Managing uncertainty in decision‐making for conservation science

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 6, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Science‐based decision‐making is the ideal. However, scientific knowledge is incomplete, and sometimes wrong. Responsible science‐based policy, planning, and action must exploit knowledge while managing uncertainty. I considered the info‐gap method to manage deep uncertainty surrounding knowledge that is used for decision‐making in ...

Computerized nailfold video‐capillaroscopy in type 2 diabetes: A cross‐sectional study on 102 outpatients 计算机化甲襞视频毛细血管镜在2型糖尿病中的运用: 对102例门诊患者的横断面研究

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes, Volume 15, Issue 10, Page 890-899, October 2023., 2023
Highlights Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are prone to developing chronic diabetes‐related complications at the microvascular and macrovascular levels. The Computerized Nailfold Video‐Capillaroscopy (CNVC) provides specific information on both quantitative and qualitative characteristics of microvasculature at the level of fingers.

Histopathological characterisation of trunk‐dominant canine pemphigus foliaceus, and comparison with classic facial and insecticide‐triggered forms

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 425-440, October 2023., 2023
Background – While the clinical features were described recently, the histopathological characterisation of trunk‐dominant canine pemphigus foliaceus (PF) is lacking, and whether it differs from classic facial or insecticide‐triggered PF is unknown. Hypothesis/Objectives – This study describes the histopathological findings of trunk‐dominant PF, and ...

Corrosion and passive film characteristics of 3D‐printed NiTi shape memory alloys in artificial saliva

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 42, Issue 9, Page 3114-3129, September 2023., 2023
Graphic Abstract Abstract Electrochemical tests and surface analysis were applied to study the corrosion behavior and passive film characteristics of three‐dimensional‐printed NiTi shape memory alloys fabricated by laser‐powder bed fusion (L‐PBF) in artificial saliva at 37 °C. The passivity of L‐PBF NiTi shows to be influenced by the process parameters

Effects of season length and uniparental care efficacy on the evolution of parental care

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 92, Issue 9, Page 1719-1729, September 2023., 2023
This theoretical study shows that individual (within‐sex) variation of parental care strategies readily evolves, leading to the coexistence of different care patterns in the same population. Depending on season length and uniparental care efficacy, alternative equilibria often exist, explaining variation across populations and the evolutionary lability

miaSim: an R/Bioconductor package to easily simulate microbial community dynamics

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 8, Page 1967-1980, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Microbiomes never stop changing. Their compositions and functions are shaped by the complex interplay of intrinsic and extrinsic drivers, such as growth and migration rates, species interactions, available nutrients and environmental conditions.

An Improved Multi‐Task Pointwise Network for Segmentation of Building Roofs in Airborne Laser Scanning Point Clouds

open access: yesThe Photogrammetric Record, Volume 37, Issue 179, Page 260-284, September 2022., 2022
Zhang et al. propose an improved multi‐task pointwise network to simultaneously segment instances (that is, individual roof planes) and semantics (that is, groups of roof planes with similar geometric shapes) in point clouds. A new roof data‐set (called RoofNTNU) is established by taking standard airborne laser scanning (ALS) point clouds as training ...

Constructing of blending trigonometric Bézier-like curve(基于三角Bézier-like的过渡曲线构造)

open access: yesZhejiang Daxue xuebao. Lixue ban, 2013
在形状调配过程中,过渡曲线的连续性往往是很难保证的.首先给出三角Bézier-like曲线的定义,然后从过渡曲线满足一定拟连续性的角度出发,利用三角Bézier-like曲线的端点性质,研究形状参数曲线的参数拟连续特征保持问题.给出了线性混合过程中一阶和二阶参数拟连续保持条件,从而得出一般的三角Bézier-like曲线在形状调配中参数拟连续的保持方法.同时构造出2种过渡曲线(C-形状和S-形状)的使用方法.在工程设计中,该方法对机器人的行走、道路的设计和某些造型的软件设计具有一定的指导意义.

Smooth blending of rational trigonometric Bézier curves and surfaces(有理三角Bézier曲线曲面光滑融合的构造)

open access: yesZhejiang Daxue xuebao. Lixue ban, 2016
为了使自由曲线曲面在较为简单的条件下能够达到相对高阶的光滑拼接,并在不改变控制顶点的情况下自由调整曲线曲面的形状,构造了含多个形状参数的有理三角函数.基于该组基函数,定义了含多个形状参数的有理三角曲线曲面,并讨论了曲线曲面的光滑拼接条件.根据拼接条件,分别定义了由含多个形状参数的有理三角曲线曲面构成的分段组合曲线、分片组合曲面.这种新的曲线曲面能够自动保证组合曲线、曲面的连续性.数值实例的结果显示了该方法的有效性.
