description: How do we know what others know? Prior work has examined how children use evidence about isolated agents, like their perceptual access and actions, to infer what they know. However, humans are rarely fully isolated; instead, we are often surrounded by others whom we interact with, influence, and are influenced by. In these contexts, we can use a speaker’s communication and the way it causes a listener to behave to infer what that speaker knows - even if we do not know the specific content of what was communicated. The present studies investigated how preschool-aged children use two pieces of evidence about listeners to reason about what speakers know: changes in the outcomes of a listener’s actions following communication (Study 1) and changes in a listener’s actions themselves following communication (Study 2). In both studies, children observed two scenarios where a listener failed to activate a toy before succeeding. In Study 1, children observed a speaker produce nonsense language towards a listener after they failed but before they succeeded to activate a toy, as well as another speaker who spoke to a listener prior to initial failure. In Study 2, children observed a speaker communicate with a listener before a distinct change in action, followed by success, as well as another speaker who communicated with a listener resulting in no distinct change in action, followed by success. When asked which speaker knows how to make the toy work, 5 year-olds chose the speaker who appeared to cause the listener to succeed (Study 1) or change their action (Study 2). These results suggest that preschool-aged children are sensitive to the way speakers influence others via communication and can use evidence of that influence to infer what speakers know. More broadly, these studies highlight children’s ability to reason about the knowledge of one agent (a speaker) based primarily on evidence about another agent (a listener).

description: In a world where the technology sector is growing rapidly and computer scientists seem ubiquitous, it is important to take into account the perceptions of these computer scientists who are driving this technological advance forward. Prior literature has described the stereotypical computer scientist as highly intelligent, socially unaware, obsessed with technology, and masculine. This project aims to analyze these stereotypes against some experimental data. With over 500 participants taking part in a survey on Mechanical Turk that asks the participant to describe the stereotype or anti-stereotype of a computer scientist, enough data was collected to answer the questions of how consistent with the literature were the stereotypes presented in this experimental data and could a stereotype score be attributed to each of the words used? To assess whether or not these descriptions were consistent with prior literature, the first step was to calculate the word similarity using word embeddings of each word with lexicons that represented the stereotypes of competence and social (in)ability. The second step was to find where geometrically each word fell on an axes of competence and anti-competence/social and anti-social, before calculating the distance from the middle point as the final stereotype score. Overall, the analysis finds that stereotypes and anti-stereotypes present in experimental data are consistent with literature, and this paper makes a major contribution in providing a method to assign any word a competence or social stereotype score along the lines of stereotyping in computer science.

description: Bodies of Data challenges the promise of big data in knowing and organizing people by explicating how data are made and theorizing mismatches between actors, data, and institutions. Situated at a large public university in the United States that hosts approximately 30,000 undergraduate students, this research ethnographically traces the development and deployment of an app for student success that draws from traditional (demographic information, enrollment history, grade distributions) and non-traditional (WiFi network usage, card swipes, learning management systems) student data to anticipate the likelihood of graduation in a four-year period. The app, which offers an interface for students based on nudging, is the product of collaborations between actors who specialize in educational technology. As these actors manage the app, they must also interpret data against the students who generate those data, many of whom do not neatly mirror their data counterparts. The central question animating this research asks how the designers of the app create order—whether through material bodies that are knowable to data collection or reorganized demographic groupings—as they render students into data.

To address this question and investigate practices of making data, I conducted 12 months of ethnographic fieldwork, using participant observation and interviewing with university administrators, data scientists, app developers, and undergraduate students. Through a theoretical approach informed by anthropology, science and technology studies, critical data studies, and feminist theory, I analyze how data and the institution make each other through the modeling of student bodies and reshaping of subjectivity. I leverage technical glitches—slippages between students and their data—and failure at large at the institution as analytics to both expose otherwise hidden processes of ordering and productively read failure as an opportunity for imagining what data could do. Predictive projects that derive from big data are increasingly common in higher education as institutions look to data to understand populations. Bodies of Data empirically provides evidence regarding how data are made through sociotechnical processes, in which data are not for understanding but for ordering. As universities look to big data to inform decision-making, the findings of this research contradict assumptions that data provide neutral and objective ways of knowing students.

description: In the first chapter, I study the exchange-traded fund (ETF) market from two perspectives. First, I study its contagion, and I show that the network of the ETF market — the linkages between ETFs based on portfolio weights — catalyzes the propagation of price dislocations, the gaps between prices and their fundamental values. Arbitrage trading induces price dislocations in connected ETFs, followed by responses in returns and subsequent reversals with a sizable effect of 4-6% per year. The findings suggest that arbitragers create externalities from trading. Finally, the ETF market works as a stabilizer for price dislocations, but induced returns can incur unexpected fluctuations. Another is information embedded in ETFs. By extracting information in ETFs, I uncover the risk neutral covariance of global asset returns and currency returns to understand risk premium and exchange rate risk in the global financial market better. The measure captures some economic policy uncertainty in real time. The second chapter studies the futures markets. The literature has documented that the inflow of institutional money into the commodity market led to so-called financialization of commodities and hence the higher correlation between equity and commodity. However, the correlation is highly timevarying, and it had decreased once before it has faced another surge. I find this time-varying correlations between equity and commodity as well as between commodity and bond are driven by the net trading positions for corresponding pair of asset classes. Exploiting this, I construct the measure that signals mispricing of large investors, and I find cross-sectional predictability for future returns with this measure. I also investigate the role of the limit to arbitrage in the currency market in a relation to return spillovers from the commodity market empirically and theoretically. In the third chapter (co-authored with Raphael Auer, Andreas Schrimpf, and Alexander Wagner), we study how the international trade network can affect financial markets. In contrast to the earlier literature, our measure shows the trade flows in global value chains affect equity market comovements strongly. One standard deviation increase in our trade intensity measure leads to roughly 0.05 to 0.1 increase in correlations. Our results hold after controlling for financial integration and other factors that could affect the international asset market comovements.

description: Abstract:

The gravitational constant (G) is one of the fundamental parameters governing cosmic evolution, yet the possibility of its time variation has been widely debated in gravitational physics, cosmology, and modified gravity theories. While Newtonian and Einsteinian gravity assume G is constant, several theoretical models—including scalar-tensor theories, extra-dimensional frameworks, and quantum gravity corrections—suggest that G may evolve over cosmological timescales.

This paper revisits the time-dependent gravitational constant hypothesis, exploring its implications for cosmic expansion, large-scale structure formation, and gravitational wave propagation. We examine how historic equations, including those from Newton’s law of universal gravitation and Einstein’s field equations, can be reconciled with modern observational constraints from pulsar timing, cosmic microwave background anisotropies, and precision gravitational wave data. Additionally, we investigate whether higher-dimensional gravity, scalar fields, or emergent spacetime models could naturally lead to a varying G, without violating existing experimental bounds.

Key Highlights:

Reviewing historical equations for gravity in light of possible time-dependence of G.

Theoretical models predicting a variable G, including scalar-tensor and extra-dimensional theories.

Observational constraints from pulsars, gravitational waves, and cosmological expansion.

Implications for dark energy, cosmic acceleration, and modified gravity theories.

Potential experimental tests in next-generation gravitational physics research.

By integrating insights from classical gravity, quantum field theory, and observational astrophysics, this work presents a refined framework for exploring the time evolution of G, offering potential experimental pathways for testing variations in fundamental constants.

description: The study of the residual lifetime received considerable attention in survival analysis and in other disciplines like reliability theory and actuarial science. The quantile residual lifetime function, the inverse of the residual lifetime distribution P(T1−t1≤y∣T1>t1), provides an interesting and well-studied measure to analyse residual lifetimes. In this paper we generalize the residual lifetime distribution and the quantile residual lifetime function by adding an extra conditioning of the form {T2≤t2} or {T2>t2}, where T2 is a second variable containing extra information on T1. We propose, for right-censored lifetimes, nonparametric estimators for this generalized conditional remaining lifetime distribution and the corresponding quantile function and we derive the asymptotic theory. In a simulation study, we show the good performance of the newly proposed quantile estimators and we discuss an application to real data on primary biliary cirrhosis.

description: Abstract:

The concept of time travel has long been a subject of speculation in both theoretical physics and philosophy, with frameworks ranging from classical general relativity solutions to quantum mechanical interpretations of time evolution. While Einstein’s field equations permit closed timelike curves (CTCs) under specific conditions, paradoxes such as the grandfather paradox and violations of causality present fundamental challenges. Meanwhile, in quantum mechanics, time is traditionally treated as an external parameter rather than a dynamical entity, leading to debates over whether quantum superposition, entanglement, and retrocausality allow for alternative interpretations of time travel.

This paper revisits classical and quantum frameworks for time travel, analyzing whether wormholes, CTCs, or quantum fluctuations in spacetime provide viable solutions. We explore how emergent spacetime models, quantum information theory, and gravitational wave constraints influence the feasibility of time travel. Additionally, we investigate whether recent insights from quantum gravity, semiclassical corrections to Einstein’s equations, and non-Hermitian quantum mechanics could modify our understanding of the arrow of time, causality, and time reversibility.

Key Highlights:

Analyzing time travel solutions in General Relativity, including wormholes and closed timelike curves.

Quantum mechanical approaches to time evolution, superposition, and retrocausality.

Exploring the relationship between time symmetry breaking and the arrow of time.

Examining observational constraints from gravitational waves and cosmological expansion.

Implications for quantum gravity, holography, and emergent spacetime theories.

By integrating general relativity, quantum mechanics, and high-energy physics, this work re-examines the nature of time and whether the fundamental laws of physics permit temporal manipulation or reversibility, offering new theoretical insights into one of the deepest mysteries in physics.

description: In Northern Italy are present several autochthonous cattle breeds characterized by a small territorial diffusion. The technical data show that these animals have a good reproductive performance (Communod et al 2010; Communod et al 2011), disease resistance and resilience. The objective of this study was to characterize some productive, reproductive and metabolic parameters (ketone bodies) in the Italian autochthonous cattle breed Modenese, comparing them with those of Holstein and their crossbred (F1=Modenese x Holstein; F2=Modenese x F1) breed in the same farm in order to understand if there is a different metabolic picture that can influence the reproductive performances. Milk samples have been collected at different times of lactation (20th, 40th, 90th day in milk) and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry to obtain the ketone bodies concentration. The reproductive (Open Days Period and number of Services Per Pregnancy) and productive (percentage and kg of protein between the 40th and 90th DIM) data have been recovered by the consultation of the farm registers and the APA (Provincial breeder association) data. On days open, number of services per pregnancy, % of proteins in milk, and kg of proteins in milk; a Spearman correlation analysis was applied. In all time points, the Modenese breed showed a significant (p<0,05) lower ketone bodies concentration. The F1, F2 and Modenese showed also better reproductive performances when compared to Holstein, with 80-105 days of days open in average. In conclusion, the better resilience against the negative energy balance and his adverse effects of Modenese cattle could be one of the phenomena underlying their better reproductive efficiency.

description: Current public transportation systems facesignificant challenges, including inefficiencies inscheduling, overcrowding, and safety concerns.This paper introduces a novel, IoT-based busscheduling automation system designed to addressthese issues. By integrating GPS tracking, real-timeTicketing data captured by devices handled by busconductors, and Machine Learning to analyze andpredict crowd strength, our system dynamicallyadjusts bus schedules to match passenger demand.As new passengers board and tickets are issued, theticketing device sends real-time logs to a CentralServer. The server aggregates this data from allbuses across the city, continuously updating recordsof passenger counts, boarding locations, and travelpatterns. This collected data is then processed andanalyzed using machine learning models, whichidentify trends, predict demand fluctuations, andgenerate insights for optimizing bus schedules. Thesystem considers historical trends, external factorssuch as holidays and peak hours, and predefinedoperational constraints to recommend adjustmentsin bus allocation.This approach not only optimizes resourceallocation and reducing unnecessary fuelconsumption but also enhances safety byminimizing overcrowding, which can help preventpetty crimes and harassment, ensuring a safe space.With the potential to improve passenger experienceand trust in public transportation, this system offersa scalable solution, especially for urban mobilitychallenges. Future applications could includeintegration with smart city initiatives to promoteefficient transportation, routemanagement and safety.Keywords: IoT-based bus scheduling automationsystem, GPS Tracking, Ticketing Device, ResourceOptimization

description: Abstract

The study assesses the factors influencing worker satisfaction at Hanoi-based life insurance companies. The study provides a structural model of the relationship between variables influencing employee satisfaction at enterprises. Two hundred fifteen survey samples were gathered from insurance companies in Hanoi city. Eight proposed hypotheses are tested. According to research findings, seven elements have a favorable influence on workers' job satisfaction at life insurance companies in Hanoi, including 1) Salary and benefits; 2) Employment assessment 3) Working environment 4) Career development; 5) Relationships with colleagues; 6) leadership style and 7) Style of work. Furthermore, an analysis of the difference in satisfaction based on personal characteristics using the t-test and ANOVA reveals that employee satisfaction varies depending on how long they have worked at a given location, such as a life insurance company in Hanoi.

description: The decrease of the use of antibiotic has promoted the scientific research towards the identification and study of natural substances able to improve animal performance and welfare (Hashemi et al., 2011; Daglia, 2012; Maghin et al., 2014).  The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of mixture of algae plus polyphenols (Algatan Mater®) on piglet and sow performance when used as dietary supplements to the sows. Eighty-four sows (42 per batch) were divided in two groups fed a control and Algatan Mater® supplemented diet. Feed intake, backfat thickness and blood samples at entry in farrowing room and at 21 days of lactation, and sows’ reproductive data until the next service were collected. Haematochemical parameters and antioxidant status of sows were analysed. Weight at birth, after cross-fostering and at 21 days of lactation were recorded to each litter. Backfat loss tended to be lower (P=0.07) in sows treated than control. The administration of algae plus polyphenols in sows improved (P<0.05) the piglets average daily gain and body weight at 21 days of lactation (P=0.014, Figure 1a.). Haematochemical parameters and antioxidant activity of blood was not affected by dietary treatment. The total number of piglets born at the next farrowing from treated group was higher (P=0.04) than controls (Figure 1b). The inclusion in lactating sows of Algatan Mater® improves lactating sows and piglets’ performance. Further research is needed to explore the mechanism of action of this natural mixture.

description: The production of high quality fish larvae is of great importance in aquaculture, as survival rates in this period remain quite low.  Since 1998 the international trade in all species of sturgeons has been regulated under CITES due to the depletion of the wild stocks.  Sturgeon aquaculture as well as  larvae production is therefore important because it may contribute to the repopulation of wild stocks of this species (Bronzi et al., 2011; Di Giancamillo et al., 2012). Embryonic development in bony fish is strongly influenced by environmental factors, mainly by temperature and dissolved oxygen, but little is known about their influence on Sturgeons.

The aim of this study is to monitor oxidative stress status and muscle development during embryonic and precocious larval phases (until complete yolk-sac absorption) in Siberian Sturgeon (Acipenser baeri), when subjected to different incubating and rearing temperatures.

Two experiments were performed in which the eggs were subjected to different incubation and rearing temperatures.  Data regarding water quality parameters were recorded, as well as mortalities, embryonic period length, and precocious larvae behavior.  Sampling was performed in the same developmental stage for each temperature and at four time points: blastula, embryo movements, hatching, schooling and yolk-sac full absorption.  Histological, histochemical and immunohistochemical analyses will be performed in order to assess the ontogeny and stress biomarkers (Lushchak, 2011), and gene expression will be analyzed for muscle development (Johnston, 2006).  The observed hatching rates  were between 85.5% and 98.8%.
 This study has been approved by the ethic committee of the Università degli Studi di Milano, with the following authorisation code: OPBA_20_2016.

 Now Galerida cristata cinnamomina Hartert, 1904. See Cramp, 1988: 145.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 557592, adult male, collected on Mt. Carmel, 32°45′N, 35°02′E (Times Atlas), Israel, on 29 (not 28) August 1897, by Bacher (no. 151a). From the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: Hartert (1904a: 235) noted that he had two specimens of the new taxon. A second adult male was collected by Bacher on Mt. Carmel, on 28 August 1897, the date cited in the original description. Both of the specimens were originally numbered 151. However, it is the above specimen to which Hartert added the ‘‘a’’—no. 151a being the number cited in the original description—and to which he tied the type label. Later, Hartert (1919: 166) called attention to this error in date citation in the original description. The second specimen, AMNH 557593, is a paratype.

description: Microbial competition is a mechanism that occurs when two or more microbial species compete for ecological niches to support their survival and growth[1]. Different factors can contribute to the outcome of microbial competition, such as molecules exchanged between the competing organisms for the regulation of cell densities and the initial spatial configuration of the microbe–microbe interaction. Specifically, production of compounds that kill or limit the growth of competing strains or species can promote niche monopolization[2]. The released compounds include secondary metabolite antibiotics, bacterial peptides or low-molecular-mass organic compounds. In that sense, it is very important to develop tools that could capture metabolic interactions between two or more bacterial populations. Imaging Mass Spectrometry (IMS) enables the visualization of both spatial and temporal production of a huge number of metabolites from a single bacterial species and can observe the effects of multiple microbial signals in an interspecies interaction without using tags or labels[3]. This technique has the potential to be used for identification of novel metabolites and peptides that were previously undetected by other analytical methods. In this work, a combination of IMS and LC-MS/MS was used to study the competition between Listeria monocytogenes (LM) and Lactococcus lactis (LAC) to investigate the metabolic profile of each bacteria in the interacting microbial colonies. IMS analysis revealed several interesting compounds during interaction of microbial colonies. At least six compounds are uniquely expressed during the interaction between LM and LAC.  These results could be useful to setup new molecular strategies in the control of bacterial species for a better food safety.

description: These guides highlight what we have learned from LIAISON's activities and data collection. The aim is to help all that use them enhance the way they co-innovate in farming, forestry and rural development. LIAISON (Better Rural Innovation: Linking Actors, Instruments and Policies through Networks) is a multi-actor project which has been funded within the EIP Agri, an initiative launched by the European Commission in 2012 with its goal of fostering competitive and sustainable agriculture and forestry that “achieves more and better from less”. The interactive innovation approach brings together a diverse range of public and private innovation actors (farmers, advisors, researchers, businesses, NGOs etc.) with complementary knowledge and experience to appraise, gather, co-create and disseminate practical solutions to the real needs of farmers and foresters. These needs are driven by, and derived from, the real opportunities and day-to-day challenges faced by farmers, foresters and rural businesses. The innovations generated through an interactive approach can deliver solutions that are well adapted to circumstances and which are easier to implement.

description: Honeybees (Apis mellifera) evolved social immunity mechanisms based on coordinated behavioral mechanisms for reducing the disease risk in the hive. Among these, Hygienic Behavior (HB) leads to the uncapping and removal of dead, diseased or parasitized brood (Cremer, 2007). The characterization of expression markers of HB could greatly assist in-field selection still incomplete. This work was characterized by a transversal approach: from in-field phenotypic characterization, to expression profiling of selected honeybee brain non-coding (microRNAs) and coding (RNAm) genes to assess differential expression of selected gene targets between selected honeybee families with high and low HB, respectively.

After a preliminary work performed in 2015, during spring 2016 honeybee nurses were sampled from 28 hives simultaneously with the evaluation of HB score through freeze-killed brood assay performed with the cooperation of professional honeybee breeders (E. Bonfanti, L. Sesso). The nurses from 16 families (8 with the highest and 8 with the lowest HB scores, respectively) underwent expression analysis of the following target genes potentially linked to HB and/or learning processes: ame-miR-219, ame-miR-276, let-7a (Behura, 2010) ame-miR-932 (Cristino, 2014), and Act5C, Mblk-1 (Takeuchi, 2001) and Obp4 (Chandrasekaran, 2011). The experimental workflow was as follows: 1) dissection and pooling of brains, 2) total RNA extraction, quantification and retrotranscription, 3) RT-quantitative Real Time PCR. The differential expression analysis of the candidate markers was performed after selection of the normalizing gene through geNorm and NormFinder algorithms.
