: Ruiz‐Pérez Francisco S. , Ruiz‐Castilla Francisco J. , Leal Carlos , Martínez José L. , Ramos José 
Published: May 2023

AbstractDebaryomyces hansenii is a halotolerant/halophilic yeast usually found in salty environments. The yeast accumulated sodium at high concentrations, which improved growth in salty media. In contrast, lithium was toxic even at low concentrations and its presence prevented cell proliferation. To analyse the responses to both cations, metabolite levels, enzymatic activities and gene expression were determined, showing that NaCl and LiCl trigger different cellular responses. At high concentrations of NaCl (0.5 or 1.5 M) cells accumulated higher amounts of the intermediate metabolites glyoxylate and malate and, at the same time, the levels of intracellular oxoglutarate decreased. Additionally, 0.5 M NaCl increased the activity of the enzymes isocitrate lyase and malate synthase involved in the synthesis of glyoxylate and malate respectively and decreased the activity of isocitrate dehydrogenase. Moreover, transcription of the genes coding for isocitrate lyase and malate synthase was activated by NaCl. Also, cells accumulated phosphate upon NaCl exposure. None of these effects was provoked when LiCl (0.1 or 0.3 M) was used instead of NaCl. Lithium induced accumulation of higher amounts of oxoglutarate and decreased the concentrations of glyoxylate and malate to non‐detectable levels. Cells incubated with lithium also showed higher activity of the isocitrate dehydrogenase and neither increased isocitrate lyase and malate synthase activities nor the transcription of the corresponding genes. In summary, we show that sodium, but not lithium, up regulates the shunt of the glyoxylic acid in D. hansenii and we propose that this is an important metabolic adaptation to thrive in salty environments.
A perspective on ungulate management and welfare assessment across the traditional zoo to large landscape spectrum
Authors: Powell David M. , Beetem Dan , Breitigan RoxAnna , Eyres Adam , Speeg Brandon 
Published: May 2023

AbstractWild ungulates are managed in human care in a range of settings from traditional zoos to large ranches. These varied settings present different portfolios of risks for good or poor welfare, which leads some to question whether a particular setting is “good for welfare” and have frustrated others interested in comparing the welfare of ungulates across these settings. Differing housing and management scenarios present different challenges and opportunities in terms of welfare but this commentary posits that good welfare is possible in all of these settings. In this commentary, we also consider natural behaviors that may, at face value, compromise welfare and discuss how taking a long view on welfare addresses concerns about these behaviors, in part using arguments related to normal behavioral development that likely improves welfare at other life stages. We also highlight the role of motivation in seemingly welfare‐compromising behaviors. Finally, some indicators of welfare that we believe transcend management scenarios, and are thus able to be compared across scenarios, are suggested.
The E-Word (Emotions) in Military Ethics Education: Making Use of the Dual-Process Model of Moral Psychology
Authors: Karssing Edgar 
Published: May 2023

AbstractAccording to Verweij, the model of Haidt makes an important case for more attention to the ‘e-word’, emotions, in military ethics education. Haidt is an important pioneer within moral psychology of the dual-process model for understanding moral judgment. This chapter discusses how dual-process models indeed provides tools for embracing the ‘e-word’ in ethics education in practical ways, however, only when giving more room to the role of reasoning. This can be done by introducing a critically modified perspective of Musschenga. By addressing intuitions into the learning process in a structured way, by making clear that people could grow from beginners to experts by strengthening their intuitions through education, it is possible to entrench both emotions and reasoning in military ethics education.
