Fast sparse representative tree splitting via local density for large-scale clustering by Renmin Wang, Jie Li

“…This paper proposes a novel large-scale clustering framework with three key innovations: (1) Parameter-free cluster discovery: unlike conventional methods requiring predefined cluster numbers, our algorithm autonomously identifies natural cluster structures through dynamic density-based splitting decisions. (2) Hybrid sampling-partitioning strategy: by integrating randomized sampling with K-means-based partitioning, we extract high-quality representative points that preserve data integrity with linear computational complexity. (3) Local density-driven MST segmentation: A minimum spanning tree (MST) constructed from representatives is adaptively partitioned using a local density criterion, which dynamically disconnects weakly associated edges by comparing density peaks between adjacent representative points. …”

On Anisothermal Electromagnetic Elastic Deformations in Flight in Fair Weather and Lightning Storms by Luiz M. B. C. Campos, Manuel J. S. Silva

“…The thermomechanical effects on aircraft structures in flight are compared between fair weather and a lightning storm based on a model problem, namely, equations of anisothermal unsteady piezoelectromagnetism are solved in the particular case of a parallel-sided slab assuming (i) steady conditions and spatial dependence only on the coordinate orthogonal to the slab; (ii) the displacement vector orthogonal to the slab; (iii) the magnetic field orthogonal to the electric field, with both in the plane parallel to the sides of the slab. …”

Inverse Stochastic Resonance in Cerebellar Purkinje Cells. by Anatoly Buchin, Sarah Rieubland, Michael Häusser, Boris S Gutkin, Arnd Roth

“…Purkinje neurons play an important role in cerebellar computation since their axons are the only projection from the cerebellar cortex to deeper cerebellar structures. They have complex internal dynamics, which allow them to fire spontaneously, display bistability, and also to be involved in network phenomena such as high frequency oscillations and travelling waves. …”
