Nucleon decay as a probe of flavor symmetry: the case of fake unification by Masahiro Ibe, Satoshi Shirai, Keiichi Watanabe

“…By introducing flavor symmetry through the FN mechanism, the model addresses the flavor puzzle of quark and lepton mass hierarchies and mixing patterns. Our analysis demonstrates that nucleon decay rates and branching fractions in the fake GUT are sensitive to flavor symmetry, providing a means to distinguish it from conventional GUT predictions. …”

Coastal aquifers key contributors to ocean chemistry through solute fluxes by Yael Kiro

“…Moreover, they are dynamically linked to sea-level changes: falling sea levels enhance SGD-driven solute inputs, whereas rising sea levels suppress them. These patterns suggest that SGD fluxes may regulate long-term climate trends, including rates of global cooling or warming.…”

Optimizing dance motion reconstruction using a two-dimensional matrix approach with hybrid genetic and fuzzy logic differential evolution by Lin Wang, Yutong Liu, Yucong Geng, Mohammad Khishe

“…We develop the Two-Dimensional Matrix-Calculation (TDMC) model, combined with the Hybrid Genetic Algorithm with Fuzzy Logic Differential Evolution (HGA-FLDE), which aims to optimize the reconstruction of complex dance movements by leveraging Riemannian geometry and adaptive optimization for biomechanical nonlinear motion patterns and missing joint data. Furthermore, accuracy is achieved through other approaches, such as the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Support Vector Regression (SVR), Kinect Sensors (KS), and Evolved Deep Gated Recurrent Unit (EDGRU) models, which were all thoroughly tested against one another. …”
