Breeding and foraging habitat are important in determining foraging ranges of sympatric generalist species

open access: yesIbis, Volume 168, Issue 1, Page 259-292, January 2026.
How far animals travel to gather food for offspring or themselves is a central component of ecology. Among birds, the ‘foraging range’ (straight‐line distance between a central place and a destination) is used to assess potential interactions with anthropogenic stressors such as wind farms.

Improving Large‐Scale Population Estimates and Assessments of the Ecological Importance of Three Epifaunal Bivalve Species by Combining Distribution and Abundance Models

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
Epifaunal bivalves (e.g., mussels and oysters) include reef building organisms that provide several important ecological functions in coastal marine environments. Using Gradient Boosting Machine models, the distribution and abundance patterns of three important species were modeled on the Skagerrak coast of western Sweden.

Compact Environment-Invariant Codes for Robust Visual Place Recognition

open access: yes, 2017
Robust visual place recognition (VPR) requires scene representations that are invariant to various environmental challenges such as seasonal changes and variations due to ambient lighting conditions during day and night.

A Risk Manager for Intrusion Tolerant Systems: Enhancing HAL 9000 With New Scoring and Data Sources

open access: yesSoftware: Practice and Experience, Volume 55, Issue 12, Page 1915-1930, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Intrusion Tolerant Systems (ITS) aim to maintain system security despite adversarial presence by limiting the impact of successful attacks. Current ITS risk managers rely heavily on public databases like NVD and Exploit DB, which suffer from long delays in vulnerability evaluation, reducing system responsiveness. Objective This work

A schema for cryptographic keys generation using hybrid biometrics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Biometric identifiers refer to unique physical properties or behavioural attributes of individuals. Some of the well known biometric identifiers are voice, finger prints, retina or iris, facial structure etc. In our daily interaction with others directly

Fast Locality-Sensitive Hashing Frameworks for Approximate Near Neighbor Search

open access: yes, 2018
The Indyk-Motwani Locality-Sensitive Hashing (LSH) framework (STOC 1998) is a general technique for constructing a data structure to answer approximate near neighbor queries by using a distribution $\mathcal{H}$ over locality-sensitive hash functions ...

Environmental drivers of Atrina zelandica habitat suitability in Tauranga Harbour

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1303-1323, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Fan shells (Family Pinnidae) have high ecological importance but are facing global declines including in New Zealand. Given the scarcity of data regarding the degree of these losses, understanding current population spatial extents and distributional drivers is needed for restoration management.

Succinct data structures for representing equivalence classes

open access: yes, 2013
Given a partition of an n element set into equivalence classes, we consider time-space tradeoffs for representing it to support the query that asks whether two given elements are in the same equivalence class.

A depth–spatial alignment method for multi‐source point clouds on large‐scale construction sites

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 29, Page 5719-5746, 9 December 2025.
Abstract Three‐dimensional (3D) site models form the digital foundation for modern construction management. However, creating these models from multi‐source imagery presents two key challenges: accurately georeferencing camera poses during wide‐view acquisition and precisely aligning multiple point clouds that possess non‐uniform accuracy.
