Engineering Apprenticeships: Youth Transitions, Industrial Capital and the Role of Working‐Class Households

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using biographical methods, the study explores the lives of 34 young people undertaking engineering apprenticeships in Teesside, Northeast England. It examines why working‐class youth in a deindustrialised region might be attracted to engineering, how they might secure apprenticeship, and the invaluable role households play in orchestrating ...

Region‐of‐interest geometry optimization for shooting‐distance estimation from flash‐pulse infrared thermography of gunshot residue on textile targets

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Shooting‐distance estimation from gunshot‐residue (GSR) patterns on textiles is affected by substrate properties, residue distribution, and region‐of‐interest (ROI) definition. This study evaluated how ROI geometry influences muzzle‐to‐target distance regression from flash‐pulse infrared thermography of GSR‐related thermal patterns.

A Lightweight Caching Decision Strategy Based on Node Edge-Degree for Information Centric Networking

IEEE Access
In-networkcaching as a core function in ICN can greatly improve the content distribution efficiency and reduce redundant network traffic. It is a challenge to design caching strategies in ICN to improve the performance of in-network caching.

Baseline Cortisol and Behavioral Phenotype Are Linked to Context‐Dependent Spatial Cognition and Space Use in Giant Pandas

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Baseline cortisol and repeatable behavioral phenotypes were associated with context‐dependent spatial cognition in giant pandas. Individuals differed in spatial search performance under stable and changing resource conditions. Exploratory GPS analyses revealed directionally consistent but non‐significant patterns of space use in novel environments ...

A Wildlife Multi‐Modal Recognition Method Based on Infrared Camera Images Using MWAC

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
A multimodal wild wildlife classification model MWAC consists of two parts:(1) Wavelet KAN module (WDS‐KAN) for image feature extraction, and (2) Label Correlated Text Extraction module (LC‐BERT) for text feature extraction. ABSTRACT Nowadays, infrared camera technology has become an important tool for large‐scale monitoring and assessment of wildlife ...

Local Search and the Evolution of World Models

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract An open question regarding how people develop their models of the world is how new candidates are generated for consideration out of infinitely many possibilities. We discuss the role that evolutionary mechanisms play in this process. Specifically, we argue that when it comes to developing a global world model, innovation is necessarily ...

Conserving Rodent Pests in Transition Toward Endangered Status

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Rodent control invariably takes place in the context of ecosystems heavily modified by agriculture. Together, they are potent drivers of rodent decline and endangerment. Nineteen percent of 2349 rodent species evaluated in the IUCN Red List of threatened species are of some conservation concern.

Video caching and scheduling with edge cooperation

Digital Communications and Networks
In this paper, we explore a distributed collaborative caching and computing model to support the distribution of adaptive bit rate video streaming. The aim is to reduce the average initial buffer delay and improve the quality of user experience. Considering the difference between global and local video popularities and the time-varying characteristics ...

UNIQAT: An open‐source toolkit for reproducible image quality assessment in marine surveys

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Modern marine surveys generate tens of thousands of underwater images per expedition, yet many are unusable due to image quality deterioration. Manual quality screening is labour‐intensive, subjective and inconsistent across observers and teams, hindering reproducible science, creating large backlogs of unprocessed imagery, and limiting real ...
