Individualized Pathfinding in Rugged Open Terrains Using Semantic Navigation Meshes

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We introduce semantic navigation meshes for complex outdoor terrains, partitioning space into regions with coherent semantic properties like slope or vegetation density. The resulting graphs enable efficient pathfinding with agent‐specific, parameterized cost functions without precomputation, accelerating search while maintaining path quality close to ...

FaceIt: Real‐Time On‐Device Identity‐Preserving Portrait Animation

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
A real‐time, on‐device algorithm for animating a single portrait image using detailed facial expressions and motions from a driving video achieving visual quality that can outperform even techniques with significantly higher computational overhead. Abstract Recently, significant progress has been made in generating expressive and temporally coherent ...

The depth and breadth of capitalism at the Cape

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Limited liability company legislation was introduced to the Cape Colony in 1861. An amendment in 1892 led to wider adoption, expanding and diversifying the capital market. Using novel data from the Cape Joint Stock Archive between 1892 and 1902, this paper examines who invested, where capital flowed, and how these patterns shaped firm outcomes

Price and Non‐price Terms of Syndicated Loans to Technology Firms

Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines whether US technology firms receive different price and nonprice terms in the syndicated loan market compared to nontechnology firms. The analysis reveals that technology borrowers face significantly less favorable terms, including 12 basis points higher loan spreads, approximately 5%$\%$ shorter maturities, and loan sizes ...

Geographical distribution of the Pinnated Bittern (Botaurus pinnatus): Update and seasonal movement pattern

Ibis, EarlyView.
The Pinnated Bittern Botaurus pinnatus (Ardeidae) is a widely distributed Neotropical wading bird whose distribution and seasonal status remain poorly resolved. Discrepancies among published literature, citizen science records and the range currently assumed by BirdLife International indicate that both its geographical distribution and migratory ...
