A Fully Soft Sensing Suit With Optimal Sensor Placement for Real‐Time Motion Tracking

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A fully soft, skin‐conformable sensing suit integrating stretchable sensors, liquid metal wiring, and soft electrodes was developed using direct ink writing, with sensor placement optimized through an automated algorithmic pipeline. This system enables accurate and unobtrusive real‐time motion tracking, providing a scalable, material‐based solution to ...

GraphNeuralCloth: A Graph‐Neural‐Network‐Based Framework for Non‐Skinning Cloth Simulation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a cloth motion capture system and a point‐cloud‐to‐mesh processing method to support the prediction of real‐world fabric deformation. GraphNeuralCloth, a graph neural‐network (GNN)‐based framework is also proposed to estimate the cloth morphology change in real time.

Dimorphic enantiostyly and its function for pollination by carpenter bees in a pollen‐rewarding Caribbean bloodwort

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Flowers that present their anthers and stigma in close proximity can achieve precise animal‐mediated pollen transfer, but risk self‐pollination. One evolutionary solution is reciprocal herkogamy. Reciprocity of anther and style positions among different plants (i.e., a genetic dimorphism) is common in distylous plants, but very rare in

Phylogenomics, ecomorphological evolution, and historical biogeography in Deuterocohnia (Bromeliaceae: Pitcairnioideae)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Species of Deuterocohnia (17 spp.) show extraordinary variation in elevation (0–3900 m a.s.l.) and growth forms, and many have narrow geographic distributions in the west‐central Andes and the Peru‐Chile coast. Previous research using few plastid and nuclear loci failed to produce well‐resolved or supported phylogenies.
