The areas of the brain that become active when formulating a lie, or “deceit patterns, are denoted on fMRI scans, yielding results that are more accurate than the polygraph. Using publicly available court records and fMRI results obtained from previous literature, the extent to wh...
Pneumonia, a fatal lung disease, is caused by infection of Streptococcus pneumoniae; it is detected by chest x-rays that reveal inflammation of the alveoli. However, the efficiency by which it is diagnosed can be improved through the use of artificial intelligence. Convolutional neural networks (CNN...
Understanding the complex correlations between labor force dynamics and economic trends requires a multifaceted approach, including data-driven policy measures considering demographic shifts and economic disparities. Analyzing various labor force segments, such as age, gender, skill level, and indus...
COVID-19 has proven detrimental to the economy and changed the nature of social interactions. Governments at every level have increasingly required the use of face masks in public spaces.

This project applies a new theory in the field of intergroup conflict known as “Gateway group theory,” which posits that to decrease conflict between two groups, a third group with specific characteristics that appeal to both sides needs to be identified, enabling them to act as a medium...
Abstract: South Korea has faced a steep fall in birth rates over the past few decades. Total fertility, defined as the average number of children a woman is expected to give birth to during her lifetime, stands among the lowest rates in the world. And it is far below the replacement rate level of 2....
