Canopy Averaged Chlorophyll Content Prediction of Pear Trees Using Convolutional Autoencoder on Hyperspectral Data

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2020
Chlorophyll content is one of the essential parameters to assess the growth process of the fruit trees. This present study developed a model for estimation of canopy averaged chlorophyll content (CACC) of pear trees using the convolutional autoencoder ...

Fault-Tolerance by Graceful Degradation for Car Platoons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The key advantage of autonomous car platoons are their short inter-vehicle distances that increase traffic flow and reduce fuel consumption. However, this is challenging for operational and functional safety.

ER localized bestrophin1 activates Ca2+ dependent ion channels TMEM16A and SK4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Bestrophins form Ca2+ activated Cl- channels and regulate intercellular Ca2+ signaling1. We demonstrate that bestrophin 1 is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where it physically interacts with stromal interacting molecule 1 (Stim1), the ER ...

Identifying barriers and potentials of integrated assessments of sustainable urban development and adaptation to rising sea levels

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Current adaptation responses to sea-level rise tend to focus on protecting existing infrastructure resulting in unsustainable adaptation pathways. At the same time, urban development compromises a city’s adaptive capacity if the climate risk component is

First Observations about Response Times and Connectivity in a Vehicles Platooning Experiment

open access: yesFindings, 2021
A key question about cooperative vehicle longitudinal control is reactivity, which determines the future of road safety, and capacity. In adaptive cruise control (ACC), the controller adapts the speed of the vehicle to its immediate leader’s speed ...

Frequency dispersion reduction and bond conversion on n-type GaAs by in situ surface oxide removal and passivation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The method of surface preparation on n-type GaAs, even with the presence of an amorphous-Si interfacial passivation layer, is shown to be a critical step in the removal of accumulation capacitance frequency dispersion.

Conjunctive Analysis of Case Configurations (CACC)

open access: yes, 2021
This chapter introduces Conjunctive Analysis of Case Configurations (CACC) for the study of crime and place. After introducing CACC as an alternative approach to variable-oriented thinking, we present its conceptual underpinnings and limitations. We then provide a step-by-step tutorial on how to conduct a CACC, accompanied by an example using public ...

Calcium-activated chloride current expression in axotomized sensory neurons: what for?

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2012
Calcium-activated chloride currents (CaCCs) are activated by an increase in intracellular calcium concentration. Peripheral nerve injury induces the expression of CaCCs in a subset of adult sensory neurons in primary culture including mechano-and ...
