Cracking arbitrariness: A data-driven study of auditory iconicity in spoken English.

Psychon Bull Rev

Department of Psychology, University of Milano - Bicocca, Piazza dell'Ateneo Nuovo 1, Milan, MI, 20126, Italy.

Auditory iconic words display a phonological profile that imitates their referents' sounds. Traditionally, those words are thought to constitute a minor portion of the auditory lexicon. In this article, we challenge this assumption by assessing the pervasiveness of onomatopoeia in the English auditory vocabulary through a novel data-driven procedure.

Campylobacter is a major cause of foodborne gastroenteritis worldwide, with the mishandling of contaminated chicken meat among the main pathways for human infection. Granted the disease burden due to this pathogen, systematic assessments of its potential impact are necessary. The aims of this study were to evaluate both presence and load of Campylobacter in chicken meat sold in traditional markets, assess risk factors related with the infrastructure and hygienic conditions of market stalls, and evaluate control strategies for campylobacteriosis in Peru through a quantitative microbiological risk assessment (QMRA), a data-driven, systematic approach to quantitatively assess risks by integrating empirical contamination levels, microbial behavior, and consumer exposure.

Identification of driving factors for heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons pollution in agricultural soils using interpretable machine learning.

Guangdong Provincial Academy of Environmental Science, Guangzhou 510045, China; Guangdong Laboratory of Soil Pollution Fate and Risk Management in Earth's Critical Zone and Guangdong Key Laboratory of Contaminated Environmental Management and Remediation, Guangzhou 510045, China.

This study integrated data-driven interpretable machine learning (ML) with statistical methods, complemented by knowledge-driven discrimination diagrams, to identify the primary driving factors of heavy metal (HM) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) contamination in agricultural soils influenced by complex sources in a rapidly industrializing region of a megacity in southern China. First, the statistical characteristics of the concentrations of HMs and PAHs, and their correlations with the environmental covariates were explored. Three ML models and a statistical model comprising multiple environmental variable predictors were developed and assessed to predict the concentration of HMs in the agricultural soil.

Improper socket fitting in lower-limb prostheses can lead to significant complications, including pain, skin lesions, and pressure ulcers. Current suspension and socket design practices rely predominantly on visual inspection of the residual limb and patient feedback. Monitoring stress distribution at the residual limb/socket interface offers a more objective approach.

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are crucial for enhancing driving safety by alerting drivers to unrecognized risks. However, traditional ADAS often fail to account for individual decision-making processes, including drivers' perceptions of the environment and personal driving styles, which can lead to non-compliance with the provided assistance. This paper introduces a novel Cognitive-Digital-Twin-based Driving Assistance System (CDAS), leveraging a personalized driving decision model that dynamically updates based on the driver's control and observation actions.
