TopCas: Topology‐Gated Cas12a via DNA‐RNA Chimeric Circular crRNA for Amplification‐Free Nucleic Acid Detection and Conditional Gene Editing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The TopCas platform utilizes an engineered DNA‐RNA chimeric circular crRNA to establish topology‐gated control over CRISPR‐Cas12a activity, enabling target‐triggered self‐catalytic amplification (preamplification‐free). This system seamlessly integrates highly sensitive molecular diagnostics with conditionally controlled gene editing, demonstrating ...

Artificial Intelligence in Autonomous Mobile Robot Navigation: From Classical Approaches to Intelligent Adaptation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping autonomous mobile robot navigation beyond classical pipelines. This review analyzes how AI techniques are integrated into core navigation tasks, including path planning and control, localization and mapping, perception, and context‐aware decision‐making. Learning‐based, probabilistic, and soft‐computing methods

Preclusion for Radix Triangular Mesh [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper we find the values of mp(T n ) and mp 1 (T n ) when n(n+1)≡0 (mod 4). Every minimum matching preclusion set in an n-triangular mesh network is trivial. Also, mp(G) ≤ δ(G), where δ(G) is the minimum degree of G and mp 1 (G) ≤ v e (G)

Hidden in the Labour Market: An Intersectional Latent Class Analysis of Discouraged Workers in Australia

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study employs an intersectionality‐informed latent class analysis (LCA) to examine the hidden diversity of discouraged workers in Australia. Drawing on nationally representative data from the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia Survey, we identified six empirically distinct subgroups defined by intersecting demographic and ...

Bridging Theory and Prediction: A Hybrid SEM and Machine Learning Approach to Optimize Lean Construction for Megaproject Sustainability in China

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Construction megaprojects, large‐scale, complex, and capital‐intensive, are particularly prone to inefficiencies, cost overruns, delays, and environmental degradation due to fragmented workflows, stakeholder misalignment, and resource intensity.

Twenty years of dynamic occupancy models: a review of applications and look to the future

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Since their introduction over 20 years ago, dynamic occupancy models (DOMs) have become a powerful and flexible framework for estimating species occupancy across space and time while accounting for imperfect detection. As their popularity has increased and extensions have further expanded their capabilities, DOMs have been applied to increasingly ...
