ADAPT: An Autonomous Forklift for Construction Site Operation

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient material logistics are critical in controlling costs and schedules in the construction industry. However, manual material handling remains prone to inefficiencies, delays, and safety risks. Autonomous forklifts offer a solution to streamline on‐site logistics, reducing reliance on human operators and mitigating labor shortages.

Hjorth Reliability Analysis and Its Applications Under Newly Adaptive Progressively First-Failure Censoring Plan

Axioms
This paper investigates classical and Bayesian inferences for the parameters and reliability metrics of the Hjorth distribution using a new censoring mechanism called the adaptive progressive first-failure censoring scheme.

Deciphering Molecular Charge Anisotropy: The Case of Antibody Solutions

Small, EarlyView.
Molecular charge anisotropy emerges as a key determinant of antibody solution behavior. A multiscale framework combining electrostatic mapping, coarse‐grained simulations, and machine‐learning‐assisted optimization identifies charge patterns that reproduce experimental structure factors and predict collective properties across concentration, revealing ...

DQN‐Guided Subset‐Induced OCSVM Kernel Approximation for Imbalanced Anomaly Detection

IEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, EarlyView.
Anomaly detection under limited normal data remains a fundamental challenge due to severe class imbalance and scarcity of anomalies. We propose a novel framework that reformulates support vector selection in One‐Class SVM as a sequential decision‐making problem.

Take Me Home, Country Roads: Choosing Autonomous EVs Over Personal Aviation

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the potential long‐run effects of autonomous and electric vehicles, and a carbon tax, on personal domestic aviation demand in Australia. We estimate a discrete choice disutility model with two travel modes—car and air—using Australian National Visitor Survey data and Bayesian priors. We use multiplicative Fréchet errors,

Availability of a Keystone Plant Resource Reduces Niche Overlap and Drives Distinct Species‐Specific Changes in Niche Breadth Among Small Rodents

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We investigated how three rodent species respond to the seasonal availability of Araucaria angustifolia seeds. While Oligoryzomys spp. increased seed consumption and abundance during seed production, the more insectivorous Akodon paranaensis maintained a broader diet.

How Do Forward‐Looking Estimates of Credit Losses Affect the Judgments of Financial Statement Users? Comment les estimations prospectives des pertes sur créances influencent‐elles les jugements des utilisateurs des états financiers?

Contemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Financial accounting standard setters recently changed the accounting for estimates involving credit risk. The change shifted the accounting from an incurred‐loss model (ILM), which is based on credit‐risk conditions that exist at the time of the estimate, to a model based on expected credit losses over the life of the asset in question (ELM),

Handling mean–variance scaling in intraspecific trait variability and implications for trait–environment analyses

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Trait‐based ecology increasingly relies on measures of intraspecific trait variability to estimate how trait diversity within species varies across species and environmental gradients. Yet variance and related metrics are often interpreted without considering their intrinsic dependence on the mean, as described by the empirical Taylor's power ...

Why Engage Communities in Biomedical Research?

Bioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While community engagement in biomedical research is widely lauded, and many reasons to engage communities have been adduced, it is unclear whether all these reasons are equally important, and, if not, which are most important. Here, I argue that, outside of rare circumstances, community engagement should not be understood as seeking ...
