PBR‐Inspired Controllable Diffusion for Image Generation

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite recent advances in text‐to‐image generation, controlling geometric layout and PBR material properties in synthesized scenes remains challenging. We present a pipeline that first produces a G‐buffer (albedo, normals, depth, roughness, shading, and metallic) from a text prompt and then renders a final image through a PBR‐inspired branch ...

Trauma, Testimony and Lower Secondary Holocaust Education in Rywka Lipszyc's and Otto Wolf's Diaries

Children &Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines how Holocaust‐related trauma is represented in two diaries written by Jewish adolescents during the Second World War: Rywka Lipszyc's diary and Otto Wolf's diary. The article combines a thematically guided close reading of the diaries with a didactic discussion of their possible use in lower secondary literary education ...

Emerging applications of large language models in ecology and conservation science

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Large language models (LLMs) mark a major development in artificial intelligence, with potentially transformative implications for ecology and conservation science. Built on advanced deep‐learning architectures, these models can support a wide range of tasks. We reviewed emerging applications of LLMs, drawing on the wider scientific literature

Bioethics and the World Order: A Curious Coincidence Between Chinese and African Approaches

Developing World Bioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The post‐1945 world order is standardly pictured as a Westphalian system, in which each state is equal under the law with sovereign authority over its territories. This paper argues that the Westphalian system is changing and examines the implications for bioethics. We show that cross‐border health, economic, ecologic, and sociopolitical risks

High-Accuracy and Real-Time Fingerprint-Based Continual Learning Localization System in Dynamic Environment

Sensors
In dynamic environments, localization accuracy often deteriorates due to an outdated or invalid database. Traditional approaches typically use Transfer Learning (TL) to address this issue, but TL suffers from the problem of catastrophic forgetting.

Experiences of receiving and delivering a novel complex intervention for type 1 diabetes and disordered eating: Process evaluation of the Safe management of people with Type 1 diabetes and EAting Disorders studY (STEADY)

Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
Overview of participant and healthcare professional experiences in the STEADY process evaluation. Key themes highlight the importance of an integrated and multidisciplinary approach to type 1 diabetes and disordered eating, positive therapeutic relationship, and flexible person‐centred care.

Robust Policy Optimization to Prevent Catastrophic Forgetting

CoRR
Large language models are commonly trained through multi-stage post-training: first via RLHF, then fine-tuned for other downstream objectives. Yet even small downstream updates can compromise earlier learned behaviors (e.g., safety), exposing a brittleness known as catastrophic forgetting.

Deregulation, government failure, and tragedy: The Report of Phase 2 of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry

Economic Affairs, EarlyView.
Abstract The Inquiry into the fire at Grenfell Tower, London, in 2017 has exposed the failures that led to the tragedy in a commendably exhaustive manner. But the explanation of those failures is seriously inadequate. First, they are attributed to deregulation, when the Inquiry itself details the ways in which the cladding of the building was subject ...

Catastrophic Forgetting in Deep Learning: A Comprehensive Taxonomy

Journal of the Brazilian Computer Society
Deep Learning models have achieved remarkable performance in tasks such as image classification or generation, often surpassing human accuracy. However, they can struggle to learn new tasks and update their knowledge without access to previous data, leading to a significant loss of accuracy known as Catastrophic Forgetting (CF).
