Comment on 'Lack of evidence for associative learning in pea plants'
In 2016 we reported evidence for associative learning in plants (Gagliano et al., 2016). In view of the far-reaching implications of this find...
Comment on “Unique in the shopping mall: On the reidentifiability of credit card metadata”
De Montjoye et al . (Reports, 30 January 2015, p. 536) claimed that most individuals can be reidentified from a deidentified transaction datab...
Community effects allow bioelectrical reprogramming of cell membrane potentials in multicellular aggregates: Model simulations
Bioelectrical patterns are established by spatiotemporal correlations of cell membrane potentials at the multicellular level, being crucial to...
Comparing the quantum switch and its simulations with energetically constrained operations
Quantum mechanics allows processes to be superposed, leading to a genuinely quantum lack of causal structure. For example, the process known a...
Competency in Navigating Arbitrary Spaces as an Invariant for Analyzing Cognition in Diverse Embodiments
One of the most salient features of life is its capacity to handle novelty and namely to thrive and adapt to new circumstances and changes in ...
Complexity-calibrated Benchmarks for Machine Learning Reveal When Prediction Algorithms Succeed and Mislead

Recurrent neural networks are used to forecast time series in finance, climate, language, and from many other domains. Reservoir computers are a particularly easily trainable form of recurrent neural network. Recently, a “next-generation” reservoir computer was introduced in which the memory trace involves only a finite number of previous symbols. The inherent limitations of finite-past memory traces are explored in this proposal. 

Computing Integrated Information (Φ) in Discrete Dynamical Systems with Multi-Valued Elements
Integrated information theory (IIT) provides a mathematical framework to characterize the cause-effect structure of a physical system and its ...
Computing the Integrated Information of a Quantum Mechanism
Originally conceived as a theory of consciousness, integrated information theory (IIT) provides a theoretical framework intended to characteri...
Conceptualisation and psychometric evaluation of positive psychological outcome measures used in adolescents and young adults living with HIV: a mixed scoping and systematic review protocol
Sub-Saharan Africa bears the greatest burden of HIV. Concomitant mental disorders are common, necessitating the integration of mental healthca...
Conflict Handling in Ghanaian In-law Relationships: Implications for Face Concerns
We interviewed 34 married individuals between the ages of 32 and 69 in Southern Ghana regarding conflict handling strategies they adopt in the...
Consciousness and the fallacy of misplaced objectivity
Objective correlates-behavioral, functional, and neural-provide essential tools for the scientific study of consciousness. But reliance on the...
Constructing graphs from genetic encodings
Abstract Our understanding of real-world connected systems has benefited from studying their evolution, from random wirings and rewirings to g...
Contributory Broadcast Encryption with Efficient Encryption and Short Ciphertexts
Broadcast encryption (BE) schemes allow a sender to securely broadcast to any subset of members but require a trusted party to distribute decr...
Cooperation and decision time
We review two fundamentally different ways that decision time is related to cooperation. First, studies have experimentally manipulated decisi...
Cooperative conservation: Seven ways to save the world
Abstract The world faces serious environmental problems. To solve them we must work together. Fortunately, humans are a very cooperative speci...
Correcting instructive electric potential patterns in multicellular systems: External actions and endogenous processes
Transmembrane electrical potential differences in cells modulate the spatio-temporal distribution of signaling ions and molecules that are ins...
Correction to: Endless forms most beautiful 2.0: teleonomy and the bioengineering of chimaeric and synthetic organisms
This is a correction to: Wesley P Clawson, Michael Levin, Endless forms most beautiful...
Correspondence in parents' and children's concepts of god: Investigating the role of parental values, religious practices and executive functioning
This study examined the extent to which children's concepts of God correspond with their parents' concepts of God. It also examined how parent...
Covid-19 as an opportunity to teach epistemic insight: findings from exploratory workshops on Covid-19 and science with students aged 15–17 in England
The contributions of science and scientists to combatting Covid-19 have been at the forefront of media attention throughout 2020 and early 202...
Cultivating virtue in postgraduates: An empirical study of the Oxford Global Leadership Initiative
