Beyond Sexual Selection: Natural Selection Related Camouflage and Thermoregulation Shape Sexual Color Dimorphism in Diploderma Lizards

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Integrating comparative spectrometry, image analysis, and thermal modeling, we reveal that (1) females optimize crypsis via background matching, (2) males prioritize high‐contrast disruptive patterning at a significant thermoregulatory cost (reduced solar heat gain), and (3) habitat‐specific monomorphism in Diploderma slowinskii underscores ecological ...

Accuracy of occurrence and abundance estimates from insect metabarcoding

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract DNA metabarcoding—high‐throughput sequencing of barcode regions from bulk samples—has become a key tool for insect biodiversity assessment. Yet, how methodological choices affect the accuracy of metabarcoding data remains insufficiently explored. In this paper, we ask: (1) How does the lysis method (non‐destructive lysis vs.

ReMoDe – Recursive modality detection in distributions of ordinal data

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The detection of the number of modes in distributions of ordinal data is relevant for applied researchers across disciplines, from uncovering polarization to detecting incidence groups in clinical symptom scales. Yet, established modality detection methods are either purely descriptive or not developed for ordinal data.

RotGS: Rotation‐Guided 3D Gaussian Splatting for Turntable Sequences without Structure‐from‐Motion

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract The field of 3D reconstruction from multi‐view images has advanced rapidly thanks to 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS), which enables efficient and photorealistic scene representation. However, optimizing 3DGS requires high‐quality images from various viewpoints with accurate camera poses.

Neural Local Inter‐reflection Modeling for Garment Fold Rendering

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Realistic garment rendering requires simulating complex multi‐bounce light paths within intricate fold geometries. In these regions, conventional path tracing is computationally expensive as light becomes trapped, necessitating high bounce counts for convergence.

Establishing Shape Correspondences: A Survey

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Shape correspondence between surfaces in 3D is a central problem in geometry processing, concerned with establishing meaningful relations between surfaces. While all correspondence problems share this goal, specific formulations can differ significantly: Downstream applications require certain properties that correspondences must satisfy ...
