Training‐Efficient Personalised Knee Joint Moment Estimation via an Incremental Broad Learning System

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Knee joint moment estimation is a critical component in biomechanical analysis, with profound implications for rehabilitation assessment and the development of assistive devices like exoskeletons. However, existing data‐driven approaches often rely on highly complex network architectures in pursuit of high accuracy, resulting in inherently ...

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Brood parasitism reduces but does not prevent Bombus terrestris reproductive success

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Graphical depiction of the colony splitting process. Throughout figures in this paper, results pertaining to host success are represented in blue, and cuckoo success is represented in red. Abstract Cuckoo bumblebees are obligate brood parasites that must invade a colony of their host bumblebee species in order to reproduce.

Dynamic Modeling and Simulation of Human-machine Carrying Exoskeleton Loading on Slopes

Jixie chuandong
In order to achieve accurate control of the lower extremity exoskeleton, the joint torque was analyzed when the exoskeleton climbed the slope with different loads.

Potential Correlation Between Bombus lantschouensis Thoracic Morphology and Flight Behavior

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Potential correlation between Bombus lantschouensis thoracic morphology and flight behavior. ABSTRACT Remarkably little modern work has investigated the thoracic structures of insects and their relationship to flight locomotion. Most studies focus exclusively on either morphology or flight kinematics.

Unravelling Evolutionary Dynamics of Female Sexual Cannibalism and Male Reproductive Strategies in Spiders

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Sexual cannibalism (SC), where one mating partner consumes the other in the context of mating, is especially prevalent among spiders. However, the evolution of SC in spiders is still not fully understood. We review key hypotheses for SC and explore how female‐initiated SC has driven the evolution of various male counter‐adaptations to mitigate its ...
