Recent advances of non‐invasive sensors for smart wearable respiratory monitoring

VIEW, EarlyView.
Respiration contains rich physiological and pathological information, making it one of the most fundamental and continuous vital signs. Respiration monitoring is a non‐invasive and simple, but incredibly powerful, tool for assessing health, managing disease, and tracking fitness.

Spraying drones: efficacy of integrating an avian repellent with drone hazing to elicit blackbird flock dispersal and abandonment of sunflower fields

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Multiple management strategies exist to combat bird damage to agriculture. We explored combining two tools, drones as frightening devices and an avian repellent, to assess effectiveness of an integrated method to deter large flocks on complex landscapes. We evaluated the ability of a spraying drone (DJI Agras MG‐1P) deploying Avian Control (i.e. active

Wavelet transform of Fractal Interpolation Function

, 2012
In the present paper, the wavelet transform of Fractal Interpolation Function (FIF) is studied. The wavelet transform of FIF is obtained through two different methods. The first method uses the functional equation through which FIF is constructed. By this method, it is shown that the FIF belongs to Lipschitz class of order $ $ under certain conditions

Measuring up: an afterword

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Abstract Towards the end of their Introduction, the editors of this special issue suggest that a principal challenge in ethnographic description is ‘how to measure the measures of others’. It is their own measure of persons, say, or of transactions, on which anthropologists frequently draw in adjudicating social phenomena, not least when characterizing

Sociology and The Complexity of What Is Missing

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT What is ‘missed’ by sociological literature underpinned by assumptions of presence that a missing approach can rectify? I appropriate a metaphysics of presence and an alternative focus on what is missing as ontological foci to revisit complexity studies in sociology.

Trading Zones Between Thick and Thin: Anthropological Description as Scaffold or Mosaic

American Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Referring to the work of historian of science Peter Galison, I argue that anthropology requires thin description as an essential counterpart for thick description. Thin accounts provide the scaffolding within which thick descriptions sit. Galison uses the idea of a “trading zone” connecting different communities who, despite their differences (
