Quantifying the propagation of distress and mental disorders in social networks.
Heterogeneity of human beings leads to think and react differently to social phenomena. Awareness and homophily drive people to weigh interactions in social multiplex networks, influencing a potential contagion effect. To...
E-Government and Digital Inequality
Stefano De Marco
Jan 01, 2021
The second level digital divide is generated by a combination of two factors. Firstly, the adoption of advantageous internet uses is strongly related to internet users’ material and educational resources. The higher the level of...

A Novel Methodology for designing Policies in Mobile Crowdsensing Systems
Mobile crowdsensing is a people-centric sensing system based on users'
contributions and incentive mechanisms aim at stimulating them. In our work, we
have rethought the design of incentive mechanisms through a...

Gut microbiota and human relationships are strictly connected to each other. What we eat reflects our body-mind connection and synchronizes with people around us. However, how this impacts on gut microbiota and, conversely, how...
Monitoring Practitioner's Skills in Pure-Tone Audiometry
So far, there exists no standard, to evaluate a practitioner's skills in pure-tone audiometry. To narrow the gap, this article presents an artificial patient (AP) emulating various types of hearing impairment. In contrast to...

While colocalization within a bacterial operon enables coexpression of the constituent genes, the mechanistic logic of clustering of nonhomologous monocistronic genes in eukaryotes is not immediately obvious. Biosynthetic...

Simplexity to Improve Human-Machine Interaction in 3D Virtual Reality
The purpose of this paper is to present the use of the notion of simplexity to facilitate the design of virtual and immersive environments. Through ahistorical and argumentative excursus, the authors specify the motivations that...

Patents and Knowledge Diffusion
We study how the timing of information disclosure affects the diffusion of codified technical information. On November 29, 2000, the American Inventors Protection Act (AIPA) reduced the default publication time of patents at...

RETRACTED: Can We Fight EU-Racism in Football?
The current study aims to examine the phenomenon of racism in football. The researchers collected data from people of all ages in the countries of Italy, Romania, Greece, Hungary, Serbia, Bulgaria, and a number of experts from...

The role of colour flows in matrix element computations and Monte Carlo simulations.
We discuss how colour flows can be used to simplify the computation of matrix elements, and in the context of parton shower Monte Carlos with accuracy beyond leading-colour. We show that, by systematically employing them, the...

The MC@NLO 2.0 Event Generator
This is the user's manual of MC@NLO 2.0. This package is a practical
implementation, based upon the HERWIG event generator, of the MC@NLO formalism,
which allows one to incorporate NLO QCD matrix elements consistently into...
Modularity and stability in ecological communities
Networks composed of distinct, densely connected subsystems are called modular. In ecology, it has been posited that a modular organization of species interactions would benefit the dynamical stability of communities, even...

Why α s cannot be determined from hadronic processes without simultaneously determining the parton distributions
Abstract: We show that any determination of the strong coupling αs from a process which depends on parton distributions, such as hadronic processes or deep-inelastic scattering, generally does not lead to a correct result unless...
Value of Information
Suppose we have a Bayesian model that combines evidence from several different sources. We want to know which model parameters most affect the estimate or decision from the model, or which of the parameter uncertainties drive...

Effect of population abundances on the stability of large random ecosystems
Random matrix theory successfully connects the structure of interactions of large ecological communities to their ability to respond to perturbations. One of the most debated aspects of this approach is that so far studies...
Precision determination of the strong coupling constant within a global PDF analysis
