The Role of Sex and Age on Pre-drinking: An Exploratory International Comparison of 27 Countries

Aims This exploratory study aims to model the impact of sex and age on the percentage of pre-drinking in 27 countries, presenting a single model of pre-drinking behaviour for all countries and then comparing the role of sex and age on pre-drinking behavio ...

The search for multiple populations in Magellanic Clouds clusters - V. Correlation between cluster age and abundance spreads

Carmela Lardo

In our HST photometric survey, we have been searching for multiple stellar populations (MPs) in Magellanic Clouds (MCs) massive star clusters which span a significant range of ages (similar to 1.5-11Gyr). In the previous papers of the series, we have shown ...

The individual structure of visual space

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Gregory Francis, Lukasz Grzeczkowski

Common factors are ubiquitous. First, we show that, however in vision, correlations of performance in similar paradigms are low even though test-retest reliability is high. Second, one might expect that correlations increase with increasing age because of ...

DrinkSense: Characterizing Youth Drinking Behavior using Smartphones

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Darshan Santani

Alcohol consumption is the number one risk factor for morbidity and mortality among young people. In late adolescence and early adulthood, excessive drinking and intoxication are more common than in any other life period, increasing the risk of adverse phy ...

Multi-factorial approach in aging research

Michael Herzog, Aaron Michael Clarke

The developed world is aging faster than ever before. Even in the absence of neurodegenerative disease, aging affects all kinds of human functions including perception and cognition. In most perceptual studies, one paradigm is tested and it is usually foun ...

Young runoff fractions control streamwater age and solute concentration dynamics

Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Benettin, Gianluca Botter

We introduce a new representation of coupled solute and water age dynamics at the catchment scale, which shows how the contributions of young runoff waters can be directly referenced to observed water quality patterns. The methodology stems from recent tre ...

Timely Updates over an Erasure Channel

Elie Najm, Emina Soljanin

Using an age of information (AoI) metric, we examine the transmission of coded updates through a binary erasure channel to a monitor/receiver. %Coded redundancy is employed to ensure the timely delivery of codupdate packets. We start by deriving the averag ...

Reduced metabolic function and structural alterations in inherited retinal dystrophies: investigating the effect of peripapillary vessel oxygen saturation and vascular diameter on the retinal nerve fibre layer thickness

PurposeTo evaluate the relationship between the peripapillary metabolic alterations [retinal vessel Oximetry (RO)] and the structural findings [retinal vessel diameter and retinal nerve fibre layer thickness (RNFL)] in patients with inherited retinal dystr ...

Age of Information: The Gamma Awakening

Elie Najm, Rajai Nasser

Status update systems is an emerging field of study that is gaining interest in the information theory community. We consider a scenario where a monitor is interested in being up to date with respect to the status of some system which is not directly acces ...

Is there a common cause for perceptual decline in the aging brain?

Michael Herzog, Aaron Michael Clarke

Even in the absence of neurodegenerative disease, aging strongly affects vision. Whereas optical deficits are well documented, much less is known perceptual deficits. In most perceptual studies, one paradigm is tested and it is usually found that older par ...
