Disproportionate Environmental Risks: A Descriptive Analysis of Chemical Facilities and Accidents in the United States

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using nationwide data on the US Environmental Protection Agency's Risk Management Plan (RMP) program, we examine the proportions of underserved populations living near facilities that use extremely hazardous chemicals, both before and after accidents involving fires, explosions, and/or toxic vapors occur.

Sports Activity Recognition Using Textile‐Based Sensor Fusion and Complex‐Valued Residual Convolutional Neural Networks

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Motion artifacts in electrocardiographic signals, conventionally dismissed as noise, are shown to encode discriminative activity information. A smart t‐shirt fusing textile strain sensors with textile ECG electrodes, processed through a complex‐valued residual network, recognizes 12 sport activities.

DyCoDiff: Dynamic Collaborative Diffusion for Text‐Image‐Audio‐to‐Video

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
DyCoDiff enables text, image, and audio conditions to collaborate before temporal video generation. A multimodal condition fusion layer injects gated text‐centric fusion into the temporal branch, while collaborative losses align generated videos with semantic, visual, and dynamic audio cues for rhythm‐sensitive text‐image‐audio‐to‐video synthesis.
