Types of Struggles in Disrupted Interaction: A Case of Hard‐of‐Hearing Employees

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Everyone experiences disrupted interactions in their everyday life. However, research indicates that people with functional impairments are particularly exposed to patterns of interactional inequality at work. Despite this, little is known about the specific disrupted interactions in everyday life and the various types of interactional struggles this ...

GIWAXS using microbeam applied in halide perovskite films for high spectral resolution and mapping capability

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
This article demonstrates that microbeam GIWAXS (µ‐GIWAXS) effectively overcomes the distorting footprint effects of conventional GIWAXS analysis of perovskite films. This advancement not only delivers higher reciprocal‐space resolution data but also unlocks the unique capability to spatially map microstructural inhomogeneity, which is vital for the ...

Reduced fertilization regimes could boost biocontrol service without reducing crop yield

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Fertilization level influences pest control effectiveness in tomato crops. High fertilization increases plant growth and aphid density but reduces the performance of the parasitoid Aphidius ervi. In contrast, the predator Adalia bipunctata maintains consistent aphid suppression regardless of fertilization regime.

Story2Board: A Training‐Free Approach for Expressive Visual Storytelling

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present Story2Board, a training‐free framework for expressive storyboard generation from natural language. Existing methods narrowly focus on subject identity, overlooking key aspects of visual storytelling such as spatial composition, background evolution, and narrative pacing.

Variable‐Rate Texture Compression: Real‐Time Rendering with JPEG

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Although variable‐rate compressed image formats such as JPEG are widely used to efficiently encode images, they have not found their way into real‐time rendering due to special requirements such as random access to individual texels. In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of variable‐rate texture compression on modern GPUs using the ...
