This study investigates the climbing dynamics of learning on a long-time scale, by using Drifting Markov models. Climbing constitutes a complex decision-making task that requires effective visual-motor coordination and exploration of the environment. Drifting Markov models, is a class of constrained heterogeneous Markov processes that allow the modeling of data that exhibit heterogeneity. By applying the later models on real-world visual motor skill data, we aim to uncover the persistent dynamics of learning in climbing. To that end a real case study is conducted based on an experiment, with results that (a) help in the understanding of skill acquisition in physically demanding environments; and (b) provide insights into the role of exploration and visual-motor coordination in learning.

Type-2 Neutrosophic Markov Chain Model for Subject-Independent Sign Language Recognition: A New Uncertainty-Aware Soft Sensor Paradigm.

Uncertainty-aware soft sensors in sign language recognition (SLR) integrate methods to quantify and manage the uncertainty in their predictions. This is particularly crucial in SLR due to the variability in sign language gestures and differences in individual signing styles. Managing uncertainty allows the system to handle variations in signing styles, lighting conditions, and occlusions more effectively.

Article Synopsis
- Fleming-Viot diffusions are stochastic models for understanding population dynamics, extending the Wright-Fisher models, focusing on allele frequencies in a theoretically infinite population influenced by random genetic drift and mutations.
- Recent research has explored Bayesian nonparametric inference for these diffusions when sampling individuals at different time points, with existing tools primarily catering to the Wright-Fisher model.
- The new R package FVDDPpkg addresses these limitations by providing efficient software for filtering and smoothing distributions in Fleming-Viot diffusions, incorporating a Monte Carlo approximation to lower computational expenses.

Colonizing populations at the leading edge of range expansion are expected to have a reduced genetic diversity and strong genetic structure caused by genetic drift and allele surfing. Until now, few studies have found the genetic signatures of allele surfing in expanding wild populations. Using mtDNA markers, we studied the genetic structure of the population of midday gerbils () expanding their range to the west in Kalmykia (southern Russia) following the new cycle of desertification, re-colonizing areas abandoned in the mid-2010s.

We apply statistical analysis to search for processes responsible for turbulence in physical systems. In our previous studies, we have shown that solar wind turbulence in the inertial range of large magnetohydrodynamic scales exhibits Markov properties. We have recently extended this approach on much smaller kinetic scales.
