Relocating gendered violence and anti-genderism within authoritarian populist imagination in Turkey by Erman Örsan Yetiş

“…Second, it serves to flesh out a masculine understanding of power as a form of masculinist entrenchment, relaying a will-to-power or an insistent desire to maintain power at all costs. Through masculinist entrenchment, the incumbent power normalises the arbitrary use of punitive violence against political dissidents and rivals, and it also attempts to reinforce its image of being potent and invincible amid ongoing economic, political, and social turmoil, adopting an aggressive stance. …”

Shaping Inflation Expectations in the Czech Economy: a Case of Financial Analysts and Corporate Managers by Martin Mandel, Jan Vejmělek

“…Inflation expectations play an important role in the transmission mechanism of inflation targeting in the context of the length and costs of the disinflationary process. The objective of our paper is to employ econometric analysis to verify whether financial analysts’ and corporate managers’ inflation expectations in Czechia (from Q3 1999 to Q2 2024) show basic features of rational expectations and what impact the past YoY CPI inflation rate, the CNB’s inflation forecast and the CNB’s inflation target have on their expectations. …”

Algorithm based on 2‐bit adaptive delta modulation and fractional linear prediction for Gaussian source coding by Zoran Peric, Bojan Denic, Vladimir Despotovic

“…The study focusses on two major areas: realization of a 2‐bit adaptive quantizer based on Q‐function approximation that significantly facilitates quantizer design; and implementation of a recently introduced FLP approach with the memory of two samples, which replaces the first‐order linear prediction used in standard ADM algorithms and enables improved performance without increasing transmission costs. It furthermore represents the first implementation of FLP in signal encoding, therefore confirming its applicability in a real signal‐processing scenario. …”
