Modulation of Visually Induced Self-motion Illusions by α Transcranial Electric Stimulation over the Superior Parietal Cortex

The growing popularity of virtual reality systems has led to a renewed interest in understanding the neurophysiological correlates of the illusion of self-motion (vection), a phenomenon that can be both intentionally induced or avoided in such systems, dep ...

Content Moderation in Online Platforms

Manoel Horta Ribeiro

A critical role of online platforms like Facebook, Wikipedia, YouTube, Amazon, Doordash, and Tinder is to moderate content. Interventions like banning users or deleting comments are carried out thousands of times daily and can potentially improve our onlin ...

Using Negative Control Populations to Assess Unmeasured Confounding and Direct Effects

Mats Julius Stensrud

Sometimes treatment effects are absent in a subgroup of the population. For example, penicillin has no effect on severe symptoms in individuals infected by resistant Staphylococcus aureus, and codeine has no effect on pain in individuals with certain polym ...

Touch and Closeness in Naturally Organized Activities

Countless aspects of touch and closeness have been questioned in an unprecedented way during the recent Covid epidemic. Social practices as banal as greetings were both reflexively and practically challenged and sometimes deeply altered, resulting in painf ...

The arrow-of-time in neuroimaging time series identifies causal triggers of brain function

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Thomas William Arthur Bolton, Maria Giulia Preti, Enrico Amico, Raphaël Pierre Liégeois

Moving from association to causal analysis of neuroimaging data is crucial to advance our understanding of brain function. The arrow-of-time (AoT), that is, the known asymmetric nature of the passage of time, is the bedrock of causal structures shaping phy ...

Deplatforming did not decrease Parler users' activity on fringe social media

Robert West, Manoel Horta Ribeiro

Online platforms have banned ("deplatformed") influencers, communities, and even entire websites to reduce content deemed harmful. Deplatformed users often migrate to alternative platforms, which raises concerns about the effectiveness of deplatforming. He ...

Causal inference with recurrent and competing events

Matias Janvin, Mats Julius Stensrud, Pal Christie Ryalen

Many research questions concern treatment effects on outcomes that can recur several times in the same individual. For example, medical researchers are interested in treatment effects on hospitalizations in heart failure patients and sports injuries in ath ...

Localized model order reduction and domain decomposition methods for coupled heterogeneous systems

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Niccolo' Discacciati

We propose a model order reduction technique to accurately approximate the behavior of multi-component systems without any a-priori knowledge of the coupled model. In the offline phase, we construct independent surrogate models by solving the local problem ...

CDKL5 sculpts functional callosal connectivity to promote cognitive flexibility

Valerio Zerbi

Functional and structural connectivity alterations in short- and long-range projections have been reported across neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD). Interhemispheric callosal projection neurons (CPN) represent one of the major long-range projections in th ...

Longitudinal incremental propensity score interventions for limited resource settings

Mats Julius Stensrud, Aaron Leor Sarvet

Many real‐life treatments are of limited supply and cannot be provided to all individuals in the population. For example, patients on the liver transplant waiting list usually cannot be assigned a liver transplant immediately at the time they reach highest ...
