ABSTRACT Climate variability is affecting the productivity, profitability, and resilience of smallholder dairy producers in developing countries. The adoption of climate‐smart (CS) dairy practices has been promoted to mitigate these negative effects. However, while interest in dairy CS practices is growing, empirical evidence on their adoption patterns

Comparing exergy and heat pump work in distillation systems
Abstract This study compares the exergy supplied to a distillation column with the actual energy consumption of a heat pump‐assisted distillation (HPAD) system. It evaluates the reliability of exergy as a proxy for heat pump work demand in such systems.

CoRoFR: Community Detection of Feature Graph Improves Feature Selection Using Robust Fuzzy Rough Set
In machine learning, features often function as communities in many tasks, especially in medicine. However, existing feature selection methods struggle to mine feature collaborations, which can boost predictive performance. Moreover, they are noise‐sensitive, leading to suboptimal feature selection and accuracy degradation.
