The objective of this study is to find an effective stimulation and measurement strategy to improve distinguishability for head EIT. To better understand the relationship between distinguishability and various strategies (stimulation/measurement patterns) for a set of electrodes, we evaluated a realistic head model and a range of common strategies.

In this manuscript we present calculations that consider the propagation of a squeezed vacuum signal field through a resonant atomic medium under electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). We show that squeezing is degraded due to four-wave mixing processes at high optical depth of the atomic medium. We also present some preliminary results for degenerate Zeeman EIT resonances.

In recent years there has been widespread concern in the scientific community over a reproducibility crisis. Among the major causes that have been identified is statistical: In many scientific research the statistical analysis (including data preparation) suffers from a lack of transparency and methodological problems, major obstructions to reproducibility. The revisit package aims toward remed...

A number of studies have emphasized that governance has many components, including accountability, autonomy, role clarity, policy coherence (especially as related to objectives), stakeholder participation/ engagement, professionalism (capacity), and transparency. This study identifies seven elements affecting infrastructure performance: institutions, interests (stakeholders), information, incen...

This thesis examines the factors that influence perceptions of judicial corruption. A statistical analysis using data from such sources as Transparency International, the World Bank, and Freedom House demonstrates that aspects of accountability (the ability to remove judges) and transparency (freedom of the press) are only weakly related to perceptions of judicial corruption. A systematic count...

Full, on-time, and with Quality disclosure of financial information can lead to the transparency of such information and decreases information asymmetry. Among the published information of firms, earnings are of priority importance attended by many users; therefore, the issue of the transparency of accounting earnings is of high importance. The aim of this study is investigating the accounting ...

WHEREAS CHAPTER 2 OF THIS BOOK analysed directions and varieties of transparency, this chapter addresses a single question. Is transparency to be valued intrinsically or instrumentally, or both? Put differently, is transparency a core concern or is it a building block for other valued objects sought by public policy? There is not necessarily a single answer to this question, but posing it will ...
