Deep Reinforcement Learning Approaches for Sensor Data Collection by a Swarm of UAVs
This article presents four decentralized reinforcement learning algorithms for autonomous data harvesting and investigates how collaboration improves collection efficiency. It also presents strategies to minimize training times by improving model flexibility, enabling algorithms to operate with varying number of agents and sensors.

Deep Learning Methods for Assessing Time‐Variant Nonlinear Signatures in Clutter Echoes
Motion classification from biosonar echoes in clutter presents a fundamental challenge: extracting structured information from stochastic interference. Deep learning successfully discriminates object speed and direction from bat‐inspired signals, achieving 97% accuracy with frequency‐modulated calls but only 48% with constant‐frequency tones.

Abstract Premise Insect herbivory is a major biotic factor shaping plant populations and driving the evolution of defensive traits. Polyploidy (whole‐genome duplication) often induces substantial phenotypic and genotypic changes that may affect species interactions, including herbivory.
