Magnetoencephalography and electroencephalography (M/EEG) seed-based connectivity analysis typically requires regions of interest (ROI)-based extraction of measures. M/EEG ROI-derived source activity can be treated in different ways. For instance, it is possible to average each ROI's time series prior to calculating connectivity measures. Alternatively one can compute connectivity maps for each element of the ROI, prior to dimensionality reduction to obtain a single map. The impact of these different strategies on connectivity estimation is still unclear.

Background: The oral food challenge test (OFC) represents the gold standard for the diagnosis of food allergy (FA). It is also necessary for the safe reintroduction of the allergen into the diet of the patient. However, it is burdened with serious side effects.

This manuscript relates to the exploiting of the abstract calculus pattern (ACP) for the (numerical) solution of ordinary differential equation (ODEs) systems, which are ubiquitous mathematical formulations of many physical (dynamical) phenomena. We present FOODIE, a software suite aimed to numerically solve ODE problems by means of a clear, concise, and efficient abstract interface.

Graphical models are well-known mathematical objects for describing conditional dependency relationships between random variables of a complex system. Gaussian graphical models refer to the case of multivariate Gaussian variable for which the graphical model is encoded through the support of corresponding inverse covariance (precision) matrix. We consider a problem of estimating multiple Gaussian graphical models from high- dimensional data sets under the assumption that they share the same conditional independence structure. However, the individual correlation matrices can differ.

Preservation of the angle of reflection when an internal gravity wave hits a sloping boundary generates a focusing mechanism if the angle between the direction of propagation of the incident wave and the horizontal is close to the slope inclination (near-critical reflection). This paper provides an explicit description of the leading approximation of the unique Leray solution to the near-critical reflection of internal waves from a slope in the form of a beam wave.

We prove the strong ill-posedness of the two-dimensional Boussinesq system in vorticity form in L8pR2q without boundary, building upon the method that Shikh Khalil & Elgindi arXiv:2207.04556v1 developed for scalar equations. We provide examples of initial data with vorticity and density gradient of small L8pR2q size, for which the horizontal density gradient has a strong L8pR2q-norm inflation in infinitesimal time, while the vorticity and the vertical density gradient remain bounded.

Real-world facility planning problems often require to tackle simultaneously network connectivity and zonal requirements, in order to guarantee an equitable provision of services and an efficient flow of goods, people and information among the facilities. Nonetheless, such challenges have not been addressed jointly so far. In this paper we explore the introduction of advanced network connectivity features and spatial-related requirements within Covering Location Problems.

Starting from 2019, the Italian Space Agency (ASI) is supporting dedicated projects for the development of new methods, tools and competences for the interpretation and the exploitation of the future measurements of the FORUM (Far-infrared Outgoing Radiation Understanding and Monitoring) experiment. FORUM will be the ninth Earth Explorer mission of the European Space Agency, scheduled for launch on a polar orbiting satellite in 2027.
