Published: December 2020

Granger causality (GC) is undoubtedly the most widely used method to infer cause-effect relations from observational time series. Several nonlinear alternatives to GC have been proposed based on kernel methods. We generalize kernel Granger causality by considering the variables' cross-relations explicitly in Hilbert spaces. The framework is shown to generalize the linear and kernel GC methods and comes with tighter bounds of performance based on Rademacher complexity. We successfully evaluate its performance in standard dynamical systems, as well as to identify the arrow of time in coupled Rössler systems, and it is exploited to disclose the El Niño-Southern Oscillation phenomenon footprints on soil moisture globally.

Central Eastern European countries (CEEc) are characterized both by huge diversity in income inequality and, on average, by lower levels of well-being than in the other European Union (EU) countries. Given that income inequality may affect well-being negatively, the present study aims to explore the links between income inequalities and different dimensions of well-being in the eight CEEc, i.e.

The amygdala plays a crucial role in various behavioral functions and psychiatric conditions, with its morphology showing alterations in sleep disorders. While the impact of chronic sleep disorders on amygdala morphology has been studied, the effects of acute sleep deprivation (ASD) remain largely unexplored. The present study aimed to investigate the modulation between amygdala sub-region volumes and spatial working memory (SWM) performance under ASD conditions.

Efficient, non-destructive and real-time meat freshness assessment has always been a hot research topic. This paper presents a novel approach for detecting lamb meat freshness using a flexible optoelectronic sensing system combined with an integrated learning model. We developed a flexible impedance sensing system and a flexible optical sensing system through laser direct writing and transfer technology.

Complex systems, such as in brains, markets, and societies, exhibit internal dynamics influenced by external factors. Disentangling delayed external effects from internal dynamics within these systems is often difficult. We propose using a Vector Autoregressive model with eXogenous input (VARX) to capture delayed interactions between internal and external variables.
