TreeON: Reconstructing 3D Tree Point Clouds from Orthophotos and Heightmaps
Abstract We present TreeON, a novel neural‐based framework for reconstructing detailed 3D tree point clouds from sparse top‐down geodata, using only a single orthophoto and its corresponding Digital Surface Model (DSM). Our method introduces a new training supervision strategy that combines both geometric supervision and a differentiable shadow and ...

Terrain Synthesis and Authoring based on Iso‐Contours
Abstract Digital terrains are central to realistic landscape depiction, yet authoring tools must balance perceptual realism with intuitive artistic control. We propose a compact vector‐based representation that models terrain as nested iso‐contours, inspired by geomorphology and cartography.

StayStill: a large‐scale 3D idle animation dataset
Abstract Idle animations are essential for virtual characters, as they convey realistic behaviour during inactive states. While automatic animation generation has been widely studied, limited attention has been given to idle motion due to the absence of dedicated training datasets.

Abstract Aim To investigate whether maternal deficiency of vitamin D in early pregnancy increases the risk of cerebral palsy (CP) in offspring. Method This registry and biobank‐based case–control study consisted of mother–child pairs from Scania, Sweden. Cases (n = 322) were identified from a nationwide CP‐register born between 1995 and 2014.

DISCORDANT EFFECTS OF ENALAPRIL AND LISINOPRIL ON SYSTEMIC AND RENAL HEMODYNAMICS
Obective: To investigate whether there are quantitative differences between the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors enalapril and lisinopril with respect to their influence on renal versus systemic hemodynamics in humans.

Risk management strategies in higher education
Abstract Higher education centres are facing escalating risks, such as increasing competition from a growing number of higher education organisations, as well as greater exposure to more complex regulatory frameworks and external evaluations. Consequently, university risk management has assumed increasing significance.

The microbial degradation of synthetic polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is mediated by diverse α/β‐hydrolases, many of which remain poorly characterized. In this study, we investigated the α/β‐hydrolase SM0281 from Sinorhizobium meliloti and found that it exhibits robust carboxylesterase and polyesterase activities toward PET, PCL ...

ABSTRACT Knowing the relationship between catch per unit effort (CPUE) and population density is crucial for the management of recreational fisheries. We conducted standardized angling for pike in 16 lakes (3.4–22.1 ha) to test whether lure type, color, and pike density affect CPUE and the size of captured fish.
