Does Contract Farming Reduce Pesticide Use? Panel Data Evidence From Smallholder Farmers in China

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The inappropriate and excessive use of pesticides poses a major threat to human and ecosystem health in the agri‐food sector. While existing studies have examined the potential of contract farming to address this issue, most have focused on large‐scale farms and relied on small or transactional datasets, often leaving the role of crop‐specific

Exploiting Ferroelectric and Spintronic Dynamics for Neural Network Computation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Ferroelectric and spintronic devices, relying on the control of polarization and magnetization, offer intrinsically fast, durable, energy‐efficient, and low‐latency building blocks for analog in‐memory computing. The hysteretic dynamics of an order parameter are leveraged to provide nonvolatile, multistate memory and nonlinear switching. Brain‐inspired

Toward Complex In‐Car Environment Human–Vehicle Interactions Through Smart Glasses and sEMG‐Based Gesture Recognition

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study proposes a novel weighted random forest multimodal fusion method that combines smart glasses and sEMG data for in‐vehicle gesture interaction. It realizes stable performance in dim, occluded, and other constrained scenarios, providing feasible solutions and laying a foundation for universal human–machine interaction.

Integrating Reinforcement Learning With Explainable Artificial Intelligence for Real‐Time Clinical Decision Support in Dynamic Healthcare Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A hybrid Reinforcement Learning–Explainable AI framework integrates SHAP and LIME explanations directly into a Deep Q‐Network inference loop for real‐time ICU decision support. Trained on 18 142 mechanically ventilated stays from the eICU database, the system attains 93.0% decision accuracy, 20% fewer errors than RL alone, and a 91% clinician trust ...

Vision‐Based Tactile Finger Integrating Fingerpad and Nail Sensing for Robotic Manipulation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This vision‐based tactile finger captures nail force and fingerpad force, contact position, and in‐plane orientation with one internal camera. An external camera recognizes the target and presets finger inclination from object height. The compact dual‐sensing design supports tactile‐guided table contact and reliable grasping of objects ranging from ...
