Computational Detection of Intertextual Parallels in Biblical Hebrew: A Benchmark Study Using Transformer-Based Language Models
Identifying parallel passages in biblical Hebrew is foundational in biblical scholarship for uncovering intertextual relationships. Traditional methods rely on manual comparison, which is labor-intensive and prone to human error. This study evaluates the potential of pre-trained transformer-based language models, including E5, AlephBERT, MPNet, and LaBSE, for detecting textual parallels in the Hebrew Bible. Focusing on known parallels between the books of Samuel/Kings and Chronicles, I assessed…

Tuff sommar för omsorgen – färre händer för de äldre när personal utvisas
Äldreomsorgen står på randen till kaos när erfarna medarbetare tvingas lämna landet. Vem ska ta hand om de äldre när händerna blir allt färre?

The Impact of Galaxy Overdensities and Ionized Bubbles on Ly$α$ Emission $z\sim7.0\mbox{--}8.5$
Ly$α$ spectroscopy with {\it JWST} is opening a new window on the sizes of ionized bubbles through the reionization epoch. Theoretical expectations suggest typical bubble radii should be 0.6--1.5 pMpc at $z\simeq 7$, assuming neutral hydrogen fractions of the intergalactic medium in the range $\overline{x}_{\rm HI}$=0.5--0.7. Here we investigate this picture using {\it JWST} to characterize the environment and Ly$α$ emission of 292 galaxies at $7.0

A controversial new book:
"We are eating the Earth"
says excess carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is a long-term challenge resulting from an otherwise cheerful story,
in which more people live better lives with fuller bellies and bigger dreams.
Lawyer-turned-science-cop Tim Searchinger discovered that the popular carbon solution of 20 years ago,
-- plant-based biofuels,
-- was a disaster in the making.
His insight: Land used to grow fuel w…

‘We Are Eating the Earth,’ argues for producing more food on less land to avert climate crisis.

Ich hatte mich auf der #bibliocon25 noch gefragt, wann ich denn das letzte Mal in Bremen war bei einem Bibliothekartag. Beim Stöbern im BIB-OPUS habe ich die Antwort gefunden: 2014 war es und meine Präsentation hieß "Bibliotheken: Wir öffnen Daten. Zum Stand der Entwicklung einer offenen Dateninfrastruktur", siehe
