A Corpus Approach to Roman Law Based on Justinian’s Digest
Traditional philological methods in Roman legal scholarship such as close reading and strict juristic reasoning have analysed law in extraordinary detail. Such methods, however, have paid less attention to the empirical...

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to examine the success rate of less invasive surfactant administration (LISA), to identify early predictive factors for the outcome of LISA, and to compare neonatal outcomes between the LISA...

Using a Genetic Algorithm to Optimize an Electric Field Ionization Pulse

Experimentally, we would like to demonstrate the process of selective field ionization of electrons as evidence of quantum control in a system of ultracold rubidium-85 Rydberg atoms. In order to accomplish this, an electric...

Sampling the Variational Posterior with Local Refinement.
Marton Havasi, Jasper Snoek, Dustin Tran, Jonathan Gordon, José Miguel Hernández-Lobato

Variational inference is an optimization-based method for approximating the posterior distribution of the parameters in Bayesian probabilistic models. A key challenge of variational inference is to approximate the posterior with...
Sequence-based prediction of protein binding mode landscapes.
Interactions between disordered proteins involve a wide range of changes in the structure and dynamics of the partners involved. These changes can be classified in terms of binding modes, which include disorder-to-order (DO)...

Consistent avoidance of human disturbance over large geographical distances by a migratory bird
Recent work on animal personalities has demonstrated that individuals may show consistent behaviour across situations and contexts. These studies were often carried out in one location and/or during short time intervals. Many...
Divorce and infidelity are associated with skewed adult sex ratios in birds
Adult sex ratio (ASR) is a fundamental concept in population demography, and recent theory suggests that ASR plays a central role in social behavior, mating systems, and parental care [1-6]. Unbalanced ASRs are predicted to...

Enhanced cross-species utility of conserved microsatellite markers in shorebirds
Background: Microsatellite markers are popular genetic markers frequently used in forensic biology. Despite their popularity, the characterisation of polymorphic microsatellite loci and development of suitable markers takes...
How do biases in sex ratio and disease characteristics affect the spread of sexually transmitted infections?
The epidemiology of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is inherently linked to host mating dynamics. Studies across many taxa show that adult sex ratio, a major determinant of host mating dynamics, is often skewed -...

Integrating spatial data and shorebird nesting locations to predict the potential future impact of global warming on coastal habitats
One of the expected effects of the global warming is changing coastal habitats by accelerating the rate of sea level rise. Coastal habitats support large number of marine and wetland species including shorebirds (plovers...

Negotiation between parents over care
Parental care is often beneficial for the young but costly for the caregiving parent. Because both parents benefit from care via the offspring, whereas they pay the costs individually, a conflict is expected about how much care...

Motor pathway convergence predicts syllable repertoire size in oscine birds
Behavioral specializations are frequently associated with expansions of the brain regions controlling them. This principle of proper mass spans sensory, motor, and cognitive abilities and has been observed in a wide variety of...
Parental cooperation in an extreme hot environment
One of the most apparent examples of cooperation between unrelated individuals is biparental care whereby the male and the female parent share the rearing of the offspring. Theoretical models of care predict that selection...
Carotenoid-dependent plumage coloration is associated with reduced male care in passerine birds
The immense diversity of plumage coloration exhibited by birds is the result of either pigments deposited in the feathers or microstructural arrangements of feather barbules. Some of the most common pigments are carotenoids...

Mortality cost of sex-specific parasitism in wild bird populations
Jose O. Valdebenito, András Liker, Naerhulan Halimubieke, Jordi Figuerola, Tamas Szekely
Dec 02, 2020
Sex-specific mortality is frequent in animals although the causes of different male versus female mortalities remain poorly understood. Parasitism is ubiquitous in nature with widespread detrimental effects to hosts, making...
Experimental assessment of mating opportunities in three shorebird species
Mating opportunities may differ between closely related species, although the evidence for such variation is scant. Here we compare remating opportunities and courtship behaviour between three shorebird species: the Kentish...
