description: We introduce a model of skill acquisition that strikes a balance between top-down and bottom-up control using a knowledge representation in which pre- and post-conditions are attached to actions. This model captures improved performance, defined as shorter solution times and lower error rates during the task. The bottom-up control element also allows the model to show increased flexibility to solve similar problems and robustness against unexpected events. In two experiments using a complex aviation task, we contrasted instructions that explicitly stated preand postconditions with conventional instructions that did not. The augmented instructions led to better and more robust performance than standard instructions, especially on problems that required transfer. The results of Experiment 1 were fit by our model, which was then successfully used to predict the results of Experiment 2.

FAIR Evaluation

description: We consider evaluating the FAIR-ness of data derived from experiments undertaken at Photon and Neutron Research Infrastructures, which have in general well-defined experimental processes, and need to generate reusable results. We discuss developing a FAIR evaluation method based on those processes. We contend that our approach forms an exemplar for other domains of the FAIR evaluation of research processes.

description: The oxidation performance and quench behavior of cold spraying Cr coated Zircaloy-4 cladding tubes were investigated from 1100°C up to 1500°C in steam. The coated samples displayed significantly improved oxidation resistance, good thermal shock resistance and high post-quench ductility during oxidation at 1100°C and 1200°C for 1 hour accompanied by subsequent quench in water. However, substantial bending of the coated tubes was observed during oxidation at 1100°C, which led to loss of protective effect of the coatings on the tensile (convex) side. The underlying mechanisms for the occurrence of bending phenomenon at such temperature seems to be related with the residual stress state and high-temperature creep behavior of the coated cladding. Once the oxidation temperature exceeds the Cr-Zr eutectic temperature (~1330°C), oxygen drives the Cr diffusing inwardly (owing to the low solubility of Cr in ZrO2) and the formation of liquid phase contributes to rapid degradation of the coated cladding, connected with a much faster oxidation rate compared to the uncoated reference sample.

description: Rogue planets have been ejected from their planetary system. We investigate the possibility that a rogue planet could maintain a liquid ocean under layers of thermally-insulating water ice and frozen atmosphere as a result of geothermal heat flux. We find that a rogue planet of Earth-like composition and age could maintain a subglacial liquid ocean if it were ~3.5 times more massive than Earth. If a rogue planet had about ten times higher water mass fraction or a thick cryo-atmospheric layer, it would need to be only ~0.3 times the mass of Earth to maintain a liquid ocean. Such a planet could be detected from reflected solar radiation and its thermal emission could be characterized in the far-IR if it passed within O(1000) AU of Earth.

 Stem cortex has raphide crystals that occur as idioblasts or in small groups (two to four) of cells. Wood is parenchymatous. Axial matrix is formed by vasicentric paratracheal parenchyma with no visible fibers and small clusters of two to four vessels. Rays are multiseriate. Ray cells have abundant starch grains (Fig. 4D ). There is a certain degree of parenchyma cell proliferation in both systems. The secondary phloem rays are wide. Pith has raphide cells.
Caudex cortex has raphide cells that are found mainly as idioblasts near the stele. Wood is parenchymatous (Fig. 4E). Axial matrix is formed by confluent vasicentric parenchyma cells, scalariform vessels mostly solitary or in clusters of two to four cells, and no visible fibers. In the innermost wood, proliferation of vasicentric parenchyma becomes exceptionally larger (diameter of about 607 µm) compared with other paratracheal parenchyma (diameter of about 164 µm), (Fig. 4F). The enlargement of the paratracheal cells varies from vessel to vessel. Rays are multiseriate. Ray parenchyma cells have abundant amyloplasts especially in areas close to vessels, whereas its abundance diminishes toward the center of the rays and near the pith. Axial and ray parenchyma systems are extremely similar, giving an appearance of a continuous ground tissue of parenchymatous wood. There is collapsed phloem in each bundle. Pith has raphide cells as idioblasts.

description: For a smooth projective variety whose anti-canonical bundle is nef, we prove confluence of the small $K$-theoretic $J$-function, i.e., after rescaling appropriately the Novikov variables, the small $K$-theoretic $J$-function has a limit when $q\to 1$, which coincides with the small cohomological $J$-function. Furthermore, in the case of a Fano toric manifold $X$ of Picard rank 2, we prove the $K$-theoretic version of an identity due to Iritani that compares the $I$-function of the toric manifold and the oscillatory integral of the toric mirror. In particular, our confluence result yields a new proof of Iritani's identity in the case of a toric manifold of Picard rank 2.

description: Within the framework of perturbative QCD approach based on $k_T$ factorization, we studied 40 $B_c \to DS$ decay modes in the leading order and leading power, where "S" stands for the light scalar meson. Under two different scenarios (S1 and S2) for the description of scalar mesons, we explored the branching fractions and related CP asymmetries. As a heavy meson consisting of two heavy quarks with different flavor, the light-cone distribution amplitude of $B_c$ meson has not been well defined, so the $δ$-function is adopted. The contributions of emission diagrams are suppressed by the vector decay constants and CKM elements, the contributions of annihilation are dominant. After the calculation, we found some branching fractions are in the range of $[10^{-5}, 10^{-4}]$, which could be measured in the current LHCb experiment, and other decays with smaller branching fractions will be tested at the high-energy colliders in future. Furthermore, some decay modes have large CP asymmetries, but they are unmeasurable currently due to the small branching fractions.

The Acquisition of Case-Marking by Adult Learners of Russian and German.

description: This study investigated the acquisition of overt morphological case by adult native speakers of English who were learning Russian or German as a second language (L2). The Russian casemarking system is more complex than the German system; but it almost always provides the listener with case inflections that are reliable cues to sentence interpretation. Two approaches to learning of inflectional morphology were contrasted: the rule-based approach which predicts that learning is determined by paradigm complexity and the associative approach which predicts that learning is determined by the cue validity of individual inflections. A computerized picture-choice task probed the comprehension of L2 learners by varying the cues case-marking, noun configuration, and noun animacy. The results demonstrated that learners of Russian use casemarking much earlier than learners of German and that learners of German rely more on animacy to supplement the weaker case-marking cue. In order to further explore the underlying mechanisms of learning, a connectionist model was developed which correctly simulated the obtained results. Together, these findings support the view that adult L2 learning is associative and driven by the validity of cues in the input.

description: Diabetes is a major public health problem and its prevalence is rising all over the world, with India being called Diabetes capital of the world. The prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus, i.e. diabetes diagnosed during pregnancy, increases in parallel with the diabetes prevalence. The longest follow-up data suggested that up to 50% of women with a history of GDM may develop DM over a 20–30-year period or that 30% will develop DM within 10 years of childbirth. We therefore, conducted a study to assess presence of risk factors for developing diabetes mellitus among postpartum women admitted in a tertiary care centre in Maharashtra, India.
Vortex lattices in binary Bose-Einstein condensates: Collective modes, quantum fluctuations, and intercomponent entanglement

description: We study binary Bose-Einstein condensates subject to synthetic magnetic fields in mutually parallel or antiparallel directions. Within the mean-field theory, the two types of fields have been shown to give the same vortex-lattice phase diagram. We develop an improved effective field theory to study properties of collective modes and ground-state intercomponent entanglement. Here, we point out the importance of introducing renormalized coupling constants for coarse-grained densities. We show that the low-energy excitation spectra for the two kindsof fields are related to each other by suitable rescaling using the renormalized constants. By calculating the entanglement entropy, we find that for an intercomponent repulsion (attraction), the two components are more strongly entangled in the case of parallel (antiparallel) fields, in qualitative agreement with recent studies for a quantum (spin) Hall regime. We also find that the entanglement spectrum exhibits an anomalous square-root dispersion relation, which leads to a subleading logarithmic term in the entanglement entropy. All of these are confirmed by numerical calculations based on the Bogoliubov theory with the lowest-Landau-level approximation. Finally, we investigate the effects of quantum fluctuations on the phase diagrams by calculating the correction to the ground-state energy due to zero-point fluctuations in the Bogoliubov theory. We find that the boundaries between rhombic-, square-, and rectangular-lattice phases shift appreciably with a decrease in the filling factor.

description: We review the relation between Casimir effect and geometry, emphasizing deviations from the commonly used Proximity Force Approximation (PFA). We use to this aim the scattering formalism which is nowadays the best tool available for accurate and reliable theory-experiment comparisons. We first recall the main lines of this formalism when the mirrors can be considered to obey specular reflection. We then discuss the more general case where non planar mirrors give rise to non-specular reflection with wavevectors and field polarisations mixed. The general formalism has already been fruitfully used for evaluating the effect of roughness on the Casimir force as well as the lateral Casimir force or Casimir torque appearing between corrugated surfaces. In this short review, we focus our attention on the case of the lateral force which should make possible in the future an experimental demonstration of the nontrivial (i.e. beyond PFA) interplay of geometry and Casimir effect.

description: An ab initio analysis of strong-field three-electron ionization in a restricted-dimensionality model reveals the dynamics of the ionization process and the dominant channels for double (DI) and triple ionization (TI). Simulations using wave functions that respect the Pauli principle show that the most likely channel is a sequence of single ionization (SI) and DI, while direct TI has a much lower probability. The dominant DI process has the highest probability for a singlet of up- and down-spin electrons. The results demonstrate the significance of the Pauli principle for the selection of dominant pathways in ionization and possibly other many-electron processes in strong fields.

description: In this paper, novel methods are presented to measure the optical properties of muon detectors (MDs) in the Large High-Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO), which can also be used by other experiments. Each MD consists of a cylindrical water Cherenkov detector, with a Tyvek liner containing pure water, and a photomultiplier tube (PMT) mounted on the top. The time distribution of the photons collected by the PMT in the water Cherenkov detector have an approximately exponential distribution, and their decay factor is determined by the photon absorption length in the water, the reflectivity of the inner Tyvek surface, the mean reflecting step length of photons reflected by the inner surface, and the ratio of reflectional Tyvek area to the total inner surface area. By considering the principles of photon propagation in the water Cherenkov detector, we have developed novel methods to measure the water absorption length, the Tyvek reflectivity, and the mean step length of photons. The step length of photons can be determined by measuring the time distribution of the reflected photons hitting the PMT after multiple photons with single wavelength are generated in the tank, with slightly different ratios of the inner Tyvek to the total inner area. The water absorption length and Tyvek reflectivity can be measured simultaneously by the PMT by changing the height of the water, while the step length and Tyvek reflectivity in air can also be measured simultaneously. The proposed novel methods are supported by deduction of formulae and verified by GEANT4 simulations and the prototype experiment.

description: Relying on a biographical approach that reconstructs the life and work of Johannes [Hovhanness/Յովհաննէս] Jakob [Hagop/Յակոբ] Manissadjian [Manisacıyan/Մանիսաճեան] (1862–1942), a highly successful scientist at the Anatolia College (Merzifon/Marsovan/Մարզվան), who established a meteorological station and a natural history museum with an extensive collection of specimens, the paper traces the routes of disappearance, dispersal and ruination of indigenous lives, people, and knowledge within the context of the Armenian genocide. Drawing on documents from Ottoman, German, and American archives, I stress the potential of biographical methods to study the processes and structures of mass violence targeting the Ottoman Armenians, as well as to foreground the agency and subjectivity of genocide survivors. The article also focuses on post-genocide scientific (dis)engagements of Manissadjian in light of Theodor W. Adorno’s ‘after Auschwitz’ discussions and from the perspective of indigenous knowledge production. In particular, his two ‘archival acts’ in the post-genocide context, the ‘Catalogue’ of the collection of the Anatolia College Museum that he prepared as ‘the former Curator’ and his small pamphlet entitled Proverbs of Turkey, which provided an ethnographic portrait of Anatolia, were his humble acts of saving a treasure trove of knowledge that was in danger of becoming debris.
Task-Specific Codes for Face Recognition: How they Shape the Neural Representation of Features for Detection and Individuation

description: Background: The variety of ways in which faces are categorized makes face recognition challenging for both synthetic and biological vision systems. Here we focus on two face processing tasks, detection and individuation, and explore whether differences in task demands lead to differences both in the features most effective for automatic recognition and in the featural codes recruited by neural processing. Methodology/Principal Findings: Our study appeals to a computational framework characterizing the features representing object categories as sets of overlapping image fragments. Within this framework, we assess the extent to which task-relevant information differs across image fragments. Based on objective differences we find among task-specific representations, we test the sensitivity of the human visual system to these different face descriptions independently of one another. Both behavior and functional magnetic resonance imaging reveal effects elicited by objective task-specific levels of information. Behaviorally, recognition performance with image fragments improves with increasing task-specific information carried by different face fragments. Neurally, this sensitivity to the two tasks manifests as differential localization of neural responses across the ventral visual pathway. Fragments diagnostic for detection evoke larger neural responses than non-diagnostic ones in the right posterior fusiform gyrus and bilaterally in the inferior occipital gyrus. In contrast, fragments diagnostic for individuation evoke larger responses than non-diagnostic ones in the anterior inferior temporal gyrus. Finally, for individuation only, pattern analysis reveals sensitivity to task-specific information within the right "fusiform face area". Conclusions/Significance: Our results demonstrate: 1) information diagnostic for face detection and individuation is roughly separable; 2) the human visual system is independently sensitive to both types of information; 3) neural responses differ according to the type of task-relevant information considered. More generally, these findings provide evidence for the computational utility and the neural validity of fragment-based visual representation and recognition.

description: The switch cost (the disadvantage of performing a new task vs. a repeated task) has been attributed to lack of preparation for the switched task or priming of the repeated task. These sources were examined by manipulating foreknowledge of task transition (repeat or switch), response-to-stimulus interval (RSI), and practice level. Regardless of foreknowledge, the cost decreased with RSI and practice. The reduction was greater with foreknowledge than with no foreknowledge, and the amount of switch cost did not depend on foreknowledge. These results suggest that the switch cost with foreknowledge may consist of both inadequate preparation and repetition benefit but the switch cost with no foreknowledge may reflect repetition benefit only. An ACT-R (adaptive control of thought-rational) model was proposed, accommodating both preparation and priming effect with 2 independent processes: conflict resolution among productions and decay of chunk activation.

description: By assuming a type of balance for length $\ell=87$ and non-trivial subgroups of multiplier groups of Legendre pairs (LPs) for length $\ell=85$, we find LPs of these lengths. We then study the power spectral density (PSD) values of m-compressions of LPs of length 5m. We also formulate a conjecture for Legendre pairs of lengths $\ell \equiv 0$ (mod 5) and demonstrate how it can be used to decrease the search space and storage requirements for finding such LPs. The newly found LPs decrease the number of integers in the range $\leq 200$ for which the existence question of LPs remains unsolved from 12 to 10.

We determine empirically the relation between magnification and redshift, for various cosmological models. We then use this relation to estimate the effect of lensing on the determination of the cosmological parameters from observations of high-z supernovae. We found that, for supernovae at redshifts z<1.8 the effect of lensing is negligible compared to the intrinsic uncertainty in the measurements. Using mock data in the range 1.82. Therefore if supernovae up to these redshifts were ever discovered, it is still the ones in the range 0.3

This implies that a closed orientable (4k+1)-manifold with non-vanishing Kervaire semi-characteristic possesses no CR-regular embedding into complex 4k-space. We also pay special attention to the cases of CR-regular embeddings of spheres and of simply-connected 5-manifolds.

description: This report offers frameworks within which research investigations of smoking relapse might be conceptualized. First. variables that have been Or should be investigated in relation to relapse are discussed. Next, three broad models of the relapse process are presented. These models present hypothesized relationships between relapse and its predictors over time. Then, several more specific models of the mechanisms of relapse are discussed. These models consider the range of variables that are thought to be important in the causation of relapse. Finally, broad methodological issues and directions for future research on relapse are addressed.

description: This work addresses two major issues of end-to-end learned image compression (LIC) based on deep neural networks: variable-rate learning where separate networks are required to generate compressed images with varying qualities, and the train-test mismatch between differentiable approximate quantization and true hard quantization. We introduce an online meta-learning (OML) setting for LIC, which combines ideas from meta learning and online learning in the conditional variational auto-encoder (CVAE) framework. By treating the conditional variables as meta parameters and treating the generated conditional features as meta priors, the desired reconstruction can be controlled by the meta parameters to accommodate compression with variable qualities. The online learning framework is used to update the meta parameters so that the conditional reconstruction is adaptively tuned for the current image. Through the OML mechanism, the meta parameters can be effectively updated through SGD. The conditional reconstruction is directly based on the quantized latent representation in the decoder network, and therefore helps to bridge the gap between the training estimation and true quantized latent distribution. Experiments demonstrate that our OML approach can be flexibly applied to different state-of-the-art LIC methods to achieve additional performance improvements with little computation and transmission overhead.

description: We show that in many examples the non-displaceability of Lagrangian submanifolds by Hamiltonian isotopy can be proved via Lagrangian Floer cohomology with non-unitary line bundle. The examples include all monotone Lagrangian torus fibers in toric Fano manifold (which was also proven by Entov and Polterovich via the theory of symplectic quasi-states), some non-monotone Lagrangian torus fibers. We also extend the results by Oh and the author about the computations of Floer cohomology of Lagrangian torus fibers to the case of all toric Fano manifolds, removing the convexity assumption in the previous work.

description: Starting from the density-matrix equation of motion, we derive a semiclassical kinetic equation for a general two-band electronic Hamiltonian, systematically including quantum-mechanical corrections up to second order in space-time gradients. We find, in addition to band-projected corrections to the single-particle equation of motion due to phase-space Berry curvature, interband terms that we attribute to the nonorthorgonality of the projected Hilbert spaces. As examples, we apply our kinetic equation to electronic systems in the presence of spatially inhomogeneous and dynamical spin textures stemming from electromagnetic gauge potentials. Specifically, we consider the electromagnetic response of massive two-dimensional Dirac fermions and three-dimensional Weyl fermions, and reproduce the anomalous currents known as the parity and the Adler-Bell-Jackiw anomaly in particle physics.

description: Tournament organisers supposedly design rules such that a team cannot be strictly better off by exerting a lower effort. However, the European qualification tournaments for recent FIFA soccer World Cups are known to violate this requirement, which inspires our study on the incentive compatibility of similar group-based qualification systems. Theorems listing the sufficient and necessary conditions of strategy-proofness are provided and applied to classify several soccer qualification tournaments for FIFA World Cups and UEFA European Championships. Two reasonable mechanisms are proposed to solve the problem of incentive incompatibility: the first is based on abolishing the anonymity of the matches discarded in the comparison of teams from different groups, while the second involves a rethinking of the seeding procedure. Our results have useful implications for the governing bodies of major sports.

Sequence-specific folding mechanisms of peptides
Creators: name: Reeves, Julieanna
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2024

description: Using molecular dynamics simulations, folding events and backbone hydration were monitored for eleven peptides. The peptides differed by systematic mutations of the center three residues. The mutations were varying combinations of tryptophan, isoleucine, alanine, and or glycine within an otherwise consistent sequence. To evaluate structure, angles of the middle five residues were extracted from the simulations of all the sequences and were grouped into similar collections using hierarchical cluster analysis. Making clusters of common structures also facilitated a way to count the number of occurrences each time a specific sequence conformed to the common structures. This technique formed a sequence to structure probability relationship. Tryptophan had a strong alpha helical folding propensity especially when it was joined by another adjacent tryptophan. Isoleucine also had a strong alpha helical folding propensity when it was flanked by two alanines, but when isoleucine was paired with another adjacent isoleucine, it did not have an alpha helical folding propensity. The exact reason for this difference in behavior is uncertain. In previous work, Bignucolo et al.1, theorized backbone dehydration caused by bulky side chains is a means for creating opportunities for hydrophobic association leading to folding events. Backbone dehydration analysis of the sequences in their elongated forms revealed isoleucine is better at dehydrating the backbone polar groups of its own residue compared to tryptophan, but tryptophan is better at dehydrating its C-terminus neighbors’ amide than isoleucine.

plantas aromáticas

description: Las plantas medicinales y aromáticas (MAPs) son un recurso altamente demandado en la actualidad, ya que a los usos típicos de las plantas medicinales y aromáticas (en farmacia, fitoterapia, condimentaria, perfumería, bebidas alcohólicas) se sumaron con fuerza entre finales de 1990 y principios de 2000 otros nuevos que cada vez tienen un mayor peso en el cómputo global del movimiento de este tipo de mercancías. Es el caso de los dermocosméticos, en cuya composición aparecen con mayor frecuencia extractos de plantas, o el desarrollo y comercialización de bebidas y alimentos funcionales que contienen componentes bioactivos procedentes de plantas medicinales. Además en los últimos años la demanda de productos naturales para el cuidado de animales domésticos se ha intensificado, sólo en Estados Unidos el volumen de mercado de este tipo de productos fue de un Billón de dólares en el año 2002. Las cifras que aparecen reflejadas en la bibliografía tanto sobre el volumen total de plantas que se mueven en el mercado de las PAM como del dinero que a nivel mundial genera este tipo de productos son muy elevados.
Analysis of $D_s D K^*$ and $D_s D^{*} K^*$ vertices and branching ratio of $B^+\to {K^*}^0 π^+$

description: In this paper, the strong form factors and coupling constants of $D_sDK^*$ and $D_sD^*K^*$ vertices are investigated within the three-point QCD sum rules method with and without the $SU_{f}(3)$ symmetry. In this calculation, the contributions of the quark-quark, quark-gluon, and gluon-gluon condensate corrections are considered. As an example of specific application of these coupling constants, the branching ratio of the hadronic decay $B^+\to {K^*}^0 π^+$ is analyzed based on the one-particle-exchange which is one of the phenomenological models. In this model, $B$ decays into a $D_s D^*$ intermediate state, and then these two particles exchange a $D (D^*)$ producing the final $K^*$ and $π$ mesons. In order to compute the effect of these interactions, the $D_s D K^*$ and $D_s D^* K^*$ form factors are needed.

Data Distillery Knowledge Graph

description: Objective: To develop a machine learning (ML) pipeline for identifying potential gene-disease associations, even when explicit connections are absent in knowledge graphs.

Background: Biomedical knowledge graphs (KGs), such as the Data Distillery Knowledge Graph (DDKG), capture known relationships among entities (e.g., genes, diseases, proteins), providing valuable insights for research. However, these relationships are typically derived from prior studies, leaving potential unknown associations unexplored. Traditional methods, like linkage analysis and genome-wide association studies (GWAS), can be time-consuming and resource-intensive. Recently, network-based methods and KGs, enhanced by advances in ML frameworks, have emerged as powerful tools for inferring these unexplored associations.

Methods: We propose KG2ML (Knowledge Graph to Machine Learning), a pipeline utilizing the PULSNAR algorithm (Positive Unlabeled Learning Selected Not At Random) to infer disease-associated genes not explicitly recorded in the DDKG. CondensedKG, a subset of DDKG with 8 node types and 1,042 relationship types, was created to improve data interpretability. KG2ML transforms CondensedKG into a feature matrix using ProteinGraphML’s path-based method, and then PULSNAR generates probabilistic scores for gene-disease associations. KG2ML was applied to 12 diseases, including Bipolar Disorder, Coronary Artery Disease, and Parkinson's Disease. The top 15 high-probability genes per disease were validated through expert review and reference databases (e.g., TINX). XGBoost models were evaluated with 5-fold cross-validation to measure the impact of incorporating PULSNAR-imputed genes as positives.

Results: For some of those 12 diseases, 14 of the 15 top-ranked genes lacked prior explicit associations but were supported by literature and TINX evidence. Incorporating PULSNAR-imputed genes as positives enhanced XGBoost classification, highlighting PU learning's potential in identifying hidden gene-disease relationships.

Conclusions: KG2ML demonstrates that PU learning can effectively discover disease-gene associations missing from current KGs. By combining KG data with ML-based inference, it offers a scalable, interpretable strategy to advance biomedical research and address KG limitations.
TalkBank: Building an Open Unified Multimodal Database of Communicative Interaction

Subjects: subject: 170199 Psychology not elsewhere classified
subject: FOS: Psychology

description: The goal of the TalkBank project (http://talkbank.org) is to support data-sharing and direct, community-wide access to naturalistic recordings and transcripts of human and animal communication. Toward this end, we have constructed a web accessible database of transcripts linked to audio and video media within fields such as conversation analysis, classroom discourse, animal communication, gesture, meetings, second language acquisition, first language acquisition, bilingualism, tutoring, and legal oral argumentation. We discuss how we have taken discrepant databases from dozens of individual projects and merged them together into a well-structured uniform database in which transcripts can be opened online through browsers, allowing direct multimedia playback. To achieve translation across corpora, we have defined a general XML schema. The validity of this schema is checked by bidirectional conversion from alternative input formats to XML and back. The resultant transcripts are then linked to hinted media and XSLT is used to format web readable browsable multimedia transcripts playable through SMIL. A parallel pathway is used to support collaborative commentary and publication of PDF linked to media through special issues of journals in the relevant fields.
