Stronger predation intensity and impact on prey communities in the tropics

https://sites.temple.edu/bjsewall/files/2021/08/Freestone-et-al-2021-Ecology-Stronger-predation-intensity-impact-on-prey-communities-in-the-tropics.pdf

evolutionary time across the globe (Menge and Lub-chenco 1981, Albouy et al. 2019, Silvestro et al. 2020). Although evidence continues to accrue in support of the prediction that predation intensity is stronger at lower latitudes (e.g., Schemske et al. 2009, Roslin et al. 2017, Reynolds et al. 2018), debate on its generality persists (Roesti et al. 2020). Further, variation in predation ...

It’s RILA Time: An Introduction to Registered Index-Linked Annuiti

https://www.fox.temple.edu/sites/fox/files/documents/Cummins%20Conference%202022/RILA_Moenig_JRI_final.pdf

Registered index-linked annuities (RILAs) are increasingly popular equity-based re-tirement savings products o ered by U.S. life insurance companies. They combine features of xed-index annuities and traditional variable annuities (TVAs), o ering in-vestors equity exposure with downside protection in a tax-deferred setting. This article introduces RILAs to the academic literature by describing ...

FTL: Improving SSD Lifetime via Exploiting Content Locality

https://cis.temple.edu/~he/publications/Conferences/DeltaFTL-Eurosys12.pdf

Abstract NAND flash-based SSDs suffer from limited lifetime due to the fact that NAND flash can only be programmed or erased for limited times. Among various approaches to address this problem, we propose to reduce the number of writes to the flash via exploiting the content locality between the write data and its corresponding old version in the flash. This content locality means, the new ...

Legendre-Hadamard conditions for two-phase configuration

https://faculty.cst.temple.edu/~yury/LH4lam.pdf

We generalize the classical Legendre-Hadamard conditions by using quadratic extensions of the energy around a set of two configurations and obtain new algebraic necessary conditions for nonsmooth strong local minimizers. The implied bounds of stability are easily accessible as we illustrate on a nontrivial example where quasiconvexification is unknown.

Adaptive Procedural Generation in Minecraft - Temple University

https://cis.temple.edu/~wangp/5603-AI/Project/2022S/pattersonblaker/Ward_Patterson_Final_Report.pdf

1 Abstract Minecraft has been the focus of much AI research in past years. Most recently, interest has risen in procedural generation of settlements in Minecraft, largely due to a annual competition established in 2018 called the Generative Design in Minecraft Competition. Inspired by this recent research, we aim to develop a set of algorithms that are capable of building a realistic ...

EXPERT OR LAY OPINION – WHERE IS THE LINE?

https://law.temple.edu/aer/2019/06/19/expert-or-lay-opinion-where-is-the-line/

When the brake pads start to wear down, it’s riskier to ride in the rain.” Now, what is that? Expert or lay opinion? And why do we care? Because to proffer expert opinion ...
