Multi‐Habitat Landscape Promotes Microbial Diversity: Insights from the Traditional Agricultural Heritage and the Global Trend

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The 2500‐year‐old Mulberry‐dyke and Fish‐pond agricultural heritage system reveals how interconnected habitats foster microbial diversity. Multi‐habitat landscapes enhance microbial diversity through cross‐habitat dispersal and adaptive trait convergence. Globally, regions with diverse habitats support a greater diversity of soil microbiomes.

The Potential of Cognitive‐Inspired Neural Network Modeling Framework for Computer Vision

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In article number 202507730, Guorun Li, Lei Liu, Yuefeng Du, and co‐workers present a cognitive modeling framework (CMF) to bridge the ‘representation gap’ and ‘conceptual gap’ between cognitive theory and vision deep neural networks (VDNNs). The research findings provide new insights and solid theoretical support for VDNN modeling inspired by ...
