Sequential optimality conditions and solution existence for nonsmooth multiobjective optimization problems See

In this paper, we consider a multiobjective optimization problem, where its feasibility set is unbounded and the related functions are nonsmooth and nonconvex. We first present new sequential necessary/sufficient optimality conditions that are established in terms of asymptotic value sets fo...

Zonotopic Set-Membership Fusion Estimation for Complex Networks: A Buffer-Aided Strategy See

This article is concerned with the zonotopic set-membership fusion estimation (SMFE) problem for a class of complex networks (CNs). The measurements of the CNs are transmitted to a remote fusion center through a shared communication network. Due to the limited network bandwidth, the...

The Conflict between Regulatory Agencies over the 20,000-Fold Lowering of the Tolerable Daily Intake (TDI) for Bisphenol A (BPA) by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) See

Background: The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recommended lowering their estimated tolerable daily intake (TDI) for bisphenol A (BPA) 20,000-fold to 0.2 ng / kg body weight (BW) / day. BPA is an extensively studied high production volume endocrine disrupting chemical (EDC)&...

Breast cancer risk and prevention in 2024: An overview from the Breast Cancer UK - Breast Cancer Prevention Conference See

The Breast Cancer UK—Breast Cancer Prevention Conference addressed risk from environmental pollutants and health behaviour-related breast-cancer risk. Epidemiological studies examining individual chemicals and breast cancer risk have produced inconclusive results including endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) Bisphenol&...

Search for New Physics in Jet Multiplicity Patterns of Multilepton Events at √𝑠 = 13  TeV See

A first search for beyond the standard model physics in jet multiplicity patterns of multilepton events is presented, using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138  fb^{−1} of 13 TeV proton-proton collisions recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC. The search...

Genetic insights into the epidemiology of cataracts, prevention and alternative treatment See

Cataract, a leading cause of visual impairment and blindness, remains a significant global health challenge, particularly in the context of an aging population. As the global population continues to age, the burden of cataract on healthcare systems, especially in developing countries, is...

A machine learning method for predicting the elongation to failure of Al–Si alloy in high pressure die casting combining experiment and modeling See

High-pressure die casting (HPDC) of Al–Si alloys faces challenges in improving mechanical properties and early failure due to process-induced defects. Traditional quality assessment experiments and modeling methods are costly and lack predictive capability. This study proposed a machine learning (ML)&...

Digital ventures in practice: Exploring performance factors through a netnographic immersion journal See

The continuous expansion of digital platforms has transformed the entrepreneurial landscape, enabling new forms of business activity conducted entirely online. This study explores how digital ventures with no physical presence build and sustain performance through platform-based practices. The research...
