Learning how to understand complexity and deal with sustainability challenges – A framework for a comprehensive approach and its application in university education
<p>Sustainability challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss, poverty and rapid urbanization are complex and strongly interrelated. In order to successfully deal with these challenges, we need comprehensive ... -
A Uniquely Ergodic Cellular Automaton
<p> We construct a one-dimensional uniquely ergodic cellular automaton which is not nilpotent. This automaton can perform asymptotically infinitely sparse computation, which nevertheless never disappears completely. The ... -
Aims in the practice of historiography: An interview study with Finnish historians
<p>Many recent approaches to history education—such as ones related to historical thinking, historical reasoning, or inquiry-based learning—have brought the practice of historiography (i.e. historical research and writing) ... -
Low free 25-hydroxyvitamin D and high vitamin D binding protein and parathyroid hormone in obese Caucasians. A complex association with bone?
BackgroundStudies have shown altered vitamin D metabolism in obesity. We assessed differences between obese and normal-weight subjects in total, free, and bioavailable 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH) D, 25(OH) D-Free, and ... -
Efficient cross-validation for kernelized least-squares regression with sparse basis expansions
We propose an efficient algorithm for calculating hold-out and cross-validation (CV) type of estimates for sparse regularized least-squares predictors. Holding out H data points with our method requires O(min(H^2n,Hn^2)) ... -
A brain network for deep brain stimulation induced cognitive decline in Parkinson's disease
Reich et al. show that DBS-induced cognitive decline is associated with connectivity between the stimulation site and a specific brain network implicated in lesion-induced memory impairment. Transforming this network into ... -

Rapid quantification of mcyB copy numbers on dry chemistry PCR chips and predictability of microcystin concentrations in freshwater environments
<p> Microcystin-producing cyanobacteria cause serious water quality problems worldwide, which has led to growing pressure for more intensive monitoring. Molecular biology methods that are based on identification and ... -
A longitudinal plasma lipidomics dataset from children who developed islet autoimmunity and type 1 diabetes
Early prediction and prevention of type 1 diabetes (T1D) are currently unmet medical needs. Previous metabolomics studies suggest that children who develop T1D are characterised by a distinct metabolic profile already ...
