Summertime and the drivin’ is easy? Daylight Saving Time and vehicle accidents. LEQS Paper No. 150/2019 December 2019 [PDF]

, 2019
Although it is commonly understood that light conditions affect driving behaviour, detailed evidence is scarce especially for EU countries. In this paper we use the exogenous variation in daylight caused by Daylight Saving Time (DST) shifts to examine ...

Spiro‑Linked Double Tetraphenylethenes: Solid‐State Emission and Circularly Polarized Luminescence Imaging

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Two spirobisanthracene‐tetraphenylethene (SBA‐TPE) hybrid compounds are synthesized and their photophysical properties in the solid state reported. Circularly polarized luminescence in aggregates, films and dispersions is evaluated. Circularly polarized luminescence imaging is evaluated over crystals revealing discrimination of different types of ...

RT‐DETR‐DA for Complex Scenes: Distracted Driving Detection With Feature Interaction and Dynamic Perception

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work proposes RT‐DETR‐DA, an enhanced real‐time detection framework for identifying distracted driving in complex, real‐world environments. The model introduces a dynamic sparse gating multiscale attention module and an attention‐guided dual‐path fusion module to strengthen multiscale perception and cross‐layer feature interaction.
