An Ontology-Based Analysis of Health Disorders Derived from Stress-Evoked Peripheral Immune Responses

URL https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.09.14.25335729v1.full.pdf Stage Model Drift Paradigm framing The paper operates within the established psychoneuroimmunology paradigm, which posits that chronic stress triggers peripheral immune responses and low-grade inflammation, contributing to the pathogenesis of various diseases. The research addresses the lack of a formal structure for understanding the specific immunological pathways that link stress to a diverse

Who is Responsible When AI Fails? Mapping Causes, Entities, and Consequences of AI Privacy and Ethical Incidents

URL https://arxiv.org/pdf/2504.01029.pdf Stage Model Drift Paradigm framing The dominant paradigm in AI ethics and governance posits that the risks and harms of AI systems can be managed through structured frameworks, principles, and taxonomies that guide policy and practice. This paradigm assumes that by identifying, classifying, and understanding AI failures, practitioners and policymakers can develop effective

Metal Polluted White Dwarfs with 21 μm IR excesses from JWST/MIRI: Planets or Dust?

URL https://arxiv.org/pdf/2506.21224.pdf Stage Normal Science / Model Drift Paradigm framing The current paradigm is that metal pollution in white dwarfs arises from the accretion of planetary debris. This is supported by spectroscopic observations and abundance patterns consistent with rocky material. The paradigm includes theoretical models of tidal disruption events and planetary system evolution post-main sequence.

Ecosystems as adaptive living circuits

URL https://arxiv.org/pdf/2506.22017.pdf Stage Model Drift Paradigm framing The current paradigm focuses on the non-equilibrium nature of biological systems, where the coupling to external energy sources is a fixed parameter. This preprint challenges this assumption by highlighting that energy dissipation is an adaptive, dynamic variable in living systems. Highlights This preprint identifies a limitation in existing

MARS: Processing-In-Memory Acceleration of Raw Signal Genome Analysis Inside the Storage Subsystem

URL https://arxiv.org/pdf/2506.10931.pdf Stage Model Drift Paradigm framing The preprint operates within the established paradigm of genome analysis, which traditionally involves basecalling followed by read mapping. However, it addresses the limitations of this paradigm by proposing in-storage processing of raw signals, representing a departure from the conventional approach of relying on CPU/GPU-based acceleration of individual steps

Laser Stabilised Ionising Transitions

URL https://arxiv.org/pdf/2506.10183.pdf Stage Model Drift Paradigm framing The dominant paradigm is the Fano model of bound-to-continuum transitions and resonant fluorescence. The preprint introduces a drift by demonstrating the emergence of a novel metastable state under resonant pumping. Highlights The preprint operates within the established paradigm of Fano's theory of bound-to-continuum transitions and utilizes resonant fluorescence
