Towards scalable insect monitoring: Ultra‐lightweight CNNs as on‐device triggers for insect camera traps

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Camera traps, combined with AI, have emerged to achieve automated, scalable biodiversity monitoring. However, passive infrared (PIR) sensors that typically trigger camera traps are poorly suited for detecting small, fast‐moving ectotherms such as insects. Insects comprise over half of all animal species and are key components of ecosystems and

A review of autonomous reef monitoring structures (ARMS) for monitoring hard‐bottom benthic biodiversity

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Amid increasing anthropogenic pressures on ecosystems, standardised biodiversity monitoring is critical for assessing biodiversity change. Marine hard‐bottom habitats, though ubiquitous and biodiverse, present challenges for biodiversity monitoring due to their complex structure and limited accessibility. Autonomous reef monitoring structures (

Leveraging machine learning and accelerometry to classify animal behaviours with uncertainty

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Animal‐worn sensors have revolutionised the study of animal behaviour and ecology. Accelerometers, which measure changes in acceleration across planes of movement, are increasingly being used in conjunction with machine learning models to classify animal behaviours across taxa and research questions.

Corruption Detection Through Textual Analysis: Evidence From Eurozone Banks

open access: yesBusiness Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research investigates the disclosure of banking institutions by analyzing their annual reports to identify the determinants capable of signaling possible corruption scandals. A textual analysis was conducted on the financial reports of 42 Eurozone banks from the period 2013 to 2022.

Fused Collapsing for Wide BVH Construction

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We propose a novel approach for constructing wide bounding volume hierarchies on the GPU by integrating a simple bottom‐up collapsing procedure within an existing binary bottom‐up BVH builder. Our approach directly constructs a wide BVH without traversing a temporary binary BVH as done by previous approaches and achieves 1.4 – 1.6 × lower ...
