Deforestation and Efficiency: Insights From Forest Transition in the Brazilian Cerrado

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper estimates technical efficiency (TE) and environmental efficiency (EE) of agricultural production at the municipal level of the Brazilian Cerrado in 2006 and 2017, and investigates their underlying mechanisms in relation to forest transition theory.

Multimodal Learning with Rashomon Analysis for Battery Discharge Capacity Prediction

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Multimodal fusion integrates composition, crystal‐structure, and radial‐distribution descriptors to predict battery discharge capacity. Rashomon analysis across near‐optimal models reveals that explanatory variation is structured rather than arbitrary, separating stable mechanistic signals from model‐contingent attributions and providing a more ...

Modular Electronic Microrobots With Onboard Sensor‐Program‐Steered Locomotion

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Modular electronic smartlet microrobots integrate ambient‐light energy harvesting, photodetection, programmable CMOS control, and bubble‐based actuation within a sub‐millimeter fold‐up architecture. A 58‐bit on‐board CMOS chiplet enables sensor–program steered switching between independently addressable actuators, achieving closed‐loop 2D navigation in

Retinal Vessel Segmentation: A Comprehensive Review From Classical Methods to Deep Learning Advances (1982–2025)

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Four decades of retinal vessel segmentation research (1982–2025) are synthesized, spanning classical image processing, machine learning, and deep learning paradigms. A meta‐analysis of 428 studies establishes a unified taxonomy and highlights performance trends, generalization capabilities, and clinical relevance.

Degradation Mechanisms, Encapsulation‐Based Stabilization, and Analytical Detection of Vitamin A

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vitamin A is an important lipid‐soluble micronutrient essential for vision, immune function, and overall growth and development. However, vitamin A is unstable and susceptible to environmental factors because of its conjugated structure and inherent chemical reactivity.

A perspective from the Mesozoic: Evolutionary changes of the mammalian skull and their influence on feeding efficiency and high‐frequency hearing

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...
