Evidence for a race model

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

Presenting a Model for Portfolio Risk Premium Assessment: Evidence from the Tehran Stock Exchange

This study aimed to present a model for portfolio risk premium assessment of companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange. In order to achieve this purpose, monthly data of 150 companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange during 2007-2017 was used. In this study, the predictive powers of FamaFrench three-factor model [11], Carhart four-factor model [1], Fama - French five-factor model [24], Brousseau...

Deciding on race: A diffusion model analysis of race-categorisation

It has long been known that a person's race can affect their decisions about people of another race; an observation that clearly taps into some deep societal issues. However, in order to behave differently in response to someone else's race, you must first categorise that person as other-race. The current study investigates the process of race-categorisation. Two groups of participants, Asian a...

A race model for singular olfactory receptor expression

In vertebrates, olfactory sensory neurons choose only one olfactory receptor to produce out of ~2000 possibilities. The mechanism for how this singular receptor expression occurs is unknown. Here we propose a mechanism that can stochastically select a single gene out of a large number of possibilities. In this model, receptor genes compete for a limited pool of transcription factors (TFs). The ...
