Deformable Attention Multiscale Feature Fusion Network‐Dehaze: An Adaptive Image Dehazing Method Based on Deformable Attention Multiscale Fusion Network

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This paper presents the deformable attention multiscale feature fusion network‐dehaze adaptive image dehazing network, which integrates three core modules (revised residual shrinkage unit, multiscale attention, cross‐scale feature fusion). It incorporates deformable convolution and multiscale attention mechanisms to address the detail loss issue of ...

Metasurfaces and Metadevices for Topological Electromagnetic Waves

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
Optical topologies refer to diverse topological localized structures made by diverse parameters of light fields, such as vortices, skyrmions, and hopfions. This article navigates a direction of metasurface‐based integrated devices for generation, manipulation and detection of novel topologies of light, which would be a rapidly growing interdisciplinary

Dynamical Analysis of Nearby ClustErs. Automated astrometry from the ground: precision proper motions over wide field

open access: yes, 2013
The kinematic properties of the different classes of objects in a given association hold important clues about its member's history, and offer a unique opportunity to test the predictions of the various models of stellar formation and evolution.

Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy

Stochastic optimization framework (SOF) for computer-optimized design, engineering, and performance of multi-dimensional systems and processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Many systems and processes, both natural and artificial, may be described by parameter-driven mathematical and physical models. We introduce a generally applicable Stochastic Optimization Framework (SOF) that can be interfaced to or wrapped around such ...

Think Global, Act Local? Fortune 500 Business Strategies for Sustainable Cities and Communities (SDG 11)

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The role of business towards achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has been well established. However, SDG contextualization continues to pose a conundrum, particularly for firms operating in multiple contexts. This becomes even more problematic in the case of SDG 11, the only goal in the sustainable development agenda directly

A search for L dwarf binary systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We present analysis of HST Planetary Camera images of twenty L dwarfs identified in the course of the Two Micron All-Sky Survey. Four of the targets have faint, red companions at separations between 0.07 and 0.29 arcseconds (1.6 to 7.6 AU).

Impact Measuring in Sustainable Ventures: A Process Perspective

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Impact measurement is crucial for sustainable ventures to quantify their contribution to sustainable development. Although research has highly focused on impact measurement as a static activity, we conduct a qualitative study to explore how impact measuring as a process unfolds over time.

Cleaning sky survey databases using Hough Transform and Renewal String approaches [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Large astronomical databases obtained from sky surveys such as the SuperCOSMOS Sky Survey (SSS) invariably suffer from spurious records coming from artefactual effects of the telescope, satellites and junk objects in orbit around earth and physical ...
