In this study, involving 585 youth sport coaches (Mage = 35.76), the authors investigated whether coaches who perceive their environment to be highly evaluative would report acting in a more controlling or pressuring way. In a subsample (n = 211, Mage = 38.14), they examined the explanatory role of coaches’ experiences of psychological need frustration in this relation. They also considered whether years of coaching experience would serve as a buffer against the adverse effects of an evaluative context.

In a multi-goal reinforcement learning environment, an agent learns a policy to perform tasks with multiple goals from experiences gained through exploration. In environments with sparse binary rewards, the replay buffer contains few successful experiences, posing a challenge for sampling efficiency. To address this, Hindsight Experience Replay (HER) generates successful experiences, named hindsight experiences, from unsuccessful ones. However, uniform sampling of experiences for the process of HER can lead to inefficient scenarios of generating hindsight experience. In this paper, a novel met

Abstract:
Prioritized experience replay (PER) is an important technique in deep reinforcement learning (DRL). It improves the sampling efficiency of data in various DRL algorithms and achieves great performance. PER uses temporal difference error (TD-error) to measure the value of experiences and adjusts the sampling probability of experiences. Although PER can sample valuable experiences according to the TD-error, freshness is also an important character of experiences. It implicitly reflects the potential value of experiences. Fresh experiences are produced by virtue of the current networks and they a

It argues that Kant adopts Buffon’s twofold conception of natural history, which consists of a general theory of nature and a particular account of natural products. Yet in contrast to Buffon, who placed the two parts of natural history on equal epistemic footing, Kant’s physical geography operates as a second, pragmatic level of inquiry. On the higher, formal level, natural history provides a physical account of time and space as an expanding causal sequence. On the lower, pragmat

Abstract From its inception, science has always taken the mantle of universality. “Any subject is one,” proclaimed Buffon, “and no matter how vast, it can be condensed in a single discourse.” Science’s craving for unity acts as a most efficient stimulus to expand our knowledge. Indeed, it has led to increasingly spectacular successes. Yet, modern science seems to have exploded into a multitude of highly specialized areas and distinct disciplines that may at times be interconnected, but that by and large ignore one another.

For many Black women, their relationship with their physique is complicated and nuanced by narratives of race, gender, and their intersection. Given this reality, positive embodiment is a hard-won battle for those Black women who achieve it, and their efforts are repeatedly challenged by mainstream cultural narratives that view their bodies as deviant and lacking value. The chapter examines Black women’s experience of embodiment through the lens of intersectionality theory. Given the nature of experiences such as racialized sexual harassment, examining intersecting identities such as Black wom

Abstract:
Abstract Coordinated phosphate programs have been used for many years to control pH in systems with high purity make-up and feedwater. The primary function of this program is to establish a buffer system in such a manner that free caustic concentration is minimized at heat transfer surfaces in the boiler. The iron water reaction is discussed as it relates to caustic corrosion. The basic concepts of coordinated phosphate and congruent phosphate are reviewed. Case studies are presented which highlight existing problems with coordinated phosphate programs. Alkalinity control using the 2P-M techni

Abstract:
Abstract The hardness values of weldments of supermartensitic stainless steels will exceed generally acceptable limits for “sour service” and qualification testing with simulation of the actual conditions has to be done. Use of international guidelines, e.g. the EFC-17 document, has shown that there is a need to specify more details for the testing. The high temperature oxidation during welding will weaken the pitting resistance for SMSS exposed to slightly sour environment. This will influence the initiation of pitting corrosion and thus the resistance to SSC. The buffer strength in a simulat

Abstract:
Abstract High strength steels with yield strength greater than 965 MPa (140 ksi) typically used as oil country tubular goods (OCTG) have very limited use in marginally sour wells. Currently, NACE(1) MR0175 / ISO(2)15156-21 provides caution on the use of these materials even in the non-sour Region 0. However, high pressure high temperature (HPHT) wells are requiring these grades to meet design requirements. Consequently, there is an increasing need to define the operating envelope for these materials. To establish the operating envelope, sulfide stress cracking (SSC) tests were performed at var

Abstract The formation brine in a giant carbonate reservoir had high total dissolved solids (more than 200,000 mg/L) and high calcium ion concentration (more than 25,000 mg/L). In an effort to assess compatibility with seawater and formation of sulfate scale, two types of field tests were conducted: 1) Seawater was directly pumped down the tubing-casing annulus into three wells (A, B and C) where it was commingled with the produced water in the wellbore, and 2) seawater was injected into a well 1,000 feet from a producer (D).

Abstract:
Mnih’s seminal deep reinforcement learning paper that applied a Deep Q-network to Atari video games demonstrated the importance of a replay buffer and a target network. Though the pair were required for convergence, the use of the replay buffer came at a significant computational cost. With each new sample generated by the system, the targets in the mini batch buffer were continually recomputed. We propose an alternative that eliminates the target recomputation called TAO-DQN (Target Accelerated Optimization-DQN). Our approach focuses on a new replay buffer algorithm that lowers the computatio

In a premium car there are a significant number of features which inhibits the car to go into “deep sleep” and hence remains on a “stand-by” mode of operation. D

Social assistance has been a vital part of the response to the Covid-19 pandemic to buffer against the worst of its socioeconomic consequences. But it is not clear whether these measures were inclusive of the most marginalised individuals or reached the furthest behind first. This review of experiences across low- and middle-income countries shows that many vulnerable groups received support, including those who were previously excluded. However, experiences differ across countries, contexts, and populations. By identifying the factors that contributed to in- or exclusion, we can learn importa

Abstract:
Violence has a striking gender pattern. Men are more likely to be attacked by a stranger, while women experience violence mostly from their partners. This paper estimates the costs of violence against women in terms of intangible outcomes, such as women's reproductive health, labor supply, and the welfare of their children. The study uses a sample of nearly 83,000 women in seven countries from all income groups and all sub-regions in Latin American and the Caribbean. The sample, consisting of 26.3 million women between the ages of 15 and 49, strengthens the external validity of the results. Th

Social assistance has proven a vital component of the response to the unprecedented global crisis of Covid-19. Almost all countries across the world implemented some form of social assistance to provide a buffer against the pandemic’s socioeconomic consequences. Vulnerable populations received more extensive support, and groups previously excluded were covered by new or expanded measures. Yet limited information is available about the extent to which social assistance in response to Covid-19 was inclusive of those most marginalised, and whether interventions reached ‘the furthest behind first’
