Sustainable intensification (SI) of agriculture can produce more food to meet the demand of a growing population while considering ecosystem health. The current SI estimation framework ignores the complex coupling between input and output intensity of arable land. A method for coupled analysis of arable land input intensity and output intensity based on sliding windows is proposed. By calculating the correlation coefficient and partial correlation coefficient between input intensity and output intensity in different value ranges as the order parameter, the phase transition and the influence process of input intensity on output intensity can be explained. Meanwhile, a python-based framework is developed. An application of the method was made to reveal the interaction process between annual provincial input intensity and output intensity in mainland China. Researchers in many fields may benefit from the method by obtaining a fast way to analysis the coupling relationship between driving and dependent variables in complex systems.•New method for SI estimation is presented.•The order parameter of the coupling relationship between input and output intensity is calculated based on sliding windows.•Analysis of coupling relationships between driving and dependent variables in complex systems.

In a complex dynamical system, noise, feedback, and external forces shape behavior that can range from regularity to high-dimensional chaos. Multiple feedback sources can significantly alter its dynamics, potentially even suppressing the system's output. This study investigates the impact of competing feedback sources on a stochastic complex dynamical system using a photonic neuron-a diode laser with external optical feedback.

To extract information from NMR experiments, users need to identify the number of resonances in the spectrum, together with characteristic features such as chemical shifts and intensities. In many applications, particularly those involving biomolecules, this procedure is typically a manual and laborious process. While many algorithms are available to tackle this problem, their performance tends to be inferior to that of an experienced user.

This study aimed to determine the effect of complex training (CT) on post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) effect magnitude, 5- and 30-m linear sprint, 5-0-5 change-of-direction (COD), back squat (BS) and hip thrust (HT) one-repetition maximum [1RM], and jumping performance (countermovement jump [CMJ], drop jump [DJ], and broad jump [BJ]). The PAPE effect was elicited before and after each intervention by 3 BS repetitions at 90% 1RM and verified by CMJ performance. Twenty-four soccer players were randomly and equally assigned to 6 weeks of either medium (MED; [65-70%1RM]) or high-intensity (HIGH; [80-85%1RM]) CT performed twice a week.
