Probing Solar Polar Regions
The magnetic fields and dynamical processes in the solar polar regions play a crucial role in the solar magnetic cycle and in supplying mass and energy to the fast solar wind, ultimately being vital in controlling solar activities and driving space weather. Despite numerous efforts to explore these regions, to date no imaging observations of the Sun's poles have been achieved from vantage points out of the ecliptic plane, leaving their behavior and evolution poorly understood. This observation …

It used to be that the use of #genAI for #PeerReview was forbidden (at least for anything else other than helping with the language).
I've just checked the policy on this from #Nature and it's…

Longitudinal review of portfolios with minimum variance approach before during and after the pandemic
This study investigates the impact of the pandemic on the most traded stocks in the Colombian stock market for the date of January 17, 2024. Based on the daily data of the most traded companies in Colombia for said date and covering a period general from 2015 to 2023, in a summarized way our analysis reveals that in the period 2015-2019, the return reached 5.70%, with a relatively low risk of 18.45%. However, in the following period 2016 -2020, although the yield decreased to 5.40%, the risk ex…

Challenges in GenAI and Authentication: a scoping review
Authentication and authenticity have been a security challenge since the beginning of information sharing, especially in the context of digital information. With the advancement of generative artificial intelligence, these challenges have evolved, demanding a more up-to-date analysis of their impacts on society and system security. This work presents a scoping review that analyzed 88 documents from the IEEExplorer, Scopus, and ACM databases, promoting an analysis of the resulting portfolio thro…

From Chaos to Automation: Enabling the Use of Unstructured Data for Robotic Process Automation
The growing volume of unstructured data within organizations poses significant challenges for data analysis and process automation. Unstructured data, which lacks a predefined format, encompasses various forms such as emails, reports, and scans. It is estimated to constitute approximately 80% of enterprise data. Despite the valuable insights it can offer, extracting meaningful information from unstructured data is more complex compared to structured data. Robotic Process Automation (RPA) has ga…

Causal identification with $Y_0$
We present the $Y_0$ Python package, which implements causal identification algorithms that apply interventional, counterfactual, and transportability queries to data from (randomized) controlled trials, observational studies, or mixtures thereof. $Y_0$ focuses on the qualitative investigation of causation, helping researchers determine whether a causal relationship can be estimated from available data before attempting to estimate how strong that relationship is. Furthermore, $Y_0$ provides gu…

Advances in Small-Footprint Keyword Spotting: A Comprehensive Review of Efficient Models and Algorithms
Small-Footprint Keyword Spotting (SF-KWS) has gained popularity in today's landscape of smart voice-activated devices, smartphones, and Internet of Things (IoT) applications. This surge is attributed to the advancements in Deep Learning, enabling the identification of predefined words or keywords from a continuous stream of words. To implement the SF-KWS model on edge devices with low power and limited memory in real-world scenarios, a efficient Tiny Machine Learning (TinyML) framework is essen…

PDRs4All XIV: CH radical and $H_3^+$ molecular ion in the irradiated protoplanetary disk d203-506
Most protoplanetary disks experience a phase in which they are subjected to strong ultraviolet radiation from nearby massive stars. This UV radiation can substantially alter their chemistry by producing numerous radicals and molecular ions. In this Letter we present detailed analysis of the JWST-NIRSpec spectrum of the d203-506 obtained as part of the PDRs4All Early Release Science program. Using state-of-the-art spectroscopic data, we searched for species using a multi-molecule fitting tool, P…

Embedded DevOps: A Survey on the Application of DevOps Practices in Embedded Software and Firmware Development
The adoption of DevOps practices in embedded systems and firmware development is emerging as a response to the growing complexity of modern hardware--software co-designed products. Unlike cloud-native applications, embedded systems introduce challenges such as hardware dependency, real-time constraints, and safety-critical requirements. This literature review synthesizes findings from 20 academic and industrial sources to examine how DevOps principles--particularly continuous integration, conti…

Leveraging AM and FM Rhythm Spectrograms for Dementia Classification and Assessment
This study explores the potential of Rhythm Formant Analysis (RFA) to capture long-term temporal modulations in dementia speech. Specifically, we introduce RFA-derived rhythm spectrograms as novel features for dementia classification and regression tasks. We propose two methodologies: (1) handcrafted features derived from rhythm spectrograms, and (2) a data-driven fusion approach, integrating proposed RFA-derived rhythm spectrograms with vision transformer (ViT) for acoustic representations alo…
