Citizen science deepens the ecological and climatic dimensions of mosquito surveillance

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
As mosquito‐borne diseases continue to expand worldwide, integrating citizen science into vector surveillance presents untapped potential. This study compares ecological models of Aedes albopictus, an invasive mosquito and global vector of dengue and other arboviruses, in Spain (2020–2022), using two contrasting data sources: traditional traps and ...

Information Design for Early‐Stage Dose‐Finding Trials

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To enhance enrollment rates in early‐stage dose‐finding clinical trials, we propose an information design approach, where the clinical investigator (CI) commits to an information releasing mechanism (IRM) based on the treatment's uncertain efficacy and toxicity to encourage patients to participate in the trial.

Parameter estimation and tracking algorithm for resolvable group targets based on GLMB filter and RLS algorithm

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2022
Current resolvable group targets tracking algorithms can only track a small number of group targets assuming the standard deviation vectors (SDVs) are known. Based on generalized labeled multi-Bernoulli filter, this paper first proposes a serial tracking

Search and Passage Are Decoupled for Migrating Trout Kelts at Multi‐Exit Dam

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Longitudinal and lateral river connectivity have been drastically reduced over time, with hydropower development as a major driver of fragmentation. While fishways are widely implemented to support upstream migration, downstream passage remains a major challenge.
