A Novel Deliberative Multicriteria Evaluation Approach To Ecosystem Service Valuation, Georgia Mayrommati, Mark E. Borsuk, Richard B. Howarth Jan 3016

A Novel Deliberative Multicriteria Evaluation Approach To Ecosystem Service Valuation, Georgia Mayrommati, Mark E. Borsuk, Richard B. Howarth

New Hampshire EPSCoR

Although efforts to address ecosystem services in decision making have advanced considerably in recent years, there remain challenges related to valuation. In particular, conventional economic approaches have been criticized for their inability to capture the collective nature of ecosystem services, for their emphasis on monetary metrics, and the difficulty of assessing the value of ecosystem services to future generations. We present a deliberative multicriteria evaluation (DMCE) method that combines the advantages of multicriteria decision analysis with a deliberation process that allows citizens and scientists to exchange knowledge and evaluate ecosystem services in a social context. Compared with previous applications we …


Metarag: Identifying Website Owner Using Meta-Path-Guided Dynamic Graph Retrieval-Augmented Generation, Cheng Tu, Yunshan Ma, Bingyang Guo, Qianyu Li, Yang Li, Min Zhang, Fan Shi, Xiang Wang Jul 2028

Metarag: Identifying Website Owner Using Meta-Path-Guided Dynamic Graph Retrieval-Augmented Generation, Cheng Tu, Yunshan Ma, Bingyang Guo, Qianyu Li, Yang Li, Min Zhang, Fan Shi, Xiang Wang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Website owner identification aims to link websites to their real-world owners, which is crucial for credibility assessment and information provenance in information retrieval and vital for applications in cybersecurity, Internet governance, and digital regulation. Existing approaches for website owner identification primarily rely on querying infrastructure registration records or analyzing webpage content. However, these methods often fail due to incomplete or outdated registration records and sparse webpage content. We observe that inter-website relationships, derived from shared infrastructure data such as primary domains, IP blocks, and geolocations, can provide valuable but underutilized ownership cues. To exploit this insight, we propose MetaRAG, a …


Stprompt++: Prompting Vision-Language Models For Weakly Supervised Video Anomaly Detection And Fine-Grained Localization, Peng Wu, Chengyu Pan, Guansong Pang, Xiangteng He, Zhiwei Yang, Peng Wang, Yanning Zhang Jul 2028

Stprompt++: Prompting Vision-Language Models For Weakly Supervised Video Anomaly Detection And Fine-Grained Localization, Peng Wu, Chengyu Pan, Guansong Pang, Xiangteng He, Zhiwei Yang, Peng Wang, Yanning Zhang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Traditional weakly supervised video anomaly detection (WSVAD) tasks typically rely on coarse-grained frame-level labels for training. Although this approach reduces annotation costs, it results in weak semantic understanding and spatial localization capabilities due to the absence of fine-grained annotations, hindering precise pixel-level anomaly detection and localization. Thanks to the success of vision-language models (VLMs), e.g., CLIP, recent approaches leveraging large VLMs focus on exploiting their strong semantic understanding capabilities, but they typically feed only keyframes or short video segments into the models, without supplying sufficient prior contextual information (e.g., contextual frames around anomalies, zoomed-in anomaly regions, and detailed anomaly descriptions), …

Political Uncertainty And Firm-Level Stock Market Reactions In The United States, Nozomi Tanaka Apr 2027

Political Uncertainty And Firm-Level Stock Market Reactions In The United States, Nozomi Tanaka

Honors Program: Senior Projects (Public)

Political uncertainty has become an increasingly important feature of the global economy, with major geopolitical events often triggering rapid reactions in financial markets. This study examines how geopolitical shocks affect firm-level stock market performance in the United States. Using an event study framework, the analysis evaluates cumulative returns and stock return volatility for fourteen publicly traded firms across nine major geopolitical events between 2016 and 2022, including the Brexit referendum, the U.S.–China trade war, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Russia–Ukraine war.

The results indicate that most firms experienced negative abnormal returns around geopolitical events, suggesting that political uncertainty is generally …

Bridging The Gap Between Career Expectations Versus Labor Market Realities, Reinette P. Madrid, Grethel T. Ledesma, Ignatius Aryono Putranto, Jyro B. Triviño

Leadership and Strategy Faculty Publications

Most students lack awareness regarding the labor market outcomes for their chosen college majors. This study aims to answer what factors affect the career expectations of graduating students at Quezon City University and how these expectations align with the prevailing labor market situation. It employed descriptive, causal, and explanatory research using a sample of 108 respondents from fourth-year information technology students for the school year 2021 to 2022. Eight of the nine null hypotheses were rejected by employing multinomial logistic and linear regression. Student fixed effects and other labor market outcomes significantly predicted salary, estimated stability, and estimated skills in …

The key findings of this research show a broad range of academic status classification among …


Addressing The Challenges Of Cognitive Decline In The Physician Workforce, Sharona Hoffman Jan 2027

Addressing The Challenges Of Cognitive Decline In The Physician Workforce, Sharona Hoffman

Faculty Publications

This book chapter examines the growing challenge of cognitive decline among aging physicians and analyzes various approaches to addressing it. In 2024, twenty percent of working physicians were sixty-five or older, and evidence suggests that 12-14% of older clinicians have cognitive deficits that may affect job performance. The chapter evaluates two primary approaches to cognitive assessment: employer-initiated programs and programs operated by state medical boards. Employer "late career practitioner policies" (LCPP) that require older physicians to undergo testing are becoming increasingly popular among health care organizations. But they are vulnerable to challenge under disability and age discrimination laws, as evidenced …


Hearsay In High Definition: Body-Worn Cameras And The Future Of Intimate Partner Violence Prosecutions, Kenechukwu Okocha Jan 2027

Hearsay In High Definition: Body-Worn Cameras And The Future Of Intimate Partner Violence Prosecutions, Kenechukwu Okocha

Working Papers

Technological advances in documenting police encounters with the public have outpaced evidentiary hearsay rules. Specifically, the rapid adoption of body-worn cameras (BWCs), fueled by racial justice and police reform advocates, has produced previously unavailable, vivid, and timely recordings of IPV victims’ accounts of abuse. Unfortunately, state and federal rules governing hearsay often prevent juries from considering these out-of-court statements. Such restrictions carry particular force in IPV cases, where victims frequently recant or decline to testify at trial due to abuser manipulation or distrust of the criminal justice system.

Courts and legislatures have eased some evidentiary restrictions in IPV cases in …
