Parturition timing and the pre‐ and post‐partum behaviour of female moose assessed using animal‐borne video and movement‐based approaches

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Limited information on moose calving behaviour, including parturition timing, cow‐calf interactions, and pre‐ and post‐partum movement patterns hinder our ability to define calving phenology and habitat use. GPS‐collars were deployed on 89 female moose over five years, including eight collars equipped with animal‐borne video and environmental data ...

Electromagnetic cloak design with mono-objective and bi-objective optimizers: seeking the best tradeoff between protection and invisibility

EPJ Applied Metamaterials
We revisit the design of cloaks, without resorting to any geometric transform. Cancellation techniques and anomalous resonances have been applied for this purpose. Instead of a deductive reasoning, we propose a novel mono-objective optimization algorithm,

A secured cloud‐medical data sharing with A‐BRSA and Salp ‐Ant Lion Optimisation Algorithm

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sharing medical data among healthcare providers, researchers, and patients is crucial for efficient healthcare services. Cloud‐assisted smart healthcare (s‐healthcare) systems have made it easier to store EHRs effectively. However, the traditional encryption algorithms used to secure this data can be vulnerable to attacks if the encryption key

Bio‐Inspired Optimisation Methods Applied to Low Carbon Power and Energy Problems: A Survey

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bio‐inspired optimisation methods have been widely applied to complex real‐world problems, particularly in low‐carbon power and energy systems, where optimisation tasks often involve high‐dimensional, constrained and mixed‐integer characteristics.

Application of optimized Kalman filtering in target tracking based on improved Gray Wolf algorithm

Scientific Reports
High precision is a very important index in target tracking. In order to improve the prediction accuracy of target tracking, an optimized Kalman filter approach based on improved Gray Wolf algorithm (IGWO-OKF) is proposed in this paper.

Social network dynamics under experimental manipulations of predation risk and food abundance in wild rock hyraxes

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study combines replicated experimental manipulation, social network analysis, network permutations and meta‐analysis to disentangle active from spatially‐induced changes in animal network structure in the wild. It reveals that short‐term environmental changes primarily alter space use, with limited effects on social structure.

Apex predators exploit advantageous snow conditions across hunting modes

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Advantageous snow conditions—in terms of snow depth and density—are among the most important features of the winter landscape for two apex predators, regardless of hunting strategy. In a warming climate, the knock‐on effects of a diminishing snowpack may reduce the hunting success of multiple large carnivore species.

The Meaning of Work in the Digital Era: A Systematic Review and Research Agenda

Human Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As digital technologies continue to reshape the nature of work, their impact on workers' experience of the meaning of work has attracted growing scholarly interest. However, the existing body of findings remains largely fragmented and conceptually inconsistent.

Cenozoic Tectonics Ignite Mitochondrial Codon Innovations Propelling Canid Body Size Evolution and Transcontinental Radiations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We decode mitochondrial genomes across all extant canids, revealing lineage‐specific codon optimization driven by altitude, predation, and body size. A tripartite framework integrates geological events, metabolic constraints, and adaptive radiation to explain carnivore evolution.
