When Math Hurts: Math Anxiety Predicts Pain Network Activation in Anticipation of Doing Math

Math can be difficult, and for those with high levels of mathematics-anxiety (HMAs), math is associated with tension, apprehension, and fear. But what underlies the feelings of dread effected by math anxiety? Are HMAs' feelings about math m...

A meta-analysis of the relation between math anxiety and math achievement.

Meta-analyses from the 1990s have previously established a significant, small-to-moderate, and negative correlation between math achievement and math anxiety. Since these publications, research has continued to investigate this relation wit...

Working memory, math performance, and math anxiety

A multi-state climate epidemiology analysis of Lassa fever using interpretable machine learning and an early warning framework.

Developing nonlinear time-varying weighted combined prediction framework for infectious diseases: validation with respiratory infectious diseases and sexually transmitted infections.

Save Our Roads from GNSS Jamming: A Crowdsource Framework for Threat Evaluation

Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) jamming is an acute problem in the world of modern navigation. As more and more applications rely on GNSS for both position and timing, jamming ramifications are becoming more severe. In this paper...

Comparative Evaluation of Radio Network Planning for Different 5G-NR Channel Models on Urban Macro Environments in Quito City

The 5th-Generation New Radio (5G-NR) network have been widely deployed around the world in the frequency range 1/range 2 bands. Once specific frequency bands within these ranges can vary across different countries and regions due to regulat...

Restoring the Fluctuation–Dissipation Theorem in Kardar–Parisi–Zhang Universality Class through a New Emergent Fractal Dimension

The Kardar–Parisi–Zhang (KPZ) equation describes a wide range of growth-like phenomena, with applications in physics, chemistry and biology. There are three central questions in the study of KPZ growth: the determination of height probabili...

InsDD-YOLO: Detection of Transmission Line Insulator Damage Based on the Improved YOLOv13 Model

Amidst the rapid global expansion of smart grids, ensuring the safety and reliability of power transmission systems has become paramount. Insulators are critical components of high-voltage transmission lines, providing both electrical insul...

Characterization of Surface Topography Variation in the Ultra-Precision Tool Servo-Based Diamond Cutting of 3D Microstructured Surfaces

Previous models of the relative tool-work vibration are not generalized to represent the surface generation mechanism in the ultra-precision tool servo-based diamond cutting (UTSDC) of three-dimensional (3D) microstructured surfaces. This i...

Occupancy Prediction Using Low-Cost and Low-Resolution Heat Sensors for Smart Offices

Solving the challenge of occupancy prediction is crucial in order to design efficient and sustainable office spaces and automate lighting, heating, and air circulation in these facilities. In office spaces where large areas need to be obser...

Computers and automation

IN THE BRIEF SPAN of years since the closing days of World War II, we have witnessed a technological development in computers of such broad proportions that it is still impossible to appraise its far reaching effects adequately. Perhaps, th...

A Robust Information Life Cycle Management Framework for Securing and Governing Critical Infrastructure Systems

In modern societies, the rampant growth of the Internet, both on the technological and social level, has created fertile ground for the emergence of new types of risk. On top of that, it enhances pre-existing threats by offering new means f...

Implementation of Synology NAS-Based Storage System Type DS220+ at LSP-SV IPB

As the digital world evolves, safeguarding digital assets becomes crucial for organizations, particularly educational institutions. LSP SV-IPB, as a vocational certification body, manages student data, academic records, and other valuable i...
