Mechanism balancing taxonomy

Simon Nessim Henein, Florent Cosandier, Hubert Pierre-Marie Benoît Schneegans

The balancing of mechanisms consists in distributing their moving masses, inertias, and elastic components in order to achieve key mechanical properties, such as the elimination of the shaking forces and moments exported onto their supporting structure or ...

Shape Models of Lucy Targets (3548) Eurybates and (21900) Orus from Disk-integrated Photometry

Stephan Hellmich

We use our new light curves, along with historical data, to determine the rotation state, photometric properties, and convex shape models of the targets of the Lucy mission (3548) Eurybates and (21900) Orus. We determine a retrograde spin for both targets, ...

Glacier-Fed Stream Biofilms Harbor Diverse Resistomes and Biosynthetic Gene Clusters

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Susheel Bhanu Busi, Grégoire Marie Octave Edouard Michoud, Leïla Ezzat, Massimo Bourquin, Tyler Joe Kohler, Stylianos Fodelianakis, Paraskevi Pramateftaki, Vincent Henri De Staercke, Matteo Tolosano, Michail Styllas

Antimicrobial resistance is an omnipresent phenomenon in the anthropogenically influenced ecosystems. However, its role in shaping microbial community dynamics in pristine environments is relatively unknown. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a universal ph ...

Language Model Decoding as Likelihood–Utility Alignment

Boi Faltings, Robert West, Maxime Jean Julien Peyrard, Martin Josifoski, Valentin Hartmann, Debjit Paul, Jiheng Wei, Frano Rajic

A critical component of a successful language generation pipeline is the decoding algorithm. However, the general principles that should guide the choice of a decoding algorithm re- main unclear. Previous works only compare decoding algorithms in narrow sc ...

Surprise and novelty in the brain

Wulfram Gerstner, Johanni Michael Brea, Alireza Modirshanechi, Sophia Becker

Notions of surprise and novelty have been used in various experimental and theoretical studies across multiple brain areas and species. However, 'surprise' and 'novelty' refer to different quantities in different studies, which raises concerns about whethe ...

The microbiome of cryospheric ecosystems

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Susheel Bhanu Busi, Grégoire Marie Octave Edouard Michoud, Leïla Ezzat, Massimo Bourquin, Tyler Joe Kohler, Stylianos Fodelianakis

The cryosphere includes those parts of Earth where water or soil is frozen, such as snow, ice, glaciers and permafrost soils. Here, the authors present a global inventory of cryospheric microbial communities and their genetic repertoires. The melting of th ...

A taxonomy of surprise definitions

Wulfram Gerstner, Johanni Michael Brea, Alireza Modirshanechi

Surprising events trigger measurable brain activity and influence human behavior by affecting learning, memory, and decision-making. Currently there is, however, no consensus on the definition of surprise. Here we identify 18 mathematical definitions of su ...

Taxonomic notes on Caelorrhina Hope, 1841, Coelorrhina Burmeister, 1842 and related genera

Michele De Palma

We here review the taxonomic standing of several generic names in the African Cetoniinae and re-establish Coelorrhina Burmeister, 1842 (= Cyprolais Thomson 1880 syn. nov.) as the first available name for Cetonia quadrimaculata Fabricius, 1781. ...

Taxonomic revision of the Eudicella White, 1839 complex, with description of three new subgenera

Michele De Palma

Morphological and DNA barcoding analysis of representative taxa in the Eudicella White complex identified five distinct subgenera, three of which are established herein: Eudicella (Coelorrhinella) n. subg., Eudicella (Aneurhina) n. subg., and Eudicella (Ce ...

Barcoding analysis and taxonomic revision of Goliathus Lamarck, 1802 (Scarabaeidae, Cetoniinae)

Michele De Palma

We conducted barcoding analysis of valid taxa in the genus Goliathus Lamarck, 1802 and clarified their relationships. Specimens of Goliathus goliatus (Drury, 1770) sampled in tropical rainforests from Cameroon to Kenya display degrees of genetic and phenot ...
