Orbit separation dimension , previously introduced as amorphic complexity, is a powerful complexity measure for topological dynamical systems with pure-point spectrum. Here, we develop methods and tools for it that allow a systematic application to translation dynamical systems of tiling spaces that are generated by primitive inflation rules. These systems share many nice properties that permit th
Long-term noninvasive respiratory support, comprising continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and noninvasive ventilation (NIV), in children is expanding worldwide, with increasing complexities of children being considered for this type of ventilator support and expanding indications such as palliative care. There have been improvements in equipment and interfaces. Despite growing experience, t
This report presents findings from the case study on food sharing in the city of Milan, Italy, which was performed as part of the project CULTIVATE: Co-designing Food Sharing Innovation for Resilience: https://cultivate-project.eu/ in June 2024 - November 2024. The study aims to understand the economic, social, and environmental aspects of FSIs, which include growing and composting together, cooki
Pregnant women have historically and are currently being excluded from cervical cancer screening in most low and middle-income countries (LMICs). The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility and outcomes of including pregnant women in a HPV self-sampling-based screening program in Ethiopia. Pregnant women, recruited from a previously established cohort, were included. They answered a questi
When language learning takes place post-migration, the challenge is not only to attain fluency. Learning is tied up with life opportunities and is overshadowed by hopes and fears for the future. In the post-migration phase, hopeful thinking can support the acculturation process. Hope is a goal-related construct that captures variation in adaptability in the pursuit of positive outcomes. It involve
Our research aims to develop an intelligent control system for optimizing the operation of lighting systems for a jogging track in the countryside by using adaptive control methods, and optimization of built-in lighting control. Through this, lighting systems will be optimized, energy consumption will be minimized and the lighting system will be adapted to be able to handle a larger amount of loca
The use of gender-inclusive pronouns aims to make language more inclusive and to reduce biases and prejudices based on gender. Previous research shows that men tend to resist gender-inclusive pronouns more strongly than other individuals. The aim of the current study is to contribute to the understanding of this stronger resistance among men. We hypothesize that men are more negative toward gender
Lattice-based cryptography is in the process of being standardized. Several proposals to deal with side-channel information using lattice reduction exist. However, it has been shown that algorithms based on Bayesian updating are often more favorable in practice. In this work, we define distribution hints; a type of hint that allows modelling probabilistic information. These hints generalize most p
Vitrified bonded aluminum oxide grinding wheels are widespread in use for many applications in grinding, such as internal plunge grinding. However, there are challenges when it comes to the measurement, analysis and (geometric) modeling of their topography, which is crucial to understand and model the influence of the topography on the process behavior. Methodological advances allow for the detail
Are incumbent cabinets favored when a new government forms in parliamentary democracies? This article develops and evaluates a new hypothesis on the so-called incumbency advantage in government formation which stresses the role of interpersonal relations in coalition bargaining. We propose that the Prime Minister (PM) plays a particularly important role in bargaining and suggest that when the PM i
Introduction. Online pharmacies are playing an increasingly important role for both citizens and society. In the digital landscape, both legal and illegal online pharmacies are competing for visibility and customer appeal. This article analyses the layout and characteristics of online pharmacy websites. Method. The article is based on a qualitative study of legal and illegal online pharmacy websit
Registry-based randomised controlled trials (R-RCTs) represent a paradigm shift in research, with the potential to accomplish pragmatic but large trials with high external validity. In this paper, we review our experiences from planning and performing the REgistry-based randomised controlled trial of treatment Duration and mortality in long-term OXygen therapy (REDOX) trial, the first R-RCT within
Accurate imputation is essential for the reliability and success of downstream tasks. Recently, diffusion models have attracted great attention in this field. However, these models neglect the latent distribution in a lower-dimensional space derived from the observed data, which limits the generative capacity of the diffusion model. Additionally, dealing with the original missing data without labe
Aim: To assess the prognostic value of auditory event-related potentials (AERPs) registered at term equivalent age in very preterm infants. Methods: Infants (26.5 ± 2.0 gestational weeks (GWs), n = 41 of 64 recruited) were enrolled prenatally between January 2005 and May 2007 at Skåne University Hospital, Lund, Sweden. AERP and mismatch responses to changes in duration or frequency in pure tones w
