This study investigates the integration of synthetic imagery, created with diffusion‐based models, to supplement limited training data and improve muskox (Ovibos moschatus) detection in zero‐shot (ZS) and few‐shot (FS) settings. ZS models detected more than 80% of muskoxen in real images, confirming the potential of synthetic data as a substitute for ...

Study on atomization characteristics of nozzles in artificial snow making process
The increasing global warming and rapid growth of the ski industry have raised higher demands for artificial snowmaking technology and snow quality, with the quality of artificial snowmaking closely linked to the atomization characteristics of snowmaking

Accounting for animal movement during aerial imaging surveys
Animals are not stationary during aerial surveys; if their movements are related to the movement of the aerial platform, then bias can be introduced into subsequent population count estimates. We sought to establish a framework for assessing the impacts of animal movement on count error and platform bias by comparing aggregated counts and relative ...

Abstract The acoustic emission (AE) technique has proven to be an effective method for detecting individual wire breaks in prestressed concrete structures affected by stress corrosion cracking (SCC). However, despite its widespread application, the quantitative assessment of AE monitoring reliability and optimal sensor placement remains unresolved ...

Alternate Methods for the Artificial Release of Snow Avalanches [PDF]
Abstract A series of devices have been developed and tested which are designed to initiate the release of snow avalanches by mechanically disturbing or altering the snow cover. These serve as substitutes for the conventional use of high explosives and artillery projectiles.

Types of Struggles in Disrupted Interaction: A Case of Hard‐of‐Hearing Employees
Everyone experiences disrupted interactions in their everyday life. However, research indicates that people with functional impairments are particularly exposed to patterns of interactional inequality at work. Despite this, little is known about the specific disrupted interactions in everyday life and the various types of interactional struggles this ...

Study on basic material properties of artificial snow
For buildings and constructions made by snow, like for example the ICEHOTEL in Jukkasjärvi, generally artificial snow is used. Both for safety reasons and for design purposes it is hence of importance to understand the material behaviour of artificial ...
