Communicating risk in primary care
In 2014, the National Institute for Health Care Excellence (NICE) changed its guidelines for offering statins to patients, reducing the threshold from 20% cardiovascular risk to 10%.1 This ignited a fervent debate about the...
Does the Madden-Julian Oscillation modulate stratospheric gravity waves?
The circulation of the stratosphere is strongly influenced by the fluxes of gravity waves propagating from tropospheric sources. In the tropics, these gravity waves are primarily generated by convection. The Madden-Julian...

The circadian fluctuation of melatonin in <em>Stenostomum virginianum<em>
Much is known about melatonin and its role in the circadian regulation of vertebrate organisms. However, melatonin has not been studied extensively in more primitive bilaterians. The aim of this study was to analyze the...

Prisoner Society in an Era of Psychoactive Substances, Organised Crime, New Drug Markets and Austerity
Framed by the limited and now dated ethnographic research on the prison drug economy, this article offers new theoretical and empirical insights into how drugs challenge the social order in prisons in England and Wales. It draws...

A Computational Comparison of Three Nature-Inspired, Population-Based Metaheuristic Algorithms for Modelling-to-Generate Alternatives
Julian Yeomans
Jan 01, 2023
In “real life” decision-making situations, inevitably, there are numerous unmodelled components, not incorporated into the underlying mathematical programming models, that hold substantial influence on the overall acceptability...

Reversible optical tuning of GeSbTe phase-change metasurface spectral filters for mid-wave infrared imaging.
Tunable narrowband spectral filtering across arbitrary optical wavebands is highly desirable in a plethora of applications, from chemical sensing and hyperspectral imaging to infrared astronomy. Yet, the ability to reconfigure...

Multipole calculation of gravitational forces
Julian Stirling
Jun 30, 2017
In this paper we introduce a method to directly calculate the Newtonian gravitational forces using multipole moments. Gravitational torques for precision tests of Newtonian gravitation are regularly calculated with multipole...
Promote, oppose, accommodate or compensate?
Julian Walter
May 10, 2017
The article outlines four ways that religions interact with a society’s dominant practices for dying, funerals, grief and mourning. Examples are given of religious promotion of practices that may eventually become normative for...
Active learning method for high dimensional image data using transfer learning to reduce dimensionality
Julian Wyszynski
May 01, 2023
Deep learning algorithms that perform very well on a wide variety of tasks usually require a large amount of labelled samples. The labelling process especially for complex problems such as medical applications require expert...

Confidence bands for smoothness in nonparametric regression
Julian Faraway
Jan 01, 0001
The choice of the smoothing parameter in nonparametric regression is critical to the form of the estimated curve and any inference that follows. Many methods are available that will generate a single choice for this parameter....
