Vision‐Based Handover and Organization of Robotic Scrub Nurse for Seamless Surgical Flow

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a pose estimation‐based robotic scrub nurse (PERSN) that assists surgical procedures by estimating the surgeon's hand position, orientation, and grasping state, along with the constraint‐based 6D pose of surgical instruments. User evaluations show that PERSN provides greater immediate usability and reduces physical demand compared ...

Predicting Crystal Structures and Ionic Conductivities in Li3 YCl6−x Brx Halide Solid Electrolytes Using a Fine‐Tuned Machine Learning Interatomic Potential

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study refines the Crystal Hamiltonian Graph Network to predict energies, structures, and lithium‐ion dynamics in halide electrolytes. By generating ordered structural models and using an iterative fine‐tuning workflow, we achieve near‐ab initio accuracy for phase stability and ionic transport predictions.

Redistributive land reforms, agricultural productivity, and structural change: New cross‐national evidence

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.
