Stoppen met kolencentrales en ouderwetse hoogovens, dat moet, dat zijn de grootste stappen. Maar ja, dat kan de burger niet, dat is aan de politiek en het bedrijfsleven dus ligt de nadruk elders. https://mastodon.social/@Snoro/112000706977419967

Variants of the slacks-based measure with assurance region and zeros in input-output data
Incorporating an assurance region (AR) into the slacks-based measure (SBM) improves practicality; however, its efficiency measure may not have desirable properties, such as monotonicity. We incorporate a closer target setting approach into the SBM with AR and a variant of the SBM with AR. We demonstrate that the efficiency measure with the hybrid approach has the same desirable properties as that without AR, and we also show that the efficiency scores can be computed by solving linear programmi…

Text me the data: Generating Ground Pressure Sequence from Textual Descriptions for HAR
In human activity recognition (HAR), the availability of substantial ground truth is necessary for training efficient models. However, acquiring ground pressure data through physical sensors itself can be cost-prohibitive, time-consuming. To address this critical need, we introduce Text-to-Pressure (T2P), a framework designed to generate extensive ground pressure sequences from textual descriptions of human activities using deep learning techniques. We show that the combination of vector quanti…

‘Grownup’ leaders are pushing us towards catastrophe, says former US climate chief
“We are slowed down by those who think of themselves as grownups and believe decarbonisation at the speed the climate community calls for is unrealistic,” said Todd Stern,
who served as a special envoy for climate change under Barack Obama, and helped negotiate the 2015 Paris agreement.
“They say that we need to slow down, that what is being proposed [in cuts to greenhouse gas emissions] is u…

Exact and Efficient Numerical approaches to MIT Bag Model
In this document, we examine exact and efficient numerical approaches to the MIT Bag Model, a theoretical framework used to describe the properties of bound quarks in Hadrons. We present the exact and Boundary Value Problem (BVP) numerical approaches. Both methods are effective in calculating the eigen-functions and energy levels. Notably, the precision of the BVP approach matches up to 10 decimal places when compared to the exact approach.

Confirmation of a Substantial Discrepancy between Radio and UV--IR Measures of the Star Formation Rate Density at 0.2 < z < 1.3
We present the initial sample of redshifts for 3,839 galaxies in the MeerKAT DEEP2 field -- the deepest $\sim$1.4\,GHz radio field yet observed. Using a spectrophotometric technique combining coarse optical spectra with broadband photometry, we obtain redshifts with $σ_z \leq 0.01(1+z)$. The resulting radio luminosity functions between $0.2

Discrepancies in a $48 Million Loan Involving Trump and His Chicago Tower Should be Criminally Investigated: Legal Experts
The court-appointed monitor overseeing Trump’s business empire added new intrigue on Friday to the Chicago loan amid disputes over its size, the parties to the agreement, or whether it even exists.

Pour les données de SANTÉ!! Et la pseudonymisation, la NSA s'en marre!
Vu l'acharnement sur les uns et la flexibilité avec les autres, cela décrédibilise toute protection de données privées. L'état de droit, normalement, ce n'est pas deux poids, deux mesures.
