Biomass Native Structure Into Functional Carbon‐Based Catalysts for Fenton‐Like Reactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study indicates that eight biomasses with 2D flaky and 1D acicular structures influence surface O types, morphology, defects, N doping, sp2 C, and Co nanoparticles loading in three series of carbon, N‐doped carbon, and cobalt/graphitic carbon. This work identifies how these structural factors impact catalytic pathways, enhancing selective electron

PA-Tran: Learning to Estimate 3D Hand Pose with Partial Annotation

Sensors, 2023
This paper tackles a novel and challenging problem—3D hand pose estimation (HPE) from a single RGB image using partial annotation. Most HPE methods ignore the fact that the keypoints could be partially visible (e.g., under occlusions).

Tracking Battery Microstructural Degradation Through Directional Thermal Transport Signatures

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In lithium‐ion batteries, heat conduction varies between the through‐plane and in‐plane directions because of the cell's layered structure. Therefore, cell degradation influences thermal conductivity in each direction uniquely due to detailed microstructural and compositional changes.
