Women's influence on the private life of society in Late Antiquity according to Saint Augustine by E.V. Anokhina

“…Interestingly, it was natural that these traditions became intertwined in the mindset of a person. The gender-marked expressions used by Saint Augustine were studied, and the conclusion was made that he appears to more stick to the ancient ideas about femininity/masculinity, including the belief that women, who were perceived as physically and emotionally imperfect, must be placed under the control of men, i.e., they should obey stronger persons. …”

The effects of race, gender, and alcohol cues on anger perception in crowds by Elizabeth Summerell, Liberty Shuttleworth, Carmen Lin, Thomas F. Denson

“…Accurately assessing anger in crowds can be difficult, and people tend to overestimate the average intensity of a crowd’s anger relative to an individual’s anger (i.e. the crowd emotion amplification effect).Method Across three experiments, we investigated the emotion amplification effect in crowds (versus individuals) displaying angry facial expressions. We also investigated the influence of gender, race, and alcohol cues as influences on this effect.Results In two of the three experiments, we replicated the emotion amplification effect and found an interaction with race. …”

A multi-band spectrum sensing method based on sticky hidden Markov model by Zhongjie JIA, Ming JIN, Xiaoqun SONG

“…Existing multi-band spectrum sensing methods often use the sparsity of broadband spectrum.However, high spectrum occupancy rate of primary users degrades their performance severely.To address this issue, a novel multi-band spectrum sensing method was proposed by exploiting the state correlation among adjacent frequency bands.Firstly, a sticky hidden Markov model (SHMM) was established by regarding the multi-band states and measured energies as hidden and observed variables.In the SHMM, a sticky factor was introduced to represent the state correlation among adjacent frequency bands.Secondly, iterative expressions for the parameters of SHMM were derived.Finally, multi-band spectrum sensing was implemented by obtaining the posterior mean of observations from every frequency bands.Simulation results show that the proposed method outperforms existing methods, and when the false alarm probability is 0.1, the average frequency band occupancy rate is 50%, and the average signal-to-noise ratio is -12 dB, the detection probability can reach close to 0.99, which is about 30% higher than the detection probability of other methods.In addition, the proposed method had a faster convergence rate than existing methods and therefore has lower computational complexity.…”
